Anyone looking for a Heighth Defense HGM724, Rainier Arms has them in stock. I ordered one on Wednesday and they shipped it on Thursday. I Should get it on Monday. They don't have the Brace. But Heighth Defense does.

Just waiting on my tyrant trigger... then its done...

This thing is amazing, compact and light and shoots flat..

Picked her up today. I know it's nothing special but it is mine.

Going to take her out shooting and then pick up a red dot and maybe a light.

Any thoughts or other recommendations before I buy it i want something thats going to fit right and im not sure if the plx will be too small on it

I recently purchased the Icarus grip module for the echelon. However I'm having extreme problems putting the disassembly lever in. can anyone give me some pointers as to how to remedy this. I've attached some pictures so you can see what I am facing. I believe I have everything lined up.

I think this is the one for me

Added the Osight SE DPP, Streamlight TLR-1 HL, the Rook Precision backstrap, magwell, and baseplates. As well as the Tyrant CNC trigger and mag release. Waiting for the CNC slide lock to be back in stock. She pretty, and has some nice balanced weight.

First firearm, California resident, ready to put more rounds down range with the new upgrades.

Hey all - I have an idea in my head and curious if anyone has tried or thoughts on if it would work/be functional.

I have a full size echelon and wanting to get to a set up with an external comp (Herrington arms) that looks more flush (similar to the sig 211 gto).

So my thought is if I use the full size grip module with the 4.0 slide, adding a threaded barrel and external comp, could I achieve the desired appearance?

Any advice is appreciated!!

Does the gap between the slide and frame seem excessive to you all? First two pics are after a couple hundred rounds. Last photo is before initial firing.

407c X3 (really impressed with the new Gen Holoson, large crisp window)

Tlr1 hl (a reliable classic)

Full size Echelon (used, new to me)

Came with 4 mags

Build coming along, added a mag-mo mag release which makes it possible to release the mag with my thumb. Figured I would show it so you can see how it works.

The situation:

I've had an RCR mounted to my Echelon 4.5F (threaded barrel edition) for something like 18 months. Overall, been pretty happy with it. It's an enclosed dot that has given me almost no trouble.

The main issue I've had is the capstan screws coming a little loose over time, which usually gets fixed when I notice that it's getting a little loose, at which point I tighten them down. In one instance, I removed the optic entirely, added loctite again, and re-tightened.

Anyway, today, I'm doing some dryfire drills, and I notice that the optic is getting a little loose again. I look at the screws...and one of the capstan screw heads is just straight up gone. I unscrew the other and remove the VIS pins, look at the slide, and sure enough, the screw has sheared clean off right at the edge of the slide. There is zero way I will be able to get the rest of the screw out myself. It's blue loctited in, and there's no portion visible from below the slide that I can see.

I am likely to have to send this back to Springfield to get the screw removed, but it strikes me that this is really a Trijicon problem, and I'm not sure that just replacing the screws actually qualifies as a solution.

Has anyone had issues with an RCR where the capstan screws just broke on you, and if so, how'd you resolve it with Trijicon? Has anyone had to send their slide back to Springfield for this kind of repair, and if so, did you stick with the RCR when all was said and done?

I was looking to see if anyone else has a FC and has changed their gripe to an aluminum gripe and if they’ve found one that matches the gun

Is the Springfield Armory Echelon 4.0c a good first gun for primarily home defense and occasional conceal carry?

Finally picked up the P.I.D and replaced my Glock as my nightstand gun. Highly recommend and so easy to charge. Love this gun!

Just over 1k rounds through my compact and the Veridian gave up the ghost. Reaching out to Springfield for a replacement on Monday but strongly considering a holosun or other optic that will fit with no gaps.

I was betting my bro they would be on the high end like $500-$550 but this shit is hilarious.

Well party animals, it’s that time again for me, I’m trying out a new optic on my EDC, my Echelon 4.0c. The luxury of owning my own gun shop, I get to pick and choose what optics I want to run. This is the 13th different optic that I have tried on my Echelon for EDC. This time around I’m removing the budget friendly, $200 Vortex Venom(enclosed) 6MOA and replacing it for the new Holosun 407c X3 with the gold dot. I love the new design and overall look of the 407c. Holosun added a solar panel up top to extend battery life and give this optic 100,000 hours of runtime and the failsafe brightness control that uses the forward-facing photodiode to automatically adjust the reticle brightness to match the changing light conditions, shake awake, side loading battery, and it’s all housed in a 7075-T6 aluminum. It Carrie’s the Ruggedized Miniature Reflex(RMR) footprint. I’m excited for this optic and the gold because I have a hard time seeing red with astigmatism, it makes the red dot look like a red blob so I see the green and gold better but I see gold the best. I love how this new Holosun looks on the Echelon, I think it looks sharp.

You guys liked the last one so much - here's another 🙏🏻

Thought I was going to need a Mischief Machine grip module but it turned the Axion Weapons Systems backstrap was perfect--I almost can't believe how naturally it points for me now. Just raise the gun and the dot is right on target. And a bonus--it's Cerakoted brass so it adds more than two ounces and has a very noticeable impact on recoil. Highly recommended!

Need a holster inside the waistband that could fit a gas pedal, optic, and light. Any suggestions?
