wwillson Posted December 7, 2009 Report Share Posted December 7, 2009 I didn't realize until a couple days ago the XDm can't be sold in California. Why?Wayne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moe Posted December 7, 2009 Report Share Posted December 7, 2009 Probably 2 reasons. They don't make a 10 round magazine for it yet and they might not have submitted it to the Ca DOJ for the stupid drop tests. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted December 8, 2009 Report Share Posted December 8, 2009 They can be sold to law enforcement in Calif.From what I've read, including from a Springfield employee (FWIW), they are simply tired of playing California's expensive certification game. Apparently every variation of each model has to be certified, i.e. identical pistols but one has a SS slide = seperate certification for each. Calif. also requires that the gun cannot fire with the mag removed.The XD was introduced before the certification rule so it can be sold here.
