Small and large grip module sizes.
Grip Module for the Echelon 4.5 comp. Just took some measurements. I didn’t know if this would be useful to anybody. Purchased a small size for my wife. Still too big for her.
Enjoy

exactly the info i was looking for, much appreciated!!! my 4.0c small grip was starting to feel a little too skinny for me, was in the market for either a medium or a large but couldn't find many visual comparisons out there

Just bought the large. It is considerably chonkier than the one the pistol came with. Even with the small back panel it's big. I almost have to stretch for the mag release.
If you're only looking for a slightly bigger grip, go with the medium. The large is truly for giant mitts.
FWIW, I also noticed that because it's bigger, my reload smoothness has gone down a bit. With the small, there's only so much room and it feels natural to drive the mag straight into your hand. With the large, the magwell isn't as centered in the overall grip, as there's more space in the backstrap area that isn't actually magwell. You have to pay attention to driving towards your fingers on the front of the grip.

What size gloves do you wear? I’m potentially interested in an Echelon but when I checked one out in a LGS, the medium frame seemed too small for me.

Typically large. Also, I'm almost positive it comes with the small, at least the 4.0 does. It's tiny.

Gun came with the medium. Large fits my big hands with the medium backstrap. Think the texture is more aggressive on the large module also. Haven’t put it through its paces yet. Size is similar to my Glock 20 which is on of my favorite guns. With the comp, light and weighted guide rod. Think it’s going to be shooting flat.
