Sharps Bros has shown support for the popular Springfield Echelon pistol series with the SBGM16 billet aluminum grip module.
Sharps Bros state “These are all cut from billet blocks of 7075 aluminum and we are also machining the Brazilian cherry house.
Overall I’ve been really happy with this Echelon as a platform.
First, the fire control unit what they call the central operating group is really well designed.
There’s about five points of contact in here holding that fire control or the central operating group inside the grip Weather using the OEM module or our aluminum grip module.
I think that this is a fantastic shooter partly because its got a very low bore axis, you’re able to get your hand really nice and high on these and they really are fantastic shooters also, really like the iron sights that come installed.
So I’ve been having fantastic luck with these in the OEM model and of course our grip module. I like the way our grip module feels of course.
One of the main differences being the OEM model has about an 18° angle and more like 13° so we stepened it up a bit it’s a little bit less blockish and a little bit closer to 11 or like 320.
