Description
The small Echelon grip module is built for shooters who want a more compact grip without compromising control or firearm functionality. Made from durable black polymer and finished with Adaptive Grip Texture, this module delivers a reduced grip profile that works well for concealed carry or anyone who prefers a smaller circumference.
Adaptive Grip Texture on the Echelon Module
The grip texture feels smooth when you pick up the gun, but once you apply pressure, it becomes more aggressive and locks in your hand. This two-level design means you get comfort during presentation and security when firing. The small size reduces the overall circumference while maintaining all the internal dimensions you need for reliable operation.
Customizable Backstraps and Tool-Free Swaps
Each small grip module comes with three interchangeable backstraps (small, medium, and large) so you can dial in the exact fit for your hand. Installing the module or switching backstraps requires no special tools and can be done in minutes. The module ships with an ambidextrous magazine release pre-installed, so you can get shooting without any extra work. It accepts Springfield's Central Operating Group and all three backstrap sizes, making it fully compatible with your existing Echelon system.
Built for Carry and Control
Developed specifically for the demands of concealed carry, this module gives you the platform to build a gun that fits your hands and your needs. The reduced size means less printing, easier holster fit, and a more natural point of aim for many shooters. Whether you have smaller hands, want a more compact profile, or are looking to customize your carry gun, this module delivers real ergonomic improvement.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this small grip module work with my current Echelon pistol?
Yes, as long as you have an Echelon pistol with the standard Central Operating Group. Simply remove your current grip module and install the small module. It accepts all the same internal components and the three included backstraps will give you options to fine-tune the fit even more.
How hard is it to swap grip modules on the Echelon?
Very straightforward. You remove one pin, slide out the chassis, and install it on the new module. The whole process takes just a few minutes and requires no special tools. Many shooters swap modules between their range gun and carry gun depending on how they're using the pistol that day.
What makes the Adaptive Grip Texture different from other grip textures?
The texture starts smooth when you present the pistol, but as soon as you apply pressure with your grip, it becomes more aggressive. This gives you a comfortable draw and presentation while providing maximum security and control once you're firing. It was designed specifically for the demands of carry and defensive shooting.
Can I swap between different size backstraps, or do they have to stay with this module?
The backstraps are universal across all Echelon grip modules, so you can mix and match. Each backstrap has a small groove that doubles as an armorer's tool, so you can make adjustments on the fly at the range or in the field without bringing a toolkit.
