Apparently wanting to emulate the success of SIG SAUER’s modular P320 and P365 designs along with the entire ecosystems of parts and accessories that have grown up around the guns, Springfield Armory has now gotten into the modular handgun business. You have to wonder why most other gun makers still haven’t done the same.
Like the SIG guns, the new Echelon 9mm pistols revolve around its serialized fire control group which is the legal “firearm” that requires a background check to purchase.
