This was unexpected. I saw this thread last night and have a lot I want to say but figured I should let thoughts roll around for a day before I ramble endlessly. Then I look just now and see this...
Totally agree… I’ll only add that I now test fit everything after confirming function of the optic. The threads in some slides don’t play well with some fasteners, and I’ve had some optic plates...
We got Aimpoint plates when we got the P2s back in July 2021. My partner has a few thousand rounds through one and I have maybe 2,000 or so through mine. We had issues with aimpoint plates in early...
I’ve seen a lot of people running 320s but none have (that I remember) used an ACRO. That said, it’s funny how timely this thread is because I’m in the midst of my CA 10-day wait for a Sig M17. My...
Our tactics unit has converted a bunch of M&P and M&P 2.0 pistols to dedicated Sims-guns with the blue slide kits (don’t remember which brand - I’ll check later). They used Dueck Defense plates to...
We had issues with the McMaster alloy steel screws that had the wider (I think .307") head diameter because they contacted the side of the optic. We switched to the smaller head diameter screws...
I am impressed when I have to look up at least three words in your last two posts. The 507 of whatever flavor you choose will serve you well.
Absolutely. I know a lot of people advocate the press-out, but it's unnecessary with good technique and it encourages a gun/dot focus and not a target focus. It's not "horrible" or "wrong", but I'm...
Not really. The two people I know who have used them ended up turning the circle off after a little while. In the very minimal amount of shooting I did with one both the circle and the chevron...
That's funny... American Eagle was the best for us as well. The performance of the low-lead isn't great, but I won't complain about the lower blood lead level.
It's training ammo. Speer Lawman CleanFire 124gr. We've used several different brands and most of them have had one issue or another over time.
Since my last post we've done a few classes.
Mid march we did a department pistol optic class with 18 students, including four from two local outside agencies. Pistols/ Optics were as follows:...
I took my P2 off my M&P/ACRO plate and put it back on a Glock, so I don't have pictures, but from my memory the sights were visible but very low in the window - which is how I like them, so I never...
I wish we could do three days. I know of at least a couple big agency firearms training units that wanted at least a two day class if not more and were only allowed to do a one day. One of those...
A qual or 4-5hr class or 8hr class is enough to check the "deliberate indifference" box but not enough to really build proficiency.
We do a 16hr class and I see people who complete it who I...
We're getting asked about it a lot. I'm intrigued and would like to test it. The plate is pretty full, but maybe I should dump some veggies and make room...
Gonna be following where this thread goes. I’m being spoiled right now with a borrowed MasterPiece Arms .308 with a Vortex 4.5x27 and some damn nice custom .308 bolt guns. I’m going into day 4 of...
My L3D for Glock/TLR-1 or 2 works with the ACRO and 509T if you take the shield off. It is my understanding they are working on a shield for the enclosed emitters.
That looks rad. Being stuck (for now) in CA, this is actually a legal option besides a permanent weld.
Saw that today... gonna have to order!
I have the original and both volume 1 and 2 (new versions). All were worth it. Now I want the AR books.
The problem isn't with the optic... Holosun can't predict what platform you're going to mount it on. It has an RMR footprint, which means traditionally that you'll likely mount it with 6-32 screws,...
Out of curiosity, what plate were you using (Factory/Dawson or C&H)? Also, was the Loctite the liquid 242? Lastly, people tend to run 1911s, and especially 9mm 1911s wet. Did you degrease prior to...
You actually don’t, at least from my research. Per the information supplied by the manufacturer at Henkel.com, Loctite 248 is an “anaerobic thread locking material” which cured “in the absence of...
Not trying to be mean... but you are speaking from a position of a complete lack of information. You are not wrong, but your statement lacks basis in fact.
Mounting is a thing... but if one...
