Springfield Armory Echelon 4.0 FC 9mm | 4″ | 10-Rd | EC9409BFCCA-U

The Springfield Armory Echelon 4.0 FC is a striker-fired, optics-ready 9mm pistol that pairs a 4-inch barrel with a full-length grip to deliver duty-grade capacity in a balanced package. The pistol includes ambidextrous controls and a tritium-luminescent U-Dot front sight for improved low-light acquisition. A compact red-dot such as a Holosun 407K will directly mount to the Echelon’s interface and complements the platform without exceeding a $1,000 budget.

Suggested applications: everyday carry (where permitted) and range/practical training.
