    I’m 5’8” and have the threaded version of this. I appendix carry this just fine. I own 5 glocks. The echelon legit destroys all of them in all aspects. It definitely crushed both versions of hellcats. Every optic you complained about the VIS system not accommodating is garbage. You sir, are whiney.

    So this is my favorite pistol straight out the box that I've had in at least 15 years at that price point. I've got 2100 rounds through my Echelon right now with zero malfunctions zero issues with anything. It almost feels like cheating shooting this gun with a DOT on it. The trigger pull is crazy better than any Glock unless you spend 200 on a unreliable Timany trigger. Springfield hit this one out of the park!!

      It is a great gun, it isn't the best in my arsenal but I'm looking forward to future offerings. I just hated how Springfield pretty much sent it out to everybody and almost every bodied said it was the best thing out. Kind of like the prodigy. I do love both guns but they weren't a must have.

As for Glock, I've never like the guns themselves but respect what it brought or brings to the industry. I think everyone just wants to use the term "Glock killer" as clickbait.

      we are all allowed to have our own personal opinion. I love a more crisp and shorter trigger. I don't like plastic parts so I try to replace those as soon as possible, hence why I upgraded the guide rod. Also I felt the mag release wasn't pronounced enough so I went with the apex version. But Ive always been a tinker, I almost never leave stuff stock. Glad you are enjoying yours as well.

Plus I didn't buy this gun initially because of what happened with the prodigy.

I was lucky to only have a few malfunctions and I'm handy enough to fix those minor issues myself.

    I can agree with you on what you said about Springfield. Not being a gun that is good for a beginner. The gun itself is for what I gather and what I saw and what I've seen. The gun is good for a beginner specially that comes out box shooting flat and it has serrations on top of the slides alongside of the slides that you can grab makes it easier for you to use it. The red dot and makes it where you can use. Just about any red dot that you need just coming out to upgrade. I'm telling my red dot sigit's. You also can change the grips with small handing hand medium for $600. This is a gun. That is good for a beginner, especially when you need something that you can carry for us every day and if you ammosexual It's right up your alley because A 21 round clip and a 17 round clip shoot and you've got somebody's trying to really handle. You really mess with you, you gotta go to work. And you should know you won't have run out of bullets.

    • @beardedbully001
      @beardedbully001  4 місяці тому

      First let me say thank you for watching the video and responding. Second I understand we all can't agree on everything. I will have to rebut a few things you pointed out. First on research: it's a polymer striker fired gun from Springfield Armory that uses the vis optic system and is modular with its' cog system. Besides it being made in Croatia and rebranded in the US there isn't much researching outside of actual feel and use to do. Second I agree that the vis system is amazing and better than anything else out there but for people who are in the springfield eco system it could have been a slight disappointment. For me, I bought the prodigy, as you know or may not know springfield didn't have alternative optic plates available so everyone was forced to utilized the doctor footprint if they wanted a red dot. Eventually springfield caught up and most of us got another optic plate for rmr and/or DDp footprints. That left us with an optic just lying around and some of us like me wanted to utilize that optic on the echelon only to find out it isn't compatible without the purchase of another optic plate. This wouldn't have been an issue if springfield didn't specifically push that optic footprint on us because they made the hex dragonfly that utilized it. Third, as for shooting flat, with the right technic on a 9mm full-size gun almost anybody with a little bit of strength and control can shoot their firearms pretty flat. I agree the gun is great, I just don't like the roll out from springfield by putting it in almost every guntubers hands, if you follow the tech industry you totally understand how I feel and though that sells products today it will but a strain on the gun industry and force companies to always try to come out with something new even though it isn't revolutionary. But do you feel this gun is a Glock killer or is better then canix or the Walther pdp pro?
