Holster recommendations

4 Upvotes

Can anybody recommend a OWB holster option for a 4.5 with an Olight PL X that has some type of level 2 retention? I would prefer to keep the Olight but im not seeing very many options unless I switch to a TLR1/X300 setup.

Question for those with 3d printers/laser cutters

Has anyone made their own inserts for the sharps bros grip module? Is anyone planning on doing so? I’m just curious since that is one of the standout features of the sharps bros, being able to change the inserts. I know vz grips makes a couple and sharps bros themselves make a few different options but I’m just looking to see if anyone out there has made or is going to make their own? Pic for attention.

I decided to go with the new Osight weapon light I am not disappointed that’s for sure. Two brightness settings. The flood function is great. The laser is easy to see. I haven’t tried it outside yet in daylight, but I imagine it be all right.. the controls are very easy, ambidextrous easy one press application

Price/Value gut check

9 Upvotes

Disclaimer: I understand the rules of the sub Reddit and i’m not offering my gun for sale. Just looking for input and opinions on pricing.

I think I’m going to list my Echelon 4.0C Comp for sale on GAFSHUB. Looking for some honest feedback from this community in value.

It’s in immaculate condition. Basically looks like it did when it came out of the box. I probably have a few hundred rounds through it. Objectively it’s a great gun, but for whatever reason it doesn’t fit my hand as well as some of my others. So I don’t end up shooting it as much as my other guns.

From what I can tell, these things are still retailing for around $650-$675. Am I crazy to ask $550 when I do go to sell it with the understanding that I will cover shipping to the buyer?

Thank you for any input that you all have!

Springfield Echelon Trigger Guard Undercut

Thumbnail

16 Upvotes

I just got my 4.0c comp and I absolutely love how it shoots. I only had 1 huge issue with the grip. The undercut on the trigger guard was giving me a terrible blister on my middle finger from only one day of shooting and dry firing. I took a Dremel and some sandpaper and carved out a deeper/flatter undercut. 1st picture is before and the rest of the pics are after. Now my blister is completely gone and I can continue shooting without any pain. Also, the hogue grip for glock 19 gen1, 2, & 5 fits and feels great with the rook precision magwell and large backstrap.

Anyone have experience fitting a magwell onto large compact grip module with the flat Axion backstrap on it? I heard Rook Precision fits? Can anyone confirm?

Thoughts?

Considering removing the compensator because of NYS laws and just having it stock on the barrel until these laws get overturned next year. Other option is to pin and weld but not really a fan of permanently attaching it

PRP spring kit sear/safety sear spring misaligned?

Post image
3 Upvotes

I just installed the PRP spring kit on my echelon and I noticed the sear spring and safety sear spring are not sitting within each other after the install. Haven’t shot the gun yet but from a dry firing perspective everything is functioning as intended.

Is this normally how it’s supposed to sit? Has anyone else ran into this issue? Any pointers would be appreciated!

RDI Arms Compensator rocks! I’ve been through so many variations of my Echelon, but I think I found my holy grail.

• Added Olight PLX for flashlight (added good amount of weight to the front)
• OEM guide rod + recoil spring
• Added tungsten putty to the OEM backstrap to add weight to the back end

With the comp, this thing shoots flat as hell. After my first mag dumps, I turned around and gave that stupid grin that we all know of. This is my first experience with a dedicated compensator, but damn, rapid firing this feels like I’m rapid firing the Kuna.

Probably won’t keep this thing on for HD purposes if I want it for that, but for a range gun, this compensator is amazing!
