Palmetto State Armory is very excited for the release of the new Dagger handgun. We have put countless hours of research, design and testing into our latest offering, and we look forward to its Palmetto State Armory is very excited for the release of the new Dagger handgun. We have put countless hours of research, design and testing into our latest offering, and we look forward to its debut.
Current world events have taken a toll on industries of every kind, and ours is no exception. We have taken extensive measures to keep our team and families healthy and safe during this time, and that has required some readjustments internally. We expect no different from those with whom we do business. Safety and security should be top priority for all of us at this time. Current events are putting a halt on supply chains everywhere. We have been told by our suppliers to expect a minimum 2 -3 week delay on receiving the last of the parts we need to get the Dagger into its final phases. This means we have to expect the release date of the Dagger to follow accordingly. While we initially hoped for a release in late March or early April, it is our approximation that the Dagger's release will now come in early May 2020. Should this timeline change, we will provide those details here. The release of the Dagger is our most anticipated event right now. Its delay is as disappointing for us as we know it is for you, but we promise to make it worth it. We appreciate your understanding. Palmetto State Armory |

Saw on the daily deal email the FDE Dagger is back and it has a doctors cut slide. What is that? How is it different than an RMR cut? What optics will fit it? I just don't understand what all RDS's are out there and which ones fit which cut.

If we live in a state that bans threaded barrels can we have it swapped for a regular barrel? I really want sku: DG01-51655123378 and it’s legal just once it has a threaded barrel it’s an assault weapon and banned

What style is the light rail on the Dagger? Glock, 1913, ?

Finally got around to picking up my Dagger frame from the ffl I use. Ordered the frame w/SIG Foxtrot all on the daily deal email special. The light didn't come with the frame. Contacted Support and am waiting to hear back.
I love the Dagger frame. Much more comfortable than my gen 3 G19. And the trigger pull is lighter. Big plus. |

I hated going to weddings. All the grandmas would poke me and say "You're next". They stopped that when I started doing it to them at funerals.

I was reading some review the other day, and they stated that the Dagger doesn't share the Glock 'drop' safety. Dagger uses the same trigger housing mechanism, therefore has the 'ledge' for the cruciform that prevents accidental drop firing doesn't it?

Says it has two of the three Glock safeties
"SAFETY The Glock 19 uses their patented Safe Action System, consisting of three safety mechanisms: Trigger safety, firing-pin safety, and drop safety. Glock Safe Action System The Dagger has two safeties: a trigger safety and a striker block safety. Overall, both handguns are safe and functional, provided you follow all four rules of basic firearms safety." |

Does anyone here not shoot the Dagger as well as the Glock? I can't seem to shoot mine as accurately and am wondering if it is because of the hinged trigger.

quick question, I noticed that PSA has the RMR SW2 cut fde slide and barrel on sale for $199 shipped
and their frame + soft case is on sale for $109.99.... am I correct in that there is nothing more to do than field assemble the slide onto the frame and call it a day? I only ask instead of buying a complete gun is that it's like $50 cheaper to just buy the slide and the frame and slide them together with the features on the slide than buying the complete gun. just wondering if there was some "fitment" or hand fitting that needed to be done to make it a complete gun and it's easier to buy a complete pistol, or whether just field assemble and go. Just wanted to make sure it was that simple, or whether there was a "catch" for getting them that cheap Slide The Frame |

"wormraper" It's the same fit as the complete gun. I just bought the same lower deal for $109.99 and the SW3 Upper for $199.99, only thing missing is the MAGPUL PMAG.

I picked them up. figured it'll be fun to test the Dagger waters with this since I have a gazillion OEM glock and Pmag G19 mags just crossing fingers that I don't have the "pmag sticks in the frame" issues that some people have had with the green and FDE frames lately |

I have a couple of Glocks, no problem removing the trigger pin.
On my Dagger, I've tried every trick I've read about or watched on YouTube, including the last one I viewed clamping the trigger portion of the frame in soft jaws, and grabbing the slide lock empty mag catch with pliers wiggling/pushing back and forth, etc. but can't for the life of me remove the trigger pin. Is there some other magic I can try? |

Well I already happened to have a Lone Wolf threaded G19 barrel on hand, as well as a OEM RSA plus who knows how many glock mags. So if you do the math this thing cost me $250 bucks minus transfer fees. $120 for the frame + sig foxtrot 1x light, and $130 for an RMR cut slide. Sure, an OEM G19 isn’t that much more considering barrel, 3 mags, etc. But it doesn’t come with an optics cut and I’d have to replace the shitty plastic sights. Plus now all my spare glock parts are going to start magically growing into pistols. Thanks PSA, I don’t know how you guys manage to do it, but I think it’s a winner and a helluva value. |

The one thing I didnt like is the Steel guide rod spring squeak. Replaced them with OEM Glock guide rod.

Steel guide rods are a solution looking for a problem. Steel guide rods can bend causing malfunctions. Sure plastic can melt under extreme shooting regimens, but realistically plastic is more reliable. |

May need to get one of those as opposed to a G19 slide off of eBay. |

I got a slide and lower last week over the Labor Day weekend deal and all I can say is wow it’s freaking awesome I’m going to buy another one.
It’s got the slide lightning cut with a threaded barrel and RMR cuts. The lower came with the sig light, out the door I was $330 and some change for tax. Wow good job psa I was expecting a POS but this thing is super nice! |

Can anyone advise if the full Magpul mag none drop free for the colors frames is still a thing? I'm not really concerned. Just asking.
ETA: Yes it does drop free. You have to MASH the mag release. I changed it to an Glock OEM spring later and that helps a bunch. |

I shoot my Dagger as good, and probably better, than my G19. I think the Dagger's improved ergonomics for my hand are the reason. If you aren't used to a hinged trigger, some dry fire practice will be your friend. I know when I first moved from a Glock trigger to a M&P hinged trigger it was strange for me at first because of how the trigger moved. Note, I think this is more that the trigger messes with your muscle memory than the trigger actually requires significantly more force, etc. I think anyone that shoots a lot knows it's more about keeping your non-trigger-finger fingers stable while moving your trigger finger that produces accuracy. |
