Super cool gun though $3499 seems a bit high. A TRR8 is $1500 bucks. $350 for tk to do a 9mm conversion, an apex or REVup kit adds another $200 to $250. Then a 507 comp and plate for $400 still gets you there with a couple cases of ammo to spare. But it sure does look great.

Odd that they classify it as a medium frame.

$3,499 IS a bit high--UNLESS it's the ACTUAL gun Scary Jerry used to set the Record--Unlikely, I know...

That's a Vortex Defender (DPP footprint) - likely because JM shoots for Vortex.

Though it's apparently an 8 MOA version (VORTEX COMPDOT™ 8MOA) which is new. The Defender was previously released only with 3 and 6 MOA dots.

More interesting is:

C.O.R.E. Optic-plate system - New C.O.R.E.™ system for revolvers that allow you to mount a wide range of red dot optics available on the market.

So does this CORE system use the same plates as M&P pistols ?

It would be a nice for steel challenge. I don't know what else an ultralight 9mm N frame would really be good for, and that price is insane.

It’s a limited run, 1,880 of them to celebrate his 1.88 plate record, so one of the objectives is to be expensive.

It does appear to be double stacked plates. I think if rather have an alchin or d&l etc to get them a bit lower. Maybe a minor difference but they're high enough that every bit helps. Plus plates to plates is another screw to get loose.

Had to be a typo, as they list as an n frame.

"Only" $2,999 if you pre-order at KY Gun Co.--Think I'll wait until they're on Clearance at CDNN...

Yeah that looks way taller than the existing EGW, Alchin, and JP mounts. I highly doubt they changed the adjustable sight footprint, so I'm not sure what benefit this has other than it's "factory".
