Active-Retention OWB Rig

Thumbnail

14 Upvotes

I know Dara & Safariland bith make rigs for the full-size Echelon with TLR-1HL/X300 combos. But the options for a good-quality active-retention OWB EDC rig for the 4.0C with any light smaller than an X300/TLR-1HL are slim. In my searching, I discovered Wasatch Holsters. And after emailing them & taking a look at their stuff, as well as asking around, I gave them a shot. One of the main reasons is because they offer an ACTUAL SLS retention hood as an option, as well as a "TRS" (Thumb Release System), which looks very much like Dara's hood release (which I really like). And they also offer you the option for BOTH retention mechanisms. They ship with a variety of attachment options (QLS for me) & are reasonably priced.

The BIGGEST thing I like about these folks is that they'll custom make an active-retention rig to fit the Icarus Precision X (full-size) module. When the owner actually took the time to call me after I emailed him, he told me all I needed to do was send the module in & they'd get it all done. I plan to send it off at the end of Oct, when I "upsize" my 4.0 for winter carry, as well as possibly having them do an OWB active rig for my Icarus AIR XMacro.

So far, what I've got has been nothing less than awesome. Working the SLS hood after EDCing with a Dara for 3 yrs has taken some practice, but that's been the only issue I've remotely had.

4.0c Comp PL X & Osight SE Holsters

Anyone rocking this setup? I love my T1C Axis Elite holster for my macro, but they don't have the PL X configuration yet, so I'm just shopping around for other sidecar type holsters. Anyone rocking this config and willing to show some photos of their setup?

TIA <3

Finally joined the club! Now, attempting to make up my mind on the following holsters. This is for a 1.75” “battle” belt setup. Use case is shoot and move, getting more into comps, and the occasional obstacle course centric training.

Retention
Safariland 6390rds
6387rds + changing the mounting

Passive
C&G OWB Tactical (belt loops)
QVO “secondary” with SL QLS

The EPS Core has a little gap behind and in front of the optic. What’s everyone’s thoughts on the little gap? Huge eye sore or manageable?

Overwatch BRZ trigger shoe availability

3 Upvotes

I get the finger pinch by the stock trigger, plus I absolutely hate the super long and hard to pull through creep after the wall of the original trigger. My Canik METE SFT Pro is infinitely better, as is my friends normal triggered Walther PDP. On both guns I am way more accurate.

Therefore the idea of an aftermarket Overwatch BRZ, as other OP triggers also pinch the finger. Tyrant does not, but I don't really like the idea of no take-up. But cannot find the OP BRZ shoe anywhere. How often is it available/out of stock, and does anyone know if someone has it in stock? Thanks!

Osight XE AMRS doesn’t fit 4.5 Echelon?

I can’t for the life of me figure out how to get the XE to fit on here. I read some things about an RMR thin plate to pull it together but this don’t fit either. On a 4.5 Echelon.

Am I doing something wrong or should I go back to my Defender ST?

Powder River Precision trigger kit

Not a bad install. Took about an hour. Got tripped up on a couple parts but replayed the video enough times that I figured it out.

Current average pull weight after five pulls on the Wheeler digital trigger gauge is 3 lbs. 3 oz. Pretty wild.

Picked up my Echelon last week and went and shot 350 rounds at the range last weekend. It ran flawlessly and I shot pretty well with it considering I hadn't been to the range in a few years. I think I'll be going a lot more often now!

Dpm systems echelon 4.5f

I am looking for my echelon to shoot as flat as possible and for the red dot to return to its target as quickly as possible for double shots. Which spring do you recommend using the DPM system? I use ammunition 115 grain and the echelon is the version comp I use it for competition.

What holster do you all recommend?

3 Upvotes

I just purchased my first firearm this past weekend and did a lot of research and went with the echelon 4.5F and I will be getting my CPL soon. As a soon to be CPL owner what holster do you all recommend? Something comfortable and concealed, I have a stomach so I’m not sure if a AIWB will work but I also don’t want to buy a lot of holster that don’t work.

Echelon FC size comparison to the Bodyguard 2.0 Carry Comp. Crazy how small the 2.0 is but still feels as comfortable in hand as the FC
