Springfield Armory

The Springfield Armory Echelon 5.28" 9mm threaded barrel pistol with three-dot tritium sights sets a new standard for modern, striker-fired duty pistols. With a host of patent pending features, this fully ambidextrous handgun is designed around a robust stainless steel chassis and a revolutionary optics mounting system. The tritium 3-dot sight configuration delivers superior low-light performance while the 1/2x28 threaded barrel is ready for mounting the suppressor of your choice.

Engineered with superior ergonomics and built to withstand the harshest conditions, the Echelon takes its rightful place at the front of the pack.

At the heart of the Echelon lies the all-new Central Operating Group. Employing cutting edge manufacturing techniques, the Central Operating Group is entirely self-contained and serialized allowing it to be easily moved between grip modules in seconds. Precision built from stainless steel, the chassis provides a robust housing for its patent-pending operating system.

Concealed beneath the slide cover plate is the Echelon’s patent-pending optic mounting system. The Variable Interface System allows users to mount over 30 optics directly to the slide without the use of adapter plates. Simply configure the self-locking pins for the footprint of your desired optic to achieve a low, direct mount for improved sight picture and intuitive alignment.

The Variable Interface System employs patent-pending self-locking pins to complete the most advanced optics mounting system on the market. As the mounting screws are torqued to spec, the pins exert lateral pressure on the optic’s interior mounting surface to eliminate variance and left/right movement. The result is an unparalleled fit between the slide and a wide variety optics.

Thoroughly tested for ease of manipulation, the Echelon’s slide features four distinct engagement surfaces. A trench cut forward of the action gives shooters a natural index location for press checks and charging the firearm. The back of the slide is flared for positive purchase while deep forward and rear serrations are carried through the corners for a firm grip from any angle.
