I'm wanting an article or comparison between the Hellcat Pro and this new compact Echelon. My primary concealed carry is a clean Hellcat Pro. And it's perfect but I also just bought a new full-size echelon and have been using for my introduction into competitive shooting. And I love it. But I...

Getting ready to leave for my first official competition shooting event... a little nervous. 10 yrs US Army, 20+ years Police... but just now at an early retirement age of 57 getting into competition shooting. Practiced last week and a 14-year-old girl smoked me. lol (I'm OK with that, just...

I've been all over this planet we call Earth, well maybe half of it, OK maybe that's all an exaggeration. A number of countries in Europe, the deserts, quite a few in Asia, and even an occasional trip to the North Sea area, and the African region. And I would agree... Americans know little to...

I got some details from a friend of mine over there. One Deputy had just finished a traffic stop on the side of the roadway. As he was getting ready to leave the motor stalled and lost all power. He called for the other 2 motor officers to come help him out. They arrived, and just after a lady...

Ya, it's a sad situation especially before the holidays. One of them killed is a member of my law enforcement motorcycle club, the Defenders. Multiple chapters were meeting at the south end of Lake O this Saturday for a multi-chapter lunch. He was supposed to be attending, now it won't be the...

As I mentioned in another thread, I'm looking into getting into competition shooting. 10 yrs of Army service, and 20+ years as a police officer. I can shoot pretty good, but never tried fast, and never tried competition shooting. Now that I'm retired and spend a lot more day's at the gun range...

Agreed... and thank you to all who have served this great nation.

Agreed... the 2-party system is broken; I want more parties. I always thought about creating a Constitution Party where the Constitution and the Bill of Rights guide the agenda. And we picked construction workers, teachers, plumbers, firefighters to run not just doctors, lawyers, and party...

Great day for the 2A and the 1A it protects... didn't think he would do it but it's a happy day for this gun owner.

A follow up question... Trying to find out what the best 9mm ammo to use for competition shooting. Every search or article says something different. I'm guessing 124 gr in brass casing, FMJ??? Seemed to be average recommendation.

Thanks... I bought some Magtech 9mm Luger FMJ subsonic 147 gr as recommended and went back to the range today and test... The 147 gr was great, no issues, no jams... but then I tried the Stealth ammo again, the same stuff I had issues withy last week, and it worked great too. So go figure. I...

Ya I was sent there and signed up... but now to get some practice in before I embarrass myself. lol Was more just wondering if anyone here participated.

I did a search here for "competition shooting" and "steel plate challenge" and was surprised to not find anything. Does anyone here participate? I was just wondering and looking for more info and tips because even thou I spent 10 years in the Army and 20+ years in law enforcement, never really...

Agreed... keep my Hellcat Pro stocked and clean since its main mission is my concealed carry. Would love to see an article like this for the Echelon thou... since that's my fun Frankenstein range gun.

Hello, Just picked up a Springfield Echelon not too long ago. Took it to the range today for its first shoot. Without a suppressor on it shot beautifully without issue and dead-on target. using Magtech 9mm Luger FMJ 115 gr rounds. I then put my suppressor on, and it shot the magtech's just...

But that being said, I do like to Frankenstein my guns for range days and shoot houses... more then I probably should. BUT like I said, I carry clean and simple, and concealed.

Thanks... got a nice set, just couldn't find the one bit to fit. Thx.

Agreed... that's why my carries are a plain and clean iron sight Hellcat Pro and/or my XDm Elite compact. ;)

I'm looking to remove the sight plate of my Hellcat PRO and put on a Shield Red Dot... The instructions in the manual say simple, remove the 2 screws holding the plate, doesn't meantion what size they are and I'm not finding one in my set, either too big or the next one is too small... any idea...

Say hello to my newest build. A Springfield Echelon with a Holosun green dot, Viridian XTL tactical light with camera, and a JK CCX suppressor. (Now to find a holster for this monster.) Range and shoot house videos come soon... after the coming hurricane maybe, lol.
