I went to Outdoors Unlimited in Smyrna to find a RMR cut Glock. I was wanting a G34 or a G40 as the two prime candidates. No luck with either of this models but they did have a G45 MOS and a G47 MOS. I am headed to the range tomorrow with a new Glock 45 MOS and a Sig red dot. It is basically a G17 frame with a G19 slide and barrel. It has a different feel without the extra weight of a long slide.

The Sig Red Dot was a bit of a pain to install as the mounting screws were about one thread too long and there was no provision for the front centering lug. I ground off the front lug and took 2 threads off of the mounting screws. It takes a .050 Allen wrench to adjust it. I will give a range report tomorrow.

I also sent my G20 slide out for a Glock RMR cut to work with the Glock adapter plates. It is a startup business where I watched the lead engineer/owner grow up. This is his first large frame as all of his Glocks have been the smaller frames. Michael is also going to make a few decorative cuts in the slide and round the edges to get the weight right for the added Red Dot. He is going to map it to make a new slide and use the new slide as a test for the first large frame cut. Once he can re-produce the slide with the RMR cut he has a new product that he will add to his store. He told me that he was going to use it for an 80% frame for his collection. The only drawback is I will need to get it Cerakoted as he doesn't have that capability yet.
