Does this particular model come red dot ready? From the picture, it appears that it does.

Hi Michael, yes sir, this is red dot ready. This has the Variable Interface System - By utilizing a set of movable pins, the Variable Interface System (VIS) on the Echelon achieves a low, direct mount optics solution for improved sight picture and intuitive alignment. Stay safe & have a great day!

Hi Michael and welcome. It is Optics Ready with the Variable Interface System, or VIS, this ingenious bit of engineering allows you to direct mount most popular pistol-sized reflex sights made today. A good read on the details here : https://www.thearmorylife.com/how-does-the-echelon-vis-optic-mount-work/ ---------- Cheers and stay safe!

Michael, yes sir, all models of the Springfield echelon are optics ready. Concealed beneath the slide cover plate is the Echelon’s patent-pending optic mounting system. The Variable Interface System (VIS) allows users to mount over 30 optics directly to the slide without the use of adapter plates. Simply configure the self-locking pins for the footprint of your desired optic to achieve a low, direct mount for improved sight picture and intuitive alignment. Hope this helps.

Hi, my I ask, First Line Springfield "QP" aren't supposed to come with 3 mags?

Hi Kevin, most, but not all QP pistols come with 3 mags. Unfortunately, this is one that only comes with two. Stay safe & have a great day!

Kevin, this model only includes two mags. One 17 round magazine and one 20 round magazine. This also includes a +3 magazine extension for the 17 round magazine if you want to make it a 20 round magazine. If interested here's a link to spare 17 round magazines. Hope this helps, link here....................... https://www.budsgunshop.com/product_info.php/products_id/157926/spr+echelon+mag+9mm+17rd

Hi Kevin and welcome. Just two magazines. MAGAZINES (1) 17-Round, (1) 20-Round - https://osagecountyguns.com/firearms/handguns/ec9459b-3d-fl.html

I saw a review on the Echelon, which mentioned items it came with. In such review, they mentioned an additional mag plate ext. Which gives you the opportunity for 2, 20 round magazines. Is this true or an addition for reviewers?

Julio, yes sir, you get the additional magazine plate extender so you can make the 17rd magazine a 20 rounder. So, yes, can have (2) 20rd magazines. Unboxing video here >>> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nDzXXBKKj8g Stay safe & have a great day!

Does the Echelon come in FDE ? Or is it to early?

Julio, no sir, no FDE yet, just black. Stay safe & have a great day!

Julio, as of now there's no fee version. Springfield likely wanted to see how well it sold before making different options and seems to be pretty popular so will likely be a fde model in the future. Sorry but hope this helps.

Hi Julio and welcome. Not just yet. But I anticipate it will soon be due to its popularity. https://www.springfield-armory.com/echelon-series-handguns/echelon-handguns/ - Cheers and stay safe!
