Just ordered the Viper from Vortex and the plate from the company mentioned above.
Got a few jackets for me and the family as well. Can't beat the discounts!

Eotech dropped a new pistol red dot that looks ugly but is an OK price
Hooks in has a new one coming out that cowitnesses and is solar powered. I think the solar powered thing is a bit gimmicky since most people dont open carry or store their guns on their windowsills.

I am really not a fan of shake awake. Just something else to fail. Give me 25,000 to 30,000 of constant on and I will remember to change the battery once a year. A top load battery is also a nice feature.
Or 50k with no shake awake... aka Trijicon (and now aimpoint acro p2 allegedly)
Agreed more is better but at what price? Like I said above I'll change the battery once a year. Longer than 30K hours really doesn't make a difference to me.
It was two 9mm rounds not to long ago now it’s six rounds.Yup I change my rmr battery once a year. Who knows I may have 1-2 years still on the battery. But here's the thing they are cheap so why not change it once a year.. you can get a 4 pack for like $12 so what $3 a year why even be cheap and worry about it and not change them
Well, I stand corrected. Egg on face, etc.Me takes deep breath
Me after an extremely quick search. Here is just a quick few photos showing that irons do in fact fail, and it's not just one or two times. Again. This was a very quick search of only one source, many many more can be found
Well, I stand corrected. Egg on face, etc.
It’s almost stupid not to. If the option is available for your specific pistol to run a quality red dot, do it. The future is now. If optics weren’t better than irons you wouldn’t see 99% of rifles running some sort of optic.Everything has the potential of failing. My pistols have red dots (primary sight) and irons as back up. And yes I have and will put red dots on every pistol I carry.
I’ve seen multiple irons fail first person. Front irons fall off, rear irons drifted out, both of them chipped, shit happens. Try and buy quality parts and them failing should happen much less. As for your optic acting weird, it it’s really doing all kinds of weird shit, reach out to Holosun and they’ll most likely send you a new one to swap and send the broken one back.Well, I stand corrected. Egg on face, etc.
I mean, I always assumed one could break their iron sights, just that it rarely happened.
And there are certainly far fewer points of failure in a set of static, metal pistol sights than in an electronic red dot.
But I have to ask, even though my statement was premature, and irons can fail, what exactly is my alternative vs. red dots? As far as I know, it's one or the other, and I'm not going to put a red dot on every pistol I own in the event that my irons fall off unexpectedly.
OFT has been teaching this for awhile.
