Edited: I bought the model in this LINK.

Except I got it for a 299 Christmas deal with free shipping. I'll take it to our range soon-ish. I plan to shoot it along with my new Canik TP9SF (which fires and handles like a dream.



If so, how long? How many rounds have you possibly fired? Any malfunctions? Issues? How would you say it compares to the Glock 19 (if you've made the comparison)?

Thanks!

Its a gen 3 glock... they have been pretty solid. I will probably get one just to dick around with if they ever put the AK103 premium folder on special with a free dagger again. They cycle through the freebie deals.

Watch the military arms channel (MAC) on YouTube. He had some critics of the early daggers and PSA addressed them.

I bought one but haven’t been to the range with it yet. I do not like the grip on a Glock. The dagger drip is feels way better in my hand.

Their blem dagger with case and 10 rounds is hard to pass up for $400. I have shot one and it felt great in my hand I will be picking one up soon for a truck gun

I think I am waiting two or three more years for the walking pin issue to get ironed out.

I have one. Sometimes PSA has a deal where they sell a Dagger frame and AR lower for $100, so I bought that. Then I waited for a slide assembly with the custom cuts in the slide, threaded barrel, and optic ready for like $200. Ended up being like a $250 gun. I took it to the range once for maybe 50-100 rounds, and I don't think I had any malfunctions. Seems to shoot well. If I remember right the trigger seems similar to my Glock 19X. The gun itself feels solid and feels good in your hand. I now keep it in my vehicle, that way if it ever gets stolen it's only $250. Only issue I have is the lack of holster options.

I bought one last December and haven't even shot it yet. I need to get out and shoot it.

I made it to the range yesterday with the Dagger. It was shooting a good bit left but I was planning on changing out the sights anyway. However once I figured out where it was shooting it shoot nice groups at about 15 yards. I was pretty impressed.

I did have a couple failure to feeds out of the 100 rounds I shoot but that could have been issues with my reloads as they are meant for another pistol. I will probably pick up some factory ammo to shoot through it next time.

PSA Dagger

This is the pistol I picked up and for $380 I'm pleased.

I bought one of the blems for $299 that had the optics cut. I put a holosun red dot on it and have shot it 100 rounds so far. I actually prefer it to the stock Glock 19 regarding the trigger. So far no issues but I understand I need to run more rds thru it before final judgment

I bought the compact version and put a red dot sight on it - this particular one has a slide cut for this purpose.

I ran just under a thousand rounds through it so far. More accurate than most of the Glocks that I have shot.

It had some ammo issues with some cheap rounds from a local manufacturer, but after trying those rounds in a Glock and studying remaining rounds, the problem was demonstrated to be the ammo rather than either pistol.

7 other types of ammo had ZERO failures and very good accuracy.

No adjustment was needed for the iron sights - they were exactly like Glocks from the box.

The PSA Dagger compact is a very well built gun. The grip is superior in my hands. The flat faced trigger has great geometry. The trigger break is mediocre, but similar to out-of-the-box Glocks.

I was thinking of going for a full frame at some point in the future, but enjoying this one for now.

Just thought I'd bump this thread to get a little more discussion since the Canik TP9SF discussion was so great!
