No, but they, along with a few others have been on my radar and I will likely rent one within the next week or two. I have an old springfield xdm that I love and I was told that the echelon is basically it's replacement. Idk if that's true or not. I keep finding these guns I'm interested in and go on YouTube to see what people are saying and of course there are haters and people speaking of failures. The echelon is no different. You can find someone with a bad experience with any manufacturer so it's hard to tell which ones are going to be quality. It's what's kept me from pulling the trigger but eventually I just gotta say fuck it. People talk shit about the xdm but I've had zero problems with it.

I also just received an email saying that they've released a carry version.

most places seem to love it, but like anything you can find a lemon

honest outlaw and TFBTV beat the piss out of theirs with the "Torture Test" and they both ran flawless.

I've never even heard of it, but it looks sick. My state is so shitty that we probably won't see it on the roster for 20 years.

I may pick one up as my nightstand pistol. There's a thread on reddit of all places where people have upwards of 5K rds in the matter of months with zero issues
