DP Pro is not a small sight.
I have that on my M&P CORE (with some fitment needed to the gun and plate) - the Shield has an older DP, the DP Pro would be too large for that gun - in terms of both width and length (IMHO). I did put the Pro on my Sheild for some pictures - but I cannot find them for love nor money -- I will try to get some pic this week (I'll swipe another from Leupold for the pics)
As I understand Leupold is around 2,700 DP Pro's backordered to SOCOM, on top of more scheduled deliveries, so I have no ideas on commercial availability, I have another 3 that I have been waiting on for a while (I'll see some of the Leupold Mil folks tomorrow and bug them for an update - but they many not know about a commercial release).
I know the date has slipped several times as one of the customers requested some slight changes to the battery lid retention clip, and some further depth and time for waterpoofing.
Last date I was told was pre SHOT 2016, after the Jan, then March, then June dates had slipped.

Thx much Kevin, sounds like I need to X the DP Pro I was considering for my Shield.
I have an RMR on my 4.25" CORE, some 2500+ rds now & was trying to find a smaller, quality optic for the Shield, hmmm ......
I'm really looking forward to trying the Sig 320 factory RDS pistol. I dry fire a G19 sized 320 today, wow great trigger.
For those running an RMR Glock with suppressor sights - any issues with front sight stability or durability? The single screw fitting with the tall sight looks like it would be fragile, but I have not handled one.

DP Pro has a large production run going on now for SOCOM - what that means for commercial release, I'm not 100% - but I would assume that they should start hitting shelves later this month.
