50 Round Review, Springfield Echelon, The New Standard?

Welcome to Arnzen Arms 50 Round Reviews. This week, we are looking at the Springfield Armory Echelon.

Like the Sig 320, the Echelon is built around a stand-alone fire control group they call the Central Operation Group and a unique Optics Integration system that allows for direct mounting of 30+ optics - no plate required - very cool.  

This great-looking striker fire pistol performed above average in slow shooting and recoil-sensitive drills. The gun is a breeze to shoot, the ergonomics are excellent, and the results speak for themselves.

Starting at $679 MSRP, the sleek modern design and direct optics mounting options make checking out the Echelon mandatory if you are in the market for a new full-size polymer striker fire pistol.
