We stock the full size 4.5F, the compact 4.0C, the 4.0FC and the Comp versions, with every count and price on this page live.Springfield's modular 9mm, from the full size 4.5F to the compact 4.0C.

Echelon models explained

The name gives the barrel length and the size. The 4.5F has a 4.5 inch barrel on the full size grip, and our listings sell it with 17 and 20 round magazines, or 15 and 10 round ones. The 4.0C has a 4 inch barrel on the compact grip, with 15 and 18 round magazines in our listings. The 4.0FC puts the 4 inch slide on the full size grip, and the Comp versions have a compensator cut into the slide. We have 14 4.5F, 20 4.0C, 8 4.0FC and 10 Comp listings in stock.

Many listings are Gear Pac or Gear Up kits with extra magazines, and some come with a red dot already mounted. The filters above the grid find both.

The Central Operating Group

On the Echelon the serialized part is the chassis inside the grip, which Springfield calls the Central Operating Group. It moves into a different grip module, so one pistol can change grip size. Springfield sells small, medium and large grip modules, and they are in the parts section below when we have them. Shop Echelon magazines or Echelon parts.

Red dots on the Echelon

Every Echelon we list has an optic ready slide. Springfield's Variable Interface System lets the slide take many red dot footprints directly, without an adapter plate. The Optic included filter lists the ones sold with a red dot already on.

Other Springfield pistols

For a smaller carry gun, see the Hellcat. For Springfield's earlier full size striker pistol, see the XD-M, and for a double stack 9mm 1911, the 1911 DS Prodigy.

Springfield Echelon FAQ

What is the difference between the Echelon 4.5F, 4.0C and 4.0FC?

The number is the barrel length and the letters the size. The 4.5F has a 4.5 inch barrel and the full size grip, the 4.0C a 4 inch barrel and the compact grip, and the 4.0FC the 4 inch slide on the full size grip. Our 4.5F listings come with 17 and 20 round magazines (or 10 and 15 round versions), and our 4.0C listings with 15 and 18 round ones.

Which magazines fit the Springfield Echelon?

Springfield's Echelon magazines in our listings hold 10, 15, 17, 18 and 20 rounds, and the ones marked 4.0C are made for the compact grip. Shop Echelon magazines, or see the magazines in the parts section of this page.

Is the Springfield Echelon optic ready?

Yes. Every Echelon we list has an optic ready slide, and some come with a red dot already mounted (the Optic included filter lists them).

Do you carry 10 round Echelon pistols for my state?

Yes. Many of our Echelon listings are 10 round or California compliant versions, and the "10 round / state compliant" filter above the grid lists them. Check our state restrictions page before you order.

Do you have the Springfield Echelon in stock?

As of Nov 13, 2026 we have 56 Echelon pistols in stock, from $477.12. Stock changes daily, and the ones that sell out stay listed after the ones you can buy.

Do you ship Springfield Echelon pistols to my house?

No. A firearm bought online ships to a licensed dealer (FFL) you pick at checkout, and you fill out the transfer paperwork there. Magazines, grip modules and holsters ship to your door where your state allows.
