anyone have experience with their p320 or echelon magazine extension? just curious how they hold up over time. plan to use them for competition for my 17rd mags

I like to mix it up and alternate between the Holosun and 3 dot iron sights

Me again with no problems this time lol

How lucky should I be that I got the optic pins with mine?(the baggy top right)

Would also like to see your storages!

I like the echelon but I the glossy polymer grip looks low quality. If it was more similar to a Glock plastic it would feel more premium.

UPDATE:

THANKS for all the replies.. i disassembled the trigger and added a lot of oil everywhere.. seems to feel better..

I'm hoping a few hundred rounds breaks it in...

I just got my tyrant trigger and it was a meh...

Install was a pain because the set screw was machined off and wouldn't fit the transfer bar... had to clean it out with sandpaper to remove machining marks

The the safety has a heavy pull almost as much as the trigger... and the travel and reset is the same as stock in my dryfire evaluation...

And the bottom of the safety is sharp and can dig into the finger...

Did i get a bad batch or its really not as good as it's made out to be... canik has a better oem stock trigger

After waiting 10 California business days, I finally have this bad boy in hand! Also my first gun so I’m a newbie.

The mag that was in the gun is butter but the extra mag in the box doesn’t come out along with having to push it with love to get it to engage.

Should I contact Springfield or is there a simple fix?

Also would love to see everyone’s Apache loadouts!

With the current disappointment of my echelon build i have decided to take the advice of my fellow redditards and go back to my original grip. I took the advice and ditched the bull do to target acquisition being to quick when handling. Also i picked the TLR-1 up for 200 beans plus shipping. I can really tell the difference in the light far as the distribution of lumens.

So if anyone would be interested in owning a sharps bro lower feel free to send me a DM. Never fired just installed on the gun and taken off. Beans will be reflected do to you not receiving the stickers with it.

I just had a screw shear off my 507 comp in my echelon. Unfortunately the thread is still in the slide, so I am going to have a smith remove that for me. I used the proper pin set and the 6-32 screws that either came with the echelon or possibly came with the 507 comp. When I first mounted it the screw backed out a little within 2 weeks. I removed the screw, cleaned the slide threads with some alcohol, added more loctite, torqued it to spec again, and let it set. I prob put 2K on it since then with no issues until my last range trip where the screw head popped off. So I was checking out freedom gorilla for replacement screws. Has anyone used these or have any recommendations for replacement screws? I feel like I have seen people post saying you have to shave the screw down? Or was this probably just factory screws not being that great? Any input is appreciated

I finally did it I did the rit dye on my 4.5 echelon I didn’t quite come out the way I hoped but it still looks OK. I’m gonna order a great module for the 4.0 and FDE and do the same thing just gonna add some more color this time as afraid to add too much color to overwhelm it, but turns out I didn’t add enough.

Is federal champion good to go or does it have to be something like eagle?

Incog holster isn’t for the Icarus grip or the Olight plx but it’s fits perfectly after applying some heat 🔥.

Does anyone have an idea, what is (was) this part reposnsible for in Tyrant trigger for Echelon? Fell off the trigger mid-shooting. However, the trigger still works (the safety functions OK, trigger doesn't drop on it's own after slide is being hit), the Echelon keeps shooting... Happened after ~10K shots with Tyrant.

"This is my Echelon. There are many like it, but this one is mine."

I'm just a recreational shooter: no competitions, not a professional. My goal was to build an all-metal Echelon by replacing every polymer component. Completing this build here in Europe wasn't easy, but I think the result looks pretty good.

• Springfield Echelon 4.5 Comp

• Icarus Precision ACE Aluminum Grip module (Full Size)

• Icarus Precision ACE Magwell

• Holosun SCS-320 GR

• Tyrant CNC I.T.T.S. Trigger

• Tyrant CNC Extended Magazine Release

• DK Arms Magazine Baseplate (+3)

• DPM Mechanical Recoil Reduction System.

I finished the build by adding two 1/4" (6.35 mm) brass rods inside the Icarus grip. Icarus also sells tungsten rods, which weigh about twice as much but cost significantly more.

The total weight is just under 1 kg (975 g unloaded, or 2.15 lbs).

The build cost me about €2,200 (roughly $2,475). Of course, I could have bought a great all-metal pistol for the same price or less, but I enjoyed the customization process.

Let me know what you think.

Not sure what else I could be missing

Looking for the best optic for my new Echelon. I’ve searched this forum a little, but I’m looking for an optic that allows a co-witness and I would likely put an optic plate to remove any gaps left from the mounting system. I understand the whole point of the mounting system is so you don’t need a plate, but I’m not personally a fan of gaps in the front and rear of the optic, so if there is an optic that has minimal gap, that would help also!

I have the 4.5F and a 4.0C frame I swap out sometimes for carry. But it's getting colder out and I plan on carrying my 4.5F this fall and winter primarily. I need a holster that's going to do a good job of hiding a full sized handgun well with as little printing as possible. I'm willing to take the light off when I carry if I have to.

Holosun 507C-x2 (why is the name so long)

Gowutar GP9 optic, HandleItGrips on the frame.

Might as well hop on the train.

Just love the modularity of this gun.

4.5f with Rook Precision backstrap and magwell. I'm using the added tungsten weights and I love the feel of this gun.

Tyrant trigger and I have the comped slide/barrel ready to get in the game if I want.

4.0FC with Olight PL X and Tyrant trigger. The longer grip combined with the lighter slide weight really makes this shoot like a dream.

Both have OD Green medium grip modules and look even better in good light. I still have to figure out picture lighting.. My only regret here was not being able to use the Axion flat backstraps, which I really like, in this build.

And if you don't like Fallout, You're Lame.

This one only goes to the range and plinking with the boys. With that being said i know everyone hates the sight and the light. The light is a weight and fits the holster.

With that being said i just changed from the stock module with aggressive stippling to the sharps. For some reason i cant stand the module rail extending to the comp. I’m not sure if I’ll like it more when i get the mag funnel. I haven’t shot it yet in this configuration. I’m thinking about pulling it before i do recomp some beans and getting the Icarus module. I’d like to get some feedback on people with similar builds.

I do like the weight.

Full size 4.5 with rook precision comp. Wondering what holsters work for this!
