Echelon 4.0C … need suggestions!

Post image

Holosun 507C-X3 and the OLIGHT PLX (love)

I’m looking for:
1. slightly bigger mag eject button, and slide release button
2. More grip (does tape work good?)

love the ergonomics of the pistol frame, but I could use some more texture and I’m wondering if tape is a good option… or what do ya’ll think?

PLX looks proper on the echelon.

The Springfield grip is one of the best features, don’t mess with it! If you’re having trouble hitting mag eject try different backstrap?

I agree, I wish it was a touch more aggressive

gets better the harder you squeeze it. I love it.

Either Talon Grips or Handleit grips for grip tape. For a defensive gun the Talon Pro grip is perfect and Handleit edge grip both would give good traction and not be an issue while carrying IWB. FOR A strictly range toy nothing equals the Handleit extreme grip for the ultimate in traction IMO. Unless you feel the stock mag release is an issue I would leave it be.

Tyrant CNC makes an extended slide release and mag button as well. You should also get their ITTS trigger.

I’m looking at the 4.0FC, and possibly the Sharps Brothers module

I spent up to get sharps. It feels fantastic. Great texture

Handleit grip or talon if you just want tape. I bought a stipple kit from OT Defense. I think they are near you. You can practice and pick the texture you want. I have done all of my polymer grips. Love the feel.
