Springfield Armory Echelon | 9mm | 4.5″ | 10+1 | EC9459BCA-U

The Springfield Armory Echelon is a full-size, striker-fired 9mm pistol built on a stainless steel chassis with a polymer frame and designed for modern optics and modularity. This California-compliant variant includes safety features required for that market and ships with two 10‑round magazines. For a compact reflex sight under $1000 that pairs well with the Echelon, consider a Holosun 507K or a similarly sized micro red-dot to preserve slide serrations and sight picture.
