I rolled my eyes at first until I saw the optic mounting solution which have moveable lugs and doesn’t require suppressor height sights. Now that’s innovation! Now Springfield has my attention

[@topsecretclownbusiness2266]

I'm pissed and I think the pistols f****** stupid first off there's absolutely zero reason to mess with the XDM Elite line..... if it ain't broke don't f****** fix it... now they're floating their barrels so say goodbye to fully supported match-grade barrels that can handle heavy harmonics they should have chambered it in 57 in made of 57 XDM Elite the new slide cut for red dots are cool but then there's no Muzzle threads they should have never f***** with the XDM Elite line added slide cuts to it and muzzle threads and chambered it and something new like a 57 that would have been absolutely amazing and I guarantee you it will absolutely dominate every 57 out there that's ever been made including FNs.... and it would have been because of the fully supported match-grade barrels Witcher just a little thicker those Harmonix matched up with the ten are amazing them matched up with the 57 would have been Beyond laser accurate

[@MusicianZombie]

Shadow systems did the universal optic mount design first. Just seems like other big brands are starting to do the same. Let’s see who else hops onboard!

[@rustleshackleford1553]

They have definitely partnered up with a solid Croatian weapons manufacturer, this model (unlike the Hellion) is exactly the same in both countries, right down to the name.

I really hope this pushes other manufacturers to follow suit, ramping up the competition against each other to produce some bad ass firearms. The Echelon, I think, will be a staple for the entire firearms industry. This commercial is also put together extremely well.

[@arthurnguyen-cao1577]

The innovation started with Sig Sauer. The Sig P320 was the first handgun to use a modular fire control unit - and it looks like this is Springfield's competing offering. Excited to see what comes next.

[@24YOA]

The firing group being serialized is a unique touch. Movable lugs and direct mounting is a unique idea, wonder how it works out.

[@jkjiggy6824]

Best gun marketing video I’ve seen in decades!

[@timhong4713]

I'm really impressed when comparing this to a P320: - Multi-mount Red Dot Support (I'm very curious on the list of 30 supported optics) - Suppressor height Red Dot mount - Super low bore axis like a glock (man, the P320 has super high bore axis) I think they have a real winner here.

I have a SAR9 and it came standard with two 17rd mags and interchangeable back and side grips - it’s what drew me to the gun - these are great attributes for a firearm but this thing has these and so much more, the super high grip angle/ ease of breakdown/ different stock sight configurations with that cutout in the rear sight/ slide flares… so sick
