Micro Dagger-When? (Page 1 of 3)

Is there an actual release date for the micro Dagger? I'm not getting any younger!

Also, I don't understand the micro magazine problem. Would seem PSA could design one to use a 15-round mag the same as a compact Dagger. Would save having to have a different magazine. Must be a reason why.

I really like my compact Daggers and would like a better carry size Dagger. Waiting with anticipation.

Micro dagger is akin to a 43x.  Dagger is akin to a 19.  Those mags aren't cross compatible.  They went with the 43x width to get in on the slim subcompact market. That's why.

They released black and FDE slides within the past 2wks, I'm sure there will be some more up for sale soon.

They're probably not going to release the complete gun until the mags are ready to go. I would assume that oem 48/43x mags will work, maybe they'll put some frames up soon.

Mags dropped around 4 EST today but sold out in a couple minutes.   More mags for Micro Dagger to be released throughout the week.   I figure complete slides or complete pistols will hit the market in the next four to six weeks but time will tell.

If not out by 4th of July I'm  going with Glock to get  another.

Okay, I must be dense, why are people buying the mags and slides when no frame is available?

Why?

My understanding is the in stock email is only sent when items have been in stock for over 1 hour.

The majority of people buying magazines are buying them for the Glock 43x and Glock 48.

Thanks for the reply, and makes sense.

And the slides, are they compatible with the Glock 43 and 48? Maybe to mount red dots?

I own two Glock 19's, but I am not familiar with the 43 and 48.

The slides work with the Glock 43, 43X, and 48.

I ordered a slide from PSA with 407K last night for my 43X. It will replace the factory silver slide currently on the gun.

For $320, I could not get the factory slide milled, and pick up a 407K, which is the optic I wanted for this one anyway.

Good deal. Believe they are still in stock.

I'm sure my silver slide will end up on a PSA frame eventually.

Thanks Wraith.

I am waiting for Palmetto to make the Micro Dagger available. It will replace my S&W Shield, my vehicle gun, which I bought when they first came out many years ago. I now feel under-gunned with the Shield. I have considered one of the newer Shields, but I would rather go with the Micro Dagger, if they get good reviews.

I have two Compact Daggers and they have been super. Both already have their dedicated use for me.

I think Palmetto has changed the handgun market for the better. Let's hope the Micro is as good or better then the compact!

Waiting!

I agree. Here's to Palmetto keeping up the good work.

I have two compact daggers, and a full size. The full size has taken over as my truck gun. Think I'm going to keep the tricked out compact, and give the other one to my son.

Carried my Gen 1 Shield for years. Picked it up during the Great Rebate of 2017 just because it was cheap. Took over as my primary carry almost immediately.

Picked up the optic ready Shield Plus with the bag and four mags on special. After wringing it out, I gave my old Shield to one of my daughters. She got her carry permit, and was looking at a Taurus. Nothing against them, but no.

My 43X has been sitting on the sideline since I got the S+. I'll test it out with the new slide & optic combo. May become my new desk gun for work.

I snagged 3 to try out.
I had no issues with shield arms mags but I’ll switch over to these if the prove reliable.

Got 3 Friday.

I’m not the smartest but PSA making a gun and basing it off of their own mag should mean it’s pretty solid.

I’m excited for these!

Back in stock. Ordered 4.

I am definitely ordering a micro Dagger, after they have been out awhile. I am not in a hurry, I would rather PSA get it right before release.

@wraith1323-

How did this work out with you? The Micro Dagger slide work with the 43X frame or no? Asking because I now have an assembled slide inbound. Is the optics plate a direct mount that the RMRcc would fit right into without issue?

PSA beta tested the mags on our 43x’s with positive results.

Sorry to say I have moved on. Dug my old S&W 9C out of storage, cleaned her up, and she is now my car pistol.

My first model Shield is now basically retired.

Looking forward to reviews on the Micro someday!

It has a rail and all Micro Dagger slides are optic cut.

If you're not mounting a light or an optic, I certainly do not see a reason to get one.

You could pick up a MC-1 slide to give you a Glock version of the P365 xmacro.  The assembled slide is $180 and you could reuse your current barrel and RSA.  It will essentially make it Glock 48 length.

Well they did offer a couple for sale, for like 7 seconds. I'll be curious how many were sold but they would never release that.

I’ve been pretty patient waiting for this but I’m tired of waiting.

I’m not waiting 6 more months to save myself $100.  
I tried PSA. Sorry

This.. ^

Have spare 43 and 43x parts that have been laying around since I own both models. Was holding out for a micro since it had a true rail. Gave up on Friday and ordered a MOS frame from black phoenix customs. I will say the PSA mags have all run super smooth in the 43x.

I never thought I'd see a bigger clusterfuck than the Compact Dagger.  The Compact Dagger debuted at SHOT Show (January) 2020.  We were told at the time that the Compact Dagger would ship in March 2020.  PSA started accepting orders (not preorders) for the Compact Dagger in September 2020.  The Compact Dagger pistols ordered in September 2020 didn't ship until May 2021.  By definition, a clusterfuck.  The Micro Dagger debuted at SHOT Show (January) 2022.  We were told at the time that the Micro Dagger (ETA) would ship in six to nine months.  And after the Compact Dagger debacle, you know the July to October 2022 Micro Dagger ship date was extremely conservative.  Yet here we are, almost November 2023.  We can debate whether the Compact Dagger or Micro Dagger is a bigger clusterfuck.  In either case, PSA has this down to a science.
