KY GUN is the BEST! 4 months ago ** ** ** ** ** ** Verified Customer Excellent pistol with great ergonomics. Everything was done right from grip texture to serrations. The inclusion of optic mounts is superb. I like the 3 dot night sights version best. 12/22/2023 ** ** ** ** ** ** Shane Las Vegas, NV I’m super impressed with the Echelon so far. Only have 300-ish rounds through it but I can’t find anything to complain about. I won’t go so far as calling it a Glock or Sig killer yet, but I think it’s creating some stiff and innovative competition. Also, I ordered a Firstline (Mil/LEO) model here from KYGC. It was as quick and easy as an Amazon purchase. It shipped within 48hrs and reached my FFL within 5 days. I’m impressed with the Echelon and I’m equally impressed with KYGC. 8/11/2023 ** ** ** ** ** ## Don't Forget Your Ammo ```json
