2019 RDS on pistols thread

[dontshakepandas]

Brand new type 2 06. I don't remember it being blurry when I put in on (daytime) was dry firing later last night and really noticed it.

Try looking at the dot through something with a small round hole in it so that you can emulate a rear rifle sight. For example, you could use a buckle hole in a belt.

Get the hole fairly close to your eye and hold the pistol at a normal distance. If the dot is no longer blurry it is your eyes causing the blur. If the dot us still blurry when looking through the hole it is likely the optic.

RMR1 or RMR2? Was it always blurry or has it become blurry after use?

This picture was posted earlier in the thread - make sure your emitter window is still there (you can see where it has come loose below). I've had this failure on a RMR2 where the window flew completely off under recoil - the dot goes from crisp to a blurry mess once it is gone.

Haven't seen it mentioned anywhere and I don't think it's worthy of its own thread, but GT Distributors is now taking orders for the previously-unannounced Glock 45 MOS (currently available as a Blue Label gun only).

Question for you guys: With the irrelevance of sight radius when using a RDS, is there really much advantage to G34 (or even G17) sized slides anymore? With modern ammo, it seems like your only remaining advantage of muzzle velocity is OBE.

There are factors like balance, and recoil feel that are shooter-specific. Those are more important factors than sight radius or muzzle velocity, IMO

IMO tracking the dot is easier with a g19 than a g17. I think it has to do with the shorter slide travel and I also prefer the recoil of the g19 in Gen 5 configuration.

I think this will vary depending on user. But to me
the dot is a great equalizer!

I prefer the recoil impulse of 26(best)>19>17>34(worst)

BUT, you have to realize that all four guns have identical slide stroke distance.

Sorry if I phrased it wrong but the point is the slide length difference affects how they shoot.
