Springfield Armory Launches the Echelon 4.5F Comp 9mm
Precision, Power, and Modular Innovation
Springfield Armory proudly announces the launch of the Echelon™ 4.5F Comp 9mm, a cutting-edge, integrally compensated pistol designed to deliver superior performance and adaptability. Engineered with meticulous attention to detail, this latest addition to the Echelon lineup reduces felt recoil and muzzle rise, offering faster, more accurate follow-up shots.
At the core of the Echelon 4.5F Comp is its integral compensator, discreetly designed with a single port on the top of the hammer-forged slide and barrel. By redirecting gas upwards, the compensator minimizes muzzle rise, enhancing control and allowing for more rapid, precise shots. For an uninterrupted sight picture, the front sight is positioned behind the compensator.
Innovative Central Operating Group
- The Central Operating Group is the heart of the Echelon Comp, utilizing advanced manufacturing techniques to create a fully self-contained, serialized unit that can be quickly moved between different grip modules. Made from durable stainless steel, this chassis houses a patent-pending operating system, providing exceptional reliability and versatility.
Patent-Pending Optic Mounting System
- Springfield’s Variable Interface System (VIS) sets the Echelon Comp apart by allowing users to mount more than 30 different optics directly onto the slide—without the need for adapter plates. Configuring the self-locking pins for your desired optic footprint ensures a low, secure mount, offering improved sight picture and intuitive alignment for enhanced accuracy.
Built for Duty-Grade Performance
- “The Echelon was designed to offer a fresh take on the duty-style 9mm pistol with a host of modular and innovative features,” said Steve Kramer, Vice President of Marketing at Springfield Armory. “Now with the Echelon Comp, shooters have a new option that combines advanced performance with duty-grade durability.”
