Which aligning the sights, makes me aim lower. POW! I’ve shot half a dozen of these. Price has gone up to $75 for repair (1/2 current retail). 9mm FMJ. How the little round support wires always seem to catch the bullets is wild to me.

or someone who was intent on hurting you. Suddenly you can't hit anything you aim at.

I know lots of folks use red dots successfully

But I’m having a difficult time embracing them. Besides the $400-$500 to get a good one. Its the extra time transitioning to looking at the dot. It’s worth it to hit a rabbit sized something at 50-60 yds. But to tote all the time, I’m not so sure.

Looking for some good visual irons and a custom trigger for the big Glock.

check these out Scotty
