Apparently, ok, nothing stood out about it.

Maybe it shouldn't but this surprises me. Thanks.

Pistol Mounted Optics Instructor class, 10/25-27

The range's altitude was about 5600' ASL. Temps were in the high 80s. The round count was about 650.

Nine sworn students, all carrying their duty guns. I didn’t break down the combos, but these were the pistols/optics:
G17 – 6;
G19 – 1;
G45 – 1;
G47 – 1;

Holosun SCS – 2;
Holosun 507C – 3;
Trijicon RMR – 2;
Leupold DPP – 2;

One of the G17 shooters kept having issues with his optics coming loose. The culprit was a warped MOS plate.

Gunsite’s 350N – Intermediate Defensive Pistol – Nighttime/Low Light

A five afternoon and evening class, with a round count of about 1000 rounds of ball and 150 of frang. Ten students in this class.

I’m adding the weapon-mounted and handheld lights to the usual data. The students were carrying, using:
G19, iron sights, no WML, SF G2ZX;
Sig 320FCU, Holosun SCS, TLR7, SF G2ZX (tried & chucked a Rock Island 1911 and a G17);
Sig 320 Rx, Romeo 1Pro, Crimson Trace handgun light, SF G2ZX;
Staccato C2, Holosun 507C, SF X300U-B, SF Fury;
Sig 320, Romeo1Pro, Crimson Trace handgun light, Fenix handheld;
Sig P226, irons, TLR1, Fenix handheld;
H&K VP9, Trij RMR, X300Turbo B, Streamlight ProTac 2L;
M&P 9mm, Holosun SCS, SF X300B, SF G2ZX;
Beretta PX4, Holosun 507K green, no WML, SF G2ZX;
Kimber Desert Warrior 1911, iron sights, SF X300U, Fenix handheld;

The Rock Island & G17 shooter had functioning issues with those handguns, I don’t recall any issues with any of the optics.

Meanwhile, the instructors had:
Vickers 1911, Acro, X300 w/DG switch, SF something or other;
M&P 9mm, Acro, X300U-A w/DG switch, CD MCH-Duty-HO-DF & Modlite OKW;

In comparison to the students, I found it interesting that both instructors were using Acro P2 pistol sight and SF X300U’s with DG switches. Additionally, we both used helmet-mounted night vision during the nighttime indoor/outdoor simulator runs as well as when monitoring the unarmed practical application exercises.
