| the triggers are Aim Surplus house brand, they had them for 24 bucks during the black Friday deals. they won't say who makes them for them, just that they're made in the USA but from looking around I am pretty sure they're made by Overwatch Precision after comparing them but it is just a guess. fit great and works as it should, I like it better than the M&P style hinged trigger they come with. |

My newest Dagger Attached File Attached File El Cheapo Roland Special lol. I did install a Zev Pro trigger assembly which I am really enjoying. The red dot, idk. Got a cheap one to see how I liked a RDS on a pistol. I shot it last weekend for the first time. 200 rounds. I was just as accurate, but slower. The wobble of the red dot around the 10 ring on the silhouette was distracting. I shut it off and just used the open sights. |

What did it take to get the trigger housing pin in there instead of the roll pin? |
Want to bet a case of PMAGS on it?

I added the light and a plain black aluminum backplate. I won't do anything else to it and it will reside on my nightstand. The slide was my son's. He wanted a different one so I ordered it and swapped him. Attached File |

Wish those stainless no optics cut slides were available |

Originally Posted By sigpros: Wish those stainless no optics cut slides were available Originally Posted By sigpros: Wish those stainless no optics cut slides were available I had mine listed in the EE but no serious takers so I withdrew it. If I list it again, I'll let you know! It looked great on Gen 5 Glock frames. https://imgur.com/a/QmAU8F0 |

Here is mine. Frame and slide were bought separately. As shown, it was having persistent failure for the slide to lock back on an empty mag, Glock or Magpul. It also tossed brass all over. It runs perfect without the optic mounted. I'm thinking about getting one of PSA's lightened slides to compensate for the weight of the optic. Attached File |

Different brands, factory or reload, 115 to 147 grain. I also tried a factory Glock 19 RSA. Made no difference. The only thing that seemed to help was removing the optic. |

New FS-S with Glock extended mag release, TLR7 and thinking Holosun 507C ACSS for optic. Caught the slide for $189 and frame for $59  Attached File |

Dagger Compact that was $250 before tax, tags, and title. I changed the trigger to a standard smooth Glock with a minus connector. And put on a 507C and old 500lumen X300 I had. Attached File Only malfunction I have had was the very first round of the first loaded mag falling to feed from the mag. And the first round feeding from a full mags still feels a bit clunky compared to a Glock brand G19 or my Zev OZ9. But it has not hung up second time and has been completely reliable otherwise. I am surprised by how much I like the grip. I think they are visually a bit ugly. And was skeptical before shooting it. But they really nailed the grip shape very solid in hand. And shoots really well. Saw this thread at the same time I saw  How Did They Do It? |
Just picked my Sniper Green frame up a few days ago and also shocked at how much I like the grip and even the feel of the stock trigger. Slide release is smooth as butter but the same can't be said for the mag release  Mated it up with a matching SW2 slide assembly with Faxon match series barrel. Added Glock Gen 5 mags, and decided to go the dark side again with a Chinese made optic from Swampfox. Not sure how I like this iron sight setup yet so looking forward to my first range trip this weekend with it:
