In 1991 I was 22 in the Navy and my first purchased handgun was a blued M43, I kept it for a year and traded it for another gun, I regreted it later on, owned various STAR models after that, last year I purchased another on GB with roughly 300 rounds through it with case and manuals, I forgot how much I liked it.

I milled my slide for RMRcc because Forward Controls plate worked great, but wouldn't cowitness with the suppressor height sights I had. If you get suppressor height sights, be careful and measure the height of the optic first to be sure you get sights that are tall enough. The proper height needed for them to cowitness with the adapter plate is ridiculous looking though. I just put the RCR on my glock 19 mos and used the FC adapter plate and i have to uet again buy taller suppressor height sights. I'm not milling the g19 mos slode like i did for the 43x mos. Just a little bit of my experience so it hopefully helps you if you decide to get suppressor height sights to cowitness, and I highly suggest you do so.

I have both and love both. I agree that the 47 has a tad less felt recoil. I’m fortunate enough to have both and will keep both. I did get the 45 first, and just decided I wanted the 47 as well. Can’t go wrong with either one.

The training I had recommend you always rack the slide all the way back to release a slide so you get the full force of the spring loading and engaging the gun, whatever pistol it may be to ensure it chambers properly. Using the slide release only may work most of the time on most guns but there is a chance it may not on a different gun. So that’s why some people rack the slide to load every time. I didn’t realize it wasn’t the manly thing to do but that is the reasoning.
@Meaty556Ай бұрын
Whatever floats your boat man! I think that the slide release is faster. At least for me and most competitive shooters

@meaty556 I may have missed it and, if so, I didn’t want to rewatch the whole video to be factual; however, did you have any reason not wanting to have it milled for that optic? Not sure if it was due to cost or being hesitant on structural integrity of the firearm, but I was curious if you contemplated it. I saw someone who ran identical optic on 43x MOS and loved it after it was milled because it was super snug and allowed co-witness with upgraded irons. Thanks.
@Meaty5563 ай бұрын
So, I’m not completely sure if you can mill an MOS slide due to less metal being there, not sure so I’d have to look into that. Nevertheless to answer your question I chose to go with a plate because I consider red dots a lot like iPhones. If and when a better one comes out I don’t want to be married to a specific footprint (maybe it’s commitment issues) lol
