The Armory Life™ is pleased to announce the release of the Spring 2026 issue of The Armory Life. Featuring a cover story on the new Echelon 4.0FC "hybrid" 9mm, this issue commemorates the fifth anniversary of the print magazine.
Since its launch in 2019, TheArmoryLife.com website has proven to be an outstanding resource for firearms-oriented content. It delivers exciting and in-depth daily posts created by some of today's most respected experts in the firearms community. With the launch of the full-color, 96-page quarterly print magazine in early 2021, fans of The Armory Life were given an entirely new medium for consuming this content over the past five years.
Recipients of The Armory Life print magazine are selected from Springfield Armory warranty registrants. Currently, subscribers receive two years' worth (eight issues) of the magazine.
In addition to the detailed cover story on the newest Echelon offering, the issue features an interview with Jeff and Kristi Hoffman of Black Hills Ammunition as well as in-depth reviews of firearms such as the SAINT Victor 11.5" 5.56mm Pistol, 1911 Mil-Spec .45 and Model 2020 Waypoint in 6mm Creedmoor.
The issue also features informative articles on Springfield Armory's FIRSTLINE benefit for America's first responders; the new Gear Pac offering that provides an optic, four magazines and a high-quality range bag for your favorite Springfield pistol; and much more. Round that out with an article by Capt. Dale Dye on the 55-day siege U.S. Marines faced down in China, and you have another must-read issue.
The print magazine is designed to integrate closely with its digital sibling website, featuring easy-to-use QR codes throughout. Simply open your camera app on your smartphone and scan the code, and you'll be taken online to expanded content and video segments.
