Besides the Swampfox kit, are there any other kits out there to get a good basic set of optics screws? Always nice to have on hand, but paying $8 or more a pair of screws is absurd.

It looks like ass, but works amazingly. I always like their optic plates for my P10’s. However, with the 75 series pistols and just CZ Cajun is good. Didn’t realized they were doing optic cuts. Just picked up a compact and now I am thinking about getting that done. |

Glock 20.5 MOS 10mm large frame with Holosun SCS. Direct fit to slide with factory irons cowitness.
   Had to get use to the 10mm snappy recoil 1st few shots. PSA made 10mm ammo feels like real 10mm, not 40 S&W ammo. G20.5 Holosun SCS. 50 yard two 1 foot steel plate transitions. 1st time shooting this pistol, G20.5 10mm Holosun SCS. 25 yards. Three 1 foot steel plate transitions. |

Holosun SCS Glock 19.5 MOS 50 yards, Two 1 foot steel plates
Both my G20.5 and G19.5 Holosun SCS RDS's work well at the 50 yard distance. Being cowitnessed with the factory iron sights makes the Holosun SCS fast to draw and shoot, also fast shooting transitions. Want a G26.5 MOS with a Holosun SCS. Glock 20.5 MOS Holosun SCS. No jams yet...  |

I own three Glock 19 Gen 5 MOS pistols.
  I practice shoot and dryfire with all three.1. Trijicon SRO Medium round count 2. Holosun SCS Light round count 3. Trijicon RMRcc with Large round count 12,000 ++. Smooth trigger and break with this much wear. Even the grip feels smoother than the other two G19.5.  |

Correct, I don't think there's anything wrong with their functionality and they are probably more durable than their open emitter counterparts. Which is why I think it would be a fab choice on a larger firearm where it doesn't stick out like a wart (SROs are kind of ugly too) |
