The Springfield Armory Echelon Alpha 4.0C is a compact 9mm striker-fired pistol, and this Gear Pac version (Springfield part no. ECA9409BLC-PAC) adds a factory-mounted Viridian RFX11 green dot, four magazines and a pistol bag. The 4-inch barrel and compact frame are tuned for concealability, while the serialized Central Operating Group keeps the platform modular. The slide is machined for optics through the Variable Interface System, so the dot sits low and secure. This is the low-capacity version with a 10-round magazine capacity, paired with a white-dot front and Tactical Rack U-Dot rear sight for rapid acquisition.
