About HS Produkt
HS Produkt (Hrvatska Specialna Oruzja — Croatian Special Weapons) is based in Karlovac, Croatia and has been manufacturing service pistols since the early 1990s. Their HS2000 pistol was adopted by the Croatian military and police, and was subsequently licensed to Springfield Armory as the XD series for the U.S. civilian market. The partnership with Springfield Armory made HS Produkt's design one of the most commercially successful polymer pistol platforms in America. HS Produkt now sells directly to the U.S. market under their own branding alongside the Springfield XD arrangement.
HS Produkt vs. Springfield XD — What's the Difference?
The HS Produkt pistols and Springfield XD pistols share the same core design and manufacturing origin. HS Produkt pistols are sold without the Springfield Armory branding, typically at lower price points, and may have slightly different feature sets or finishes than the Springfield-branded versions. For buyers who want the XD platform at a lower price, HS Produkt branded pistols offer the same underlying engineering.
