What’s the actual difference between the alpha and regular? Whats the point?

Like I’m reading the articles. You get one mag…one back strap and a cheaper front sight. The slide cut is whatever probably will feel the same but everything else is the same? Are they going to push out more alpha than regular 4.0C now? Is the street price is gonna be even lower? I paid $599 before tax and shipping for my 4.0C with 5 mags. The puts the gun around $500 or below…. That’s already cheap? Are they going to steal some customers from the RxM market? Because if the echelon’s street price ends up being $490 bucks it’s hard to go for the RxM imho…. My dad might finally give up his Gen 3 g19 now.

This gun is seriously underrated

No one. Absolutely no one talks about this gun. Everyone seems to love to talk about the p-10 which is not as good looking or the m&p 2.0 which is more expensive or the RXM which just isn’t as good…. This gun is as reliable as a Glock . FCU with solid build quality and it isn’t an Sig. Def one of the best Striker fired guns ever made in the $600 price range. With the gear pack the gun can be had for really reasonable prices compared to a gen 6 Glock which has a worse optic mount system and doesn’t have the modularity this has. Just hope the after market would pick up. But after looking at other carrying options. They just don’t fit the bill like the echelon. (Good price, reliable, modular, do it all).

Level 2 duty holster for Echelon 4.0C? Maybe universal options too?

Not looking at anything too fancy. Just a working and reliable enough duty holster for occasional open carry on rural hikes and maybe open carry at a Gun show. Picture shows my set up

I’ve been scouring practiscore and been looking at some level 1 events or action pistol events at my local range. There’s quite a lot actually so that’s pleasing to see. But what do I need to start? What do I bring usually? How to over come nervousness etc for first timers? Will this help me fix my random flinching etc? Will this also help me train for actually carrying a gun everyday? Also if I just shoot my carry set up. Does this hobby cost a lot? The entry fee etc seems very cheap compared to the car track days stuff I be doing.

I’m a beginner shooter. I really only started taking pistol shooting seriously like 1 month and a half ago. I recently went through the finger printing process and is waiting for my CCH. How good of a shooter does one need to become before carrying a fire arm.

Their argument is “oh osight is new so it must be bad…. But but holosun is entirely different bc it’s proven even though they perform exactly the same but more expensive!!!”

Because of these people I’m so glad I stopped buying glock at Gen 3s and realized there’s better guns out there instead of being a brand tard

Echelon 4.0C. No comp bc they are expensive. Extended mags are cool but idk if I’d carry those for EDC.

Osight SE Green dot. got these for $180 after shipping and tax on Osight. Wayyyy Better than Holosun EPS carry for the money

Streamlight TLR-7 HLX. Got these for $170 after shipping and tax on PSA

Got the whole gun plus the gear pack for $630 after tax and shipping. $650 after FFL. Insane deal for such gun with the amount of stuff it came with. When I was convincing my friend to get the G19.3 last year, he got the echelon instead, I shot it and instantly thought my Glock is behind on its time….
