Springfield Armory Echelon 9mm 4.5in Desert FDE

The Springfield Armory Echelon 9mm is a modular, striker-fired handgun built around a stainless steel chassis and designed for use on the range, for duty applications, and for home protection. The Gear Up package variants pair the Echelon’s optics-ready slide with accessories intended for immediate use.

The Echelon is constructed for a secure, repeatable interface between slide and grip modules using a self-contained chassis system. The slide is machined with multiple engagement surfaces and a trench cut for positive indexing, while the rear is flared and serrated for confident manipulation. The 4.5″ barrel and Desert FDE finishes present a durable profile, and the pistol is offered with an optics mounting system that supports direct mount Red Dot installations.
