On a pistol? No thanks. Raise them for a suppressor, but not cowitness.



Why do they even put sights on it if you can't use them with an optic mounted?

Also, using a flashlight can cause a low-intensity dot to wash out (like on my dual-illuminated RMR). So having irons there makes sense.

Storm Lake or Wolf got this covered. If you're serious enough for a suppressor, you need a non shite barrel anyways.



But it's not included from the factory. Stupid move.


EDIT: Tiddles, I've been eating crow for the past couple weeks about not getting a regular DI AR. You've got a solid point.

Does the pistol come with a RMR? Some might want to shoot it before they purchase the RMR to see if they even like the pistol.

Perfect reason to not use a RMR on a HD gun.

If it lowers cost and makes it easier to but a Storm Lake or Wolf, Im all for it.

I look at them as two separate systems. I zero my iron sight then I zero my optics. I don't want my iron sights destracting me from my optics. If I am using optics I want to only see optics. If I want iron sights I remove my optics. None of my hunting rifles with optics even have iron sights.

Everyone has there own way of doing things. That is why Glock does not require you to purchase their system.

I bet you loved these.
