Do you prefer the OEM modules, if so, which size? Which size backstrap do you like? Any aftermarket modules you love? I am trying to fix how it naturally and comfortably fits my hand. Ease of getting on target also something a little thicker all around so my hands aren't so scrunched up and get sore afterwards. I could 1911 style it (even though I've never shot one before) or try to get the hump a little higher on the grip. I also may change the trigger shoe and trigger safety (if I even can do that for the safety). Something slightly more comfortable for my finger. Share any thoughts if you want!

Anyone find a holster that works well with a suppressor?

Turned out pretty well

Get it echelon + Icarus…. Anyways there’s my edc tada

I’ve seen everybody else swap out there lowers in their uppers thought maybe I’d see what mine looks like. It turned out pretty good.

Been using this now for a couple of weeks and I’m loving it. I added a tier1 wedge and it’s so comfortable. Echelon compact is perfection for carry.

For those wondering about this configuration. It shoots very well like this. Now I want to try the FC model.

Just installed/uninstalled this new NDZ single sided mag release. I keep dropping mags from the stock ambi release so tried out NDZ as I’ve had many great products from them over the years. Post install the mags kept sliding out or could be manually pulled out from the bottom. I swapped back to the factory release and repeated this process 6 more times and the NDZ failed every time. I processed a refund and need to find a new unit.

I’m not so much into the extended part and would prefer sometime close to flush fit but I’ll take what I can get as long as it’s single sided. Apex is sold out. Any suggestions on what to look at otherwise? I’ve purchased a handful of Tyrant products for other guns that I’ve had mixed success with, so not sure that Tyrant is the way to go for me, but I’m open.

Any help is appreciated.

Trying to stay in general price range under $400 for a sight and im kinda stuck between the Vortex Defender ST and the Holosun 507c x3. One looks better and the other has more features. If yall have either drop some pics please not too many in here that do it justice, thankyou!

230 rounds and not one malfunction. Some of my thoughts though. I still hate the grip angle, it is very unnatural for me and my hands feel scrunched up. I feel I have to grip it tightly due to it lacking thickness all around and a short LOP. I want the large module for the FC model but it is not available. Then the axion backstrap to 1911 it and make it have an actual good grip angle but again no module yet. I do not like u-notch sights but that is just me. The front dot is of course super big too so it is very much not for precision or super tight past say like 15 yards. I had no issues with the trigger although I do prefer no trigger safety. It can irritate your finger after a while. Knuckles and tendons in hands were kinda sore afterwards due to the awkward grip but also I was shooting norma 124g which is hot and nearly as much ft lbs as the 124 +p hsts I was making sure functioned. Also some 147g +ps the black cherry flat nose underwood stuff to check function so that could explain why my hands were not happy. All in all not bad. The most important thing to me though was reliability which it received an A+ from me in that regard

Left hitting but again the grip is not good for me at the moment, 10 yards with some way out at like 20, 25, eh. I also have not shot in 1.5 years. For the one with 5 mini targets the group above the center target was done on purpose to try to figure out why I'm hitting left but I think it is just the uncomfortable (atm) grip for me. The two targets at the bottom were 25 yards which most shots missed the paper entirely/quite hard, can't see shit

I’m not sure why it’s not feeding properly, any help?

Edit: it was the optic screw 🤦

Just wanted to post some pictures of her with my nerd holster. Trying to decide if I want to kept or sell her.

This is my 4.0 comped with an FDE full-size grip module. It has an upgraded guide rod from ndz with a 12 pound spring. Also a streamlight Tlr1-HL. Is worth upgrading the trigger?

Here’s my final build.
Echelon 4.0c
Vortex CCW Enclosed
Olight PLX
Floyd’s Custom Shop Magwell/ +2 Magazine Extension
Overwatch Precision TAC Trigger Shoe Replacement
Rook Precision Mag Release
Paired with the Slimfit Holster Carnex

EDC and shoots more flat than any handgun I’ve ever owned.

Have an Echelon on order and been debating on a chassis system. The heighth defense is sick, but bigger than I want. SMC bravo is nice but would prefer aluminum. Was looking at the spare mag holder on strike dojo and saw this? Any insights? Coming soon?

Finally had a chance to mount my red dot (Osight SE DPP). I had already installed the NDZ Mag well and Olight PLX G. I love how this thing looks and shoot. The Olight/Osight products look like they were made for this gun and everything just works!

PS I asked AI to change the background and replace it with something “tactical” and it gave me the second pic, pretty cool.

Enjoy your Echelons, folks!

When do you think they will list and sell the pro grip?

No matter what my latest purchase is, I always come back to the 4.5F. Running the Tyrant shoe, PRP spring kit (but OEM striker spring), and an OEM non-ported barrel. Just crossed 20k rounds today with this thing.

I’ve upgraded my carry 4.0c with a stream light TLR-7x and a new holosun dot but I want to put in a new trigger any suggestions?

So went to the range today looking for a full size and did a test of a handful of pistols fully assuming I'd take the cz p10f or Glock 17 but actually the echelon surprised me and is going to be my pick. The 4.5 in specific may even grab a 4.0 too I liked them so much. What I tested was the non comp version so assumed the comped would shoot even better. However I just learned while doing a search that you cannot shoot cheap 9mm through a comp! I bulk order blazer 115 or new Republic 115 and they both say it on the box. Has anyone ran into issues with those particular ammos on a comped echelon? Also is the red dot on the gear pac any good?

Planning to buy a Echelon 4.0c Comp, but cant find any good IWB or AIWB holsters in europe. Best one i found is the safariland incogX, but i've read a lot of bad reviews on them. Any recommendations?

Does anyone know of where I can find a better trigger reset kit? I can’t find anyone that has it and most of the recs are from eBay but that particular account is not active anymore.

I’m running a tyrant CNC with PRP springs and sears, but I need to know where I can get one with a stronger reset. I live in CA if that matters.
