Description
The Springfield Armory Echelon 4.0C shrinks the acclaimed Echelon into a compact, carry-friendly 9mm with a 4" barrel and short grip module. Its standout Variable Interface System (VIS) lets you direct-mount many popular red dots without adapter plates, and the Tactical Rack U-Dot rear sight with tritium plus a luminescent front gives a fast sight picture day or night.
The serialized Central Operating Group means the fire control unit can move between grip modules, while the black Melonite finish on the barrel and serrated slide resists wear. This California compliant model features a loaded chamber indicator and magazine disconnect with a 10+1 capacity. Shop the Echelon 4.0C at Brute Dynamics in Thousand Oaks, CA and pick it up in store after DROS.
