I've been kicking around the idea of an RMR type sight on a pistol for quite some time. If you don't have an optics ready pistol it can still be done, but it is more involved than I care to go through. I came to the conclusion a while ago that I someday would just get something optics ready and then add the optic. Something on the order of S&W M&P Core, Sig's P320 variant, Glock (I'm sure they have one). Last week I was at the range shooting two of my 9mm a Ruger SR9c and my Springfield 1911. Again I was impressed with the Ruger and how well it shoots.
I notice today that Ruger has a Competition variant of the Ruger American Pistol. 5" barrel, optics ready ported slide. I do not hear a lot about this pistol, and I take it that it is relatively new. Watched a couple videos, and it seems to be a normal Ruger, solid for the money. Maybe a heavy trigger is the only real complaint I've heard.
Anyone here shot one or own one ? What are your opinions ? How would it compare to other pistols like the M&P, Sig, or the Canik ?
