The bore Axis looks low.
But.....how will I know where to grip it?!?
Anyways, jokes aside, between the prodigy and this it looks like they're at least trying to deliver what the market wants. If they can do it with some level of QC, that might finally change their "entry level acceptable, meme for everyone else" status.
Glock and Sig 320 had a baby = Springfield Echelon :)
Does it come in G19 size? LOL Price?
Will be the number one call to the local shop from Jim-bob--"got the new gun in yet?" -uhh, which one, "the new 9mm"---ok--?
I had the opportunity to shoot it Sunday and I’ll admit I’m quite impressed. The trigger is fantastic, it’s very flat shooting, everything about it is well thought out. If the quality control is there, then I feel like a Springfield has a winner.
Absolutely nothing innovative, and MORE investment in the NON-standard, SHITTY Optics mounting methods.
Might be a decent pistol, but just some more "meh" at first glance
Seems nice. That’s a tough market though. There are so many competitors out there. From market dominant guns like the 320 to cult (and in my mind superior)guns like the apx. I think I would put 5 mags in the box and a good kydex owb holster ( with a coupon for lefties). Something to give the end user a reason to buy this over something else.
If after a year or two I read that it isn't a problematic gun, I'll try one.
I'm done being their guinea pig for new model guns.
Agreed. This is one where if you're interested, you wait for the potential recalls/bugs to pass before buying.
I wish a gun maker with "weight" would partner with an optics company with "weight" and come up with a mounting solution that would force everyone to follow.
