Glock 17 vs 19 -- MOS

[GJM]

We shot the MOS 17 (her) and MOS 19 (me) in our practice session today. Here is my wife shooting a steel array, when the first target is just over 10 yards, and the far two are twenty something yards:

And, on the other end of the spectrum, here I am shooting a close array consisting of two eight inch steel at eight yards, and three open USPSA targets at ten yards:

Nice!

I really am tempted to give an red dot on a pistol a try. I think I want to hold off a little longer. I have a feeling as soon as I do it that something better will come along.

Nice shooting G, by you and the Mrs.

While a direct mount might get the optic lower, the beauty of the MOS is you can likely use whatever is the latest and greatest optic. I bet 2016 brings good things in that regard.

Lots of confluence going on -- USPSA Carry Optics, the MOS from Glock, 320 RX, and some new optics on the horizon. May get traction with timmies and gamers -- Gary is probably chuckling.

That's the beauty of the MOS or the Unity Tactical ATOM slide. You are not tied to one optic if your requirements change or something better comes along.

I think a 19 MOS is my next purchase...worst case scenario, I overpaid a bit for another G19.

They are on Gun Broker for $700-800 but they should be only about $80 or so more than a standard Glock.

I just bought another on GB for $589. $599 is real common now on GB.

Local shop had one at $565. Their competition 10 minutes away wanted $699 for a G17 MOS. Sem-local blue label dealer has them at $477 vs $398 for regular Glocks.

Thanks, guys, for reminding me just how much my local shops' pricing sucks.
