    Interesting. Any idea why they went with DPP; what kind of slide they can use (MOS or milled); and what model BUIS are they running?

    The DPPs in the article are on SOG (USMS SWAT) issued STI 2011’s. No idea if they are milled or using STIs HOST system. SOG is a pretty small organization.

    Speculating here but but like EOtechs, if you are using an RDS on short term, proactive missions you can just throw in fresh batteries before every mission and not worry about battery life. Trijicon s release of the SRO clearly illustrates the advantages of the DPPs bigger window over the RMR in terms of pure performance. This mirrors GJMs comments about the DPP being a superior “gaming optic.”

    The regular deputies I have seen with RDS have had a mix of DPP and RMR on Glocks. Milled slides are an option but I’m not up on the details.

    Whats the battery life on the upgraded units when the dot is left on the brightness appropriate for defensive use?

    I don’t know, but a feature of the DeltaPoint Pro is it goes to sleep after five minutes without motion, to extend battery life. The Pro is also the easiest red dot I have looked at, to change the battery.
    Likes pretty much everything in every caliber.

    Ok thanks GJM. Im seem to recall battery life was an issue in the original issue. It will be interesting to follow your experiences with this upgraded unit.

    The new STI guns have a “Duo” host cut. Meaning that it is a direct mill cut for the DPP and a plate system for using the RMR’s. It’s a pretty neat system. It also includes a Dawson rear sight that will mount directly to the DPP.

    Reached out to a TF DUSM I shoot w/ & he said the last time he was training w/ SOG @ Camp Beauregard he *thought* it was DVC-P's they were using, not 100% but he's an STI toter so 'prolly accurate.
