I’m pleased to see we agree about Primary. That is one gorgeous gun.
Yes, indeed.I think we agree on more than you think. We seem to have been talking past each other a bit quibbling over battery change intervals. We both agree that changing them out well prior to the end of their useful life is a best practice for life saving equipment.
Below is glock milled out to take the RMRHere’s a picture of the setup on my issued pistol. Rear sight (thank God, it’s busy enough in that buggered up little window already) has no dots. Front sight (not pictured, obviously) is a suppressor height night sight.
I don’t see the irons when using the gun, focus is on the target and the dot is “painting” it.
I would like co-witness irons on my training gun, but this whole “transition” has proved costly enough as is.
I’d take back my Glock 22 with irons (and shooting a much better bullet) in a heartbeat, but am willing and able to adapt.

I’m confused about your “crowded window” comments. What could be in the window except the dot and the sight picture?I shot this group the other day at 50y proned, just to see what the gun would do. I honestly believe the low impact on the one shot was due to the cheap ammo; this sight system is that accurate.

Close range “point shooting” and moving while shooting are what I’m struggling with. As in the two things that matter in a gun fight. Hundreds of hours becoming proficient in combat shooting with irons, and now I’m having to reprogram myself around this stupid crowded window thing.
This .22 setup will alleviate cost in training. I’m still going to shoot the magic nine of course, but a bunch of .22 ammo will help a lot.
Well, that is the price you pay for co-witnessing, right? And sI think the more modern window designs like on the Vortex Venom give a more open appearance. The RMR has a bulky look about it that does seem to crowd the window.Perhaps he means this is busy. It is not for me, but not everyone sees the same.
