Description
Anyone who carries the XD-S Mod.2 in .45 ACP knows that little step where the grip frame ends and the magazine base begins. This Springfield Armory XDSG5005 sleeve smooths that transition out. It slides down over the top of the magazine and fills the gap between the bottom of the grip frame and the base of the magazine, giving you a continuous grip surface and a cleaner overall profile. It is a mid-sized sleeve, so it splits the difference nicely between a flush setup and a full extension.
The sleeve is molded from durable, lightweight polymer with a black finish that blends right in with the Mod.2 frame. There is nothing to break in and nothing that adds bulk to your carry gun, which is the whole point of running the XD-S in the first place. Slip it on and you get more real estate for your fingers without changing how the pistol rides in a holster.
What the XDSG5005 Sleeve Does For Your Carry Setup
Grip feel matters more than most folks give it credit for, especially on a slim single-stack .45. Filling that gap under the frame gives your hand a solid, uninterrupted surface to wrap around, which helps with control and follow-up shots. For everyday carry, that continuous profile also means fewer edges to catch on a shirt or jacket when you draw.
Fitting the Mag Sleeve to the XD-S Mod.2
This one is purpose-built for the Springfield XD-S Mod.2 in .45 ACP and works with the factory 6-round magazines for that pistol. Installation is about as simple as it gets: pull the magazine, slide the sleeve down over the top, and you are done. No punches, no tools, no fuss. If you run more than one spare mag, it is worth grabbing a sleeve for each so every magazine gives you the same feel when you reload.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the XDSG5005 mag sleeve actually do?
It slides down over the top of your magazine and fills the gap between the bottom of the grip frame and the base of the magazine. That gives you a continuous grip surface and a cleaner profile for handling and carry. Think of it as smoothing out the step where the frame meets the mag.
Will this sleeve fit my XD-S Mod.2 in .45 ACP?
Yes. This sleeve is made specifically for the Springfield XD-S Mod.2 in .45 ACP and works with the factory 6-round magazines for that pistol. It is not designed for the 9mm Mod.2 mags or other calibers, so match it to your .45 setup.
How hard is it to install the mag sleeve?
Not hard at all. You just drop the magazine, slide the sleeve down over the top, and you are set. There are no tools required and nothing to disassemble.
Should I buy one for each of my magazines?
That is the smart move if you carry spares. Running a sleeve on every mag keeps the grip feel identical from one magazine to the next, so a reload feels the same in your hand every time. They are inexpensive enough that outfitting your whole rotation is easy.
