    I notice this as well. When I do a significant amount of training with my 19 with an RMR running a plate rack, or shooting very fast drills, then switch back to my iron sighted 34, I pick up my front...

    With law enforcement increasingly moving away from the .40 and more towards the 9mm, I think this may be a trend. I doubt Safariland feels there will be enough LEO interest in this gun to design a...

    I try to teach "this is A way, not necessarily THE only way" to students. I believe this is another example of that. Like many techniques, it has a purpose and some validity. As do many techniques.

    A guy at work has one on an Ar. I have spent some time on it. Seems like a perfect candidate for your app. The 5.56 BDC is really accurate, can't say how it is on any other round. I'm not ready to...
