All my guns are setup for duty so I'm looking to red dot a pistol for a fun range toy. I'm thinking Glock 17L with a trijicon but I'm open to suggestions. Let me see what you did.
 
Re: Show me your Red dot pistols!

Here is one that I am currently working on to mount a red dot -

The one that is all finished except the sighting in is a G20SF with a LW longslide and Burris Fastfire -

Mine from One Source Tactical. I have a trijicon RMR02 on the milled slide. I use Ameriglo suppressor sights for co-witness.

I don't think I could justify a $600 sight for just a range toy. This is my carry gun. It was milled and installed by One Source Tactical.

My TSD Glock 17, shown with an add on beavertail but getting sent out to Glockworx for some frame work (Glock bite.)

My Buckmark, with some Browning parts left on it:

Honestly, the RMR RM07 was like $600 and the Docter was $250 with the current 50% off special, and I think I like the Docter better. The glass is much more clear, the housing is smaller, and so far, it has held up better. The RMR is back at Trijicon right now because the windage was drifting.

Is that the stock GLock slide^^^^^^^^?
 
Re: Show me your Red dot pistols!

Yea, it started out as a stock G17 Gen 4 slide.
 
Re: Show me your Red dot pistols!

I want to put a Trijicon RMR on my G23. It is my carry gun. I dont think the added height of the RMR would make it harder to conceal, but I have no experience with these things.

Has anyone seen or heard of someone carrying with a red dot on their carry gun? I need to put a light on it as well. I'm thinking X300

I know lots of folks who carry w/ RMR's on their pistols. Most IWB.
 
Re: Show me your Red dot pistols!

6mmman, check out One Source Tactical. They are pretty much the Glock/RMR
experts.

I mostly carry OWB, but Im waiting on my IWB clips for my RCS phantom, so we'll see how the RMR carries both ways.

I like the lone wolf slide cuts and bull nose on there G17 slide better than the glock look alike slides.but I want the slide cut for RMR and want it now . Anyone ?
 
Re: Show me your Red dot pistols!

I want it black or Grey, for the price on OST sight it may be cheaper to buy it turn key if the 150.00 off code still works on the RmR ?
