Agree on the 2 best compacts. PDP is cool but chunky, VP9 and P10c are almost Glock 17 size. FN 509 MRD is great but not widely used aside from LAPD.

Ahem M&P 2.0 Compact new trigger

[@TheRancor53]

@@bbazzracingyep, M&Ps are dope-only thing not a fan of is the witness hole on barrel, just not a necessary feature.

[@Claudius43CE]

Canik Mete SF is kind of slept on. Mine is a hammer.

[@TheRancor53]

@@Claudius43CE yeah they’re so cheap everyone should buy one to have around, I’d take a Rival any day.

[@toddparsons2980]

I prefer the ambi mag release.

[@larrylinn1221]

Hellcat Pro bundles are a pretty good deal for me. Buying this way is a lot more economical. 4&5 mags with great sights is a good deal. The Echelon does look 👀 pretty good though. I will check it out for sure. Good video

[@popupheadlights]

Now that I have my echelon. It just shoots so much better then a hellcat. I mean for obvious reasons(mainly weight) the extra weight don't bother me when carrying and just has a far superior trigger.

[@melvinmorales3619]

Somehow the compact looks better than the full size

[@Caliboy94]

Love my Echelon. Living in California so I had to pay extra for an off roster model

[@Mralex3281]

How much did you get it for?

[@ThePatriotPath]

​@@Mralex3281It's supposed to be added to the roster soon.

[@jcx5663]

I was thinking of doing an intrafamiliar transfer from Florida but may wait to see if it lands on the roster soon. Not sure why it failed the DOJ test

[@iceskk]

hello brother Please let me ask. Compared to Glock Is it much better?

[@mikechampion1614]

If the mags are interchangeable between both full size and compact . that will be a nice touch.

[@q-tip4723]

Pretty sure it is.

[@popupheadlights]

They technically are but it's posible to over insert them.

[@berserkerok3351]

If the holster actuates the mag release, the holster isnt made correctly. I personally like the ambi mag release and have never had an issue while carrying.

[@triggersandtech]

Which version of the Streamlight TLR-7 works on this compact? Great review! New subscriber 👊🏼

[@OldeEnglishOutfitters]

Thanks for the sub! Any TLR 7 that uses picatinny

[@g54b95]

Ah. A 2300h drop. The perfect nightcap.

[@UncleGunn83]

What’s the point of this if you have the hellcat pro?

[@q-tip4723]

If you are like me and need something for duty and EDC.

[@starscream4282]

Bigger, thicker guns generally shoot better. Easier to control, especially with rapid fire. This is a war gun that you can conceal carry. The Hellcat Pro is slimmer for more comfortable concealment but is not designed as a war pistol. Smoother serrations so it doesn’t snag on clothing and such. Specifically designed for self defense CCW. The Echelon is designed for rugged environments. Those serrations are so aggressive, even if your hands are covered in slippery blood you’d be able to rack that thing. If I had to engage an active shooter or something I would feel A LOT more confident with the Echelon. I have the Echelon 4.0 as well as the Hellcats/Sig Macros etc. to carry…the slimmer ones are SLIGHTLY more comfortable but I prefer the gun I want to have in a gun fight. And those guns are the Echelon Compact/Glock 19/320 Compact for me.

[@popupheadlights]

​@starscream4282 yup pretty on the money. The hellcat platform is designed for carry. This is designed as a "do it all" gun. It could be your home defense gun on your nightstand. Your concealed carry gun, then go shoot some competitions during the day with it. I've absolutely fallen in love with this gun. My hellcat pro hasn't even been carried since I picked this up. Doesn't hurt that the trigger is miles better then the hellcats

[@4coopdawg]

So it’s the exact Springfield Exhelon just 1” shorter ?

[@OldeEnglishOutfitters]

4" barrel and compact frame

[@FaceRipprMonkey]

Nope, ambidextrous is everything! Good job Springfield 💯

[@Asidebar]

I ordered one. costing $ 589

[@Asidebar]

I got my 4.0 C LOVE IT!

NOT

[@Swamprowdy]

Maybe next time, mention the actual content.

[@deejayimm]

I am left-handed and I wish manufacturers would just stop with the ambi shit. Just make the right-handed controls usable with the trigger finger. The Glock bullet-style extended slide stop, and nice big surface of the gen 4 mag release should be standard on all handguns. DONE.
