Host for RMR/Carry

[GlockSpock]

So I’ve suddenly been bit with the desire to place an RMR on my carry gun. My first thought was to get an MOS 19, but considered considering other options. 

Id prefer to stay Glock, but am open to perhaps a Walter PPQ, CZ, or other. 

Requirements: 

Must accept Trijicon RMR

9mm

Glock 19 size

15+ capacity

 

I do think the MOS 19 is my choice but open to arguments.

You know you want to be one of the cool kids and RMR an M&P 2.0 Compact. So why you playing?

Well, I'm a Glock guy as that's what I've been shooting the past few decades, so there's that.

But as I've mentioned in another thread, I would go with milling the slide to insure a solid attachment of the RDS. I've elaborated more on my personal reasoning already. 

Here's a couple of links to the folks I looked to while considering to have my 17 milled. Gabe Suarez has been a huge proponent of RDS, the RMR in particular, for quite some time now and therefore has seen a lot of them run though his many classes. I know Gabe can be considered "controversial" by some, but it's difficult to argue with his experience imho.

Another excellent resource for your consideration is Scott "Jedi" Jedlinski of the Modern Samurai Project.

And then there's Aaron Cowan of Sage Dynamics and his incredible study on RDS on pistols for Law Enforcement.

I read countless articles and watched many vids from these sources while trying to decide if I really wanted to make the investment in both time and money. Glad I did.

I carry a gen 4 mos with 3.25 Rmr adjustable and love it... took some practice to get used to but won’t ever go back... thinking about getting a second... probably wait for a gen 5 mos and rmr type 2

Red dots on pistols are the future... in 10 years it’ll be like the old timers today arguing about not needing anything but irons on rifles... or how gay marriage will ruin the world lol

Take a look at a FN 509 Tactical. I just picked one up and put a Viper on it and loving it so far (only 200 rounds or so).  Their mounting system allows for the use of a pretty big variety of red dots which to me is a big plus.
