    I put the Kingslayer on my Glock 44 with an aftermarket slide cut for the RMR footprint.
    Only have 150 though it but so far so good. I went with the Kingslayer because the sight picture is similar to the Holosun 507C that I have on my G34 MOS.

    I've got a Sentinal M, inbound for my Smith .22c. Plan to run that in upcoming steel matches.
    Taking a break from social media.

    Just got some Kingslayers in with the Red Circle Dot. Will put one on a S&W 41 that has a Weaver rail on top. Debating on using the second on AR9 or MPX.

    Just got back from the first range session with the Sentinel M on a FrankenGlock. Seemed to work well enough so far, but I only shot 55 rounds with it. The blue hue and slight magnification seem to be on par with my HE508T, but there seems to be a tiny bit more distortion to my eye in the Sentinel. I had a little trouble with my sight picture shooting X rings at 12 yards. Not sure what the deal was, but between the optic and my glasses I struggled. Will have to work with it a bit to get that sorted out.

    I also lost the little adjustment wrench the first time I got the optic out of the box. (The "L" shaped flathead.)I took an eyeglass screwdriver along to adjust for zero. It appears to me that there will be no improvising a tool for adjustment in the field. You either have a tiny flathead screwdriver or you are not adjusting it.

    I inadvertently pressed the down button a number of times when racking the slide. Wish I could lock the buttons out. Guessing that type of feature can't be packed into this tiny vessel. Understandably so.


    The slide on the FrankenGlock has 6-32 threads for the optic mount. The Sentinel does not have enough clearance for the width of the head on a standard machine screw so I had to fit the screws by reducing the diameter on the head of 6-32 x 3/8" machine screws. No protrusion in the extractor plunger channel. Torqued them to 15 inch-pounds with blue Loctite.

    My G43x slide has a .160" deep pocket. This is what the Sentinel looks like with 10-8 standard low profile sight with a .140" notch. (.250" tall) The front is a Dawson .250" x .105".

    So far, I really like this little optic.

    Could you advise who did the slide cut ?

    Aren’t the G44 slides mostly polymer?
