Man I’d love a G19 Gen 3 MOS. I’ve got a Gen 5 MOS and a Dagger with an RMR slide, but it doesn’t quite scratch that itch for some reason.
Thanks for the pics Combat_Diver! |

What exactly does Combat Diver do? I see cargo pants tucked into redwing pecos, and a little extra gut, and a few years on most these guys in the pics, but clearly downrange

@combat_diver and @joescuba
Have either of you encountered custom made dovetail mounts for the Trijicon RMR? I recently came across two bringbacks from a former action guy (no reason to doubt that they are what they are). They resembled the docter dovetail mount on the comped 17 gen 3 rtf many pages back. My guess is they come from the pre-MOs era. Thanks in advance! |

Guys break screws all the time or lose the mounts and have to purchase their own will deployed. |

Would a dovetail mount have also been a necessary evil if the shooter wanted a full size? I haven’t seen any photos of pre-gen 5 dot ready full size guns. Thanks for the info!

Thanks for the info! View Quote FWIW….Pressburg talks about his comp’d G22 and there is a picture of its clone a few pages back. It was a 22 that had a t-1 micro in a dovetail mount with additional screws to hold it in place. He used that until I believe he switched to a t1 in a Raven Balor mount. |

For his personal replica he has it mounted with a unity tactical atom prototype. The RMR mount I found looks much like the EGW you pictured but less refined. The bluing is also turning plum. |

My Glock Armorer's Course Instructor said when he was in the 10th Special Forces Group, they were issued Gen 4 G17, G19, and G26s with minus connectors.
Does anyone know if the Mk26 Mod 0 is issued with minus, dot, or plus connectors or maritine spring cups? |

View Quote Should be a standard 5.5 lb connector for all models (only one NSN in armorers manual) and on the cups Gen 3 vs Gen 4 have a different NSN. Are they maritime cups? I don't have a Gen 4 to inspect. |

Anyone have any pics of regiment using rmrs on their 19s?

Excuse me for not being a military guy, if by regiment you mean any soldier, then yes there are many.
Also, are DPP's correct for the mk27 at all? I hate the field of view on the RMR, love my DPP. Wondering if theyve been seen on the "mk27 Mod 2" or with SEALs. |

Seemed they got the urgi’s later than SF, and was curious if they started using the RMRs yet. |

I had never heard it called that during my times at Bragg. Now Ive seen 75th called regiment and BN over the years with the Bat Boy nickname irritating some of the guys. |

When talking about SF as a whole with programs of records it get used ie up at Group/USASFC/USASOC/SOCOM. Never at lower levels of manning or equipment. Both are under the Army's Regimental system, but you are correct that its used less for SF then Rangers. |
