Springfield Armory Echelon 4.0 FC | 9mm | 4.0″ | EC9409BFC-U

The Springfield Armory Echelon 4.0 FC pairs a 4.0‑inch barrel with a full‑length grip and an optics‑ready slide to combine full‑size capacity with compact slide handling. It uses Springfield’s Central Operating Group and a Variable Interface System for direct‑mount compatibility with a wide range of miniature red‑dot optics. The pistol is fully ambidextrous and equipped with a tritium U‑Dot front sight and fixed rear sight.

A good optic match is the Holosun 507C, which fits the Echelon’s interface and offers a low‑profile red‑dot solution under $1,000 for fast target acquisition without excess bulk.
