What’s the Upsell? Springfield Armory Echelon Manual Safety

So, why should you dive in on one of these new Springfield Armory Echelon Manual Safety pistols?… An exterior manual safety can be a bit love-or-hate for many gun owners. I, personally, don’t own many handguns with an exterior, manual safety, but I am glad that Springfield is offering it to those who do wish to have one. Springfield gives this conclusive statement as to why you might want to give it a try:

An ambidextrous thumb safety is mounted to the frame and is textured for easy manipulation in adverse conditions.
