Blacked out in an all new scratch and wear resistant coating, the magazine features a capacity of 17+1 in its flush fit configuration and 20+1 with the extended base pad installed. The Echelon employs a newly developed magazine for rugged durability, hard use and reliable operation. 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. A trench cut forward of the action gives shooters a natural index location for press checks and charging the firearm. Thoroughly tested for ease of manipulation, the Echelon’s slide features four distinct engagement surfaces. The result is an unparalleled fit between the slide and a wide variety optics. 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 Variable Interface System (VIS) employs patent-pending self-locking pins to complete the most advanced optics mounting system on the market. 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 (VIS) allows users to mount over 30 optics directly to the slide without the use of adapter plates. The pistol comes standard with the medium grip module and three interchangeable backstraps while small and large frames can be purchased separately.Ĭoncealed beneath the slide cover plate is the Echelon’s patent-pending optic mounting system.

The Central Operating Group can be installed in any Echelon grip module allowing shooters to create a firearm that fits perfectly in your hand.

Precision built from stainless steel, the chassis provides a robust housing for its patent-pending operating system.
