That’s money right there, and why I deal in opinion because it’s really hard to argue against results. The universality of the results is what I’m talking about.
Kind of like selling a rifle without irons and calling it “Optics Ready.”
No no, CLEET starts at 25 (4 standing with barricades and 2 kneeling) and move IN to 15, 7, 5, and 3.
Glock irons cover the center mass hit box from 25, for me they do so to a degree that makes calling a shot impossible. You can hold irons off by a few degrees and not realize it, or not have the desired POI properly centered.
I basically never miss with irons from 15yrds in, but one or more would slip the line from those 25yd shots, enough that I wouldn’t be confident taking a headshot from that range.
Now that I added the red dot, I can easily hit head sized plates from 25 all day, and torso plates from 50 or more.
What I used to think was a grip problem turned out to just be eyesight and crude sights.
I have spent the last 2 years transitioning to rds with training, competition, and lots of shooting. No going back for me, I'll most likely never shoot any of my iron sight pistols again. To each their own, but I have personally seen below average shooters with irons get a slide milled and go rds and become almost competitive over night. The batteries are now part of my edc, range bags, glove box.
Interested in seeing how it works for you. I have a G35 I picked up last month that I am still trying to choose a dot for. I wouldn't say I have ditched the dot, I just haven't fully come around to them yet, but that's a practice issue. I have a Swampfox Kingslayer that I haven't zeroed yet that's been sitting on my Beretta APX A1 for months. Maybe this weekend I'll get around to it. Recently my tastes have kinda switched to non-optic cut guns. Picked up a Tomcat last week and am looking at getting a PMR30 this month and an IWI Jericho soon as well. And don't get me started on wheelguns! I have a hankering for a S&W 586 .357mag and a Charter Arms Professional in 32 H&R Mag

Here’s a second or third bump for Aaron Cowan with Sage Dynamics.
He has been my go to source for bringing myself along with the dots. He has so much information posted to utube and the newest content has gone patreon exclusive.
He not only can explain the training necessary to make a successful transition into the dot but has hard use tested all of the dots and lighting systems out there.

I went dumbing around the nets looking for something that might fit my thoughts. I came across this by Carver. This is for the Glock platform and I can see how it could be streamlined to fit my needs/wants. With a little refining it could be a carry capable concept. Needs some meltdown work, but with the right materials it has promise. To adapt to the common poly Sigs you would have to produce a modified FCU retention/takedown pin, but that’s not too tall of a mountain. I can see an integrated light adding some rigidity to it.

To hell with sights in general. Just shoot from the hip bob munden style.
The issue with frame mounted optics is that the frame flexes under recoil and torque but it shouldn’t be so much that you’ll miss entirely.
Good luck finding a holster for that, though.
I got a cheap Aimsurplus Glock 17 RMR cut slide on sale and it fits any RDS capable holster.
ALG doesn’t make the Six-Second mount anymore but those looked fun. I should have got one when they were new.
I looking to go with a dot for my new Ruger Mark IV Pistol. Which is your preference. RED or GREEN?
