Springfield Armory Echelon Alpha 4.0C Badlands Features The Echelon Alpha 4.0C Badlands runs a striker fired action built for consistent reliable performance shot after shot. The slide is cut with the U Dot optic ready pattern and uses Springfield Armory s Variable Interface System mounting more than 30 red dot footprints directly with self-locking pins and no adapter plate required. A 4 barrel and 15 round magazine give the pistol solid capacity and accuracy in a compact concealable platform. For concealed carry users who need a pistol that mounts their preferred optic without an adapter plate the Springfield Armory Echelon Alpha 4.0C Badlands Variable Interface System delivers that flexibility straight from the factory. The Echelon s interchangeable chassis system lets the same serialized fire control unit move between grip modules and sizes as a shooter s needs change. This 4.0C configuration is sized for concealed carry balancing a shootable grip length with a compact footprint that stays comfortable under cover garments. The FDE frame paired with an OD Green slide gives the Badlands variant a distinctive two-tone look. For shooters who want a modern optic ready 9mm pistol from a manufacturer with a strong reputation for duty grade firearms the Echelon Alpha 4.0C Badlands is a compelling choice for sale at GrabAGun.
