Ayoob: Compact Springfield Echelon 4.0C Review

www.thearmorylife.com/compact-springfield-echelon-4-0c-re... In the article "Ayoob: Compact Springfield Echelon 4.0C Review," Massad Ayoob evaluates the Springfield Armory Compact Echelon 4.0C pistol, a smaller, more concealable version of the Echelon 4.5F. Chambered for the 9x19mm Parabellum cartridge, this compact version shares many features with its predecessor, including the modular Central Operating Group and the Variable Interface System compatible with various red dot sights. Notable design elements include a 4-inch barrel, a shortened grip frame housing a 15-round magazine, and compatibility with multiple optics without adapter plates. During testing, the Echelon 4.0C showcased mild recoil and ease of use, earning high marks for its reliability and accuracy, and proving well-suited for concealed carry in a Safariland IncogX IWB holster. The final verdict suggests it is a reliable and effective personal defense weapon.
