    Malfunction-Clearing Techniques Need To Be Second Nature

    Don't know if that was an intentional Inigo Montoya reference, but I read the rest of your post with his accent in my head.

    Pistol optics-height sights with a red dot...

    You're right. Its just messing with my brain to get used to not looking for the irons, but it is getting better all the time. I'd still like to be able to use the irons if the need arose. The holosun on the adapter plate makes that very difficult. Still not sure if I'll eventually go to...

    Pistol optics-height sights with a red dot...

    Thanks for all the advice. I'm guessing if I was built more like pat it'd help control the gun a bit too. What a gorilla. 😲 Just kidding, I know there's plenty of a scrawny shooters better than me too. 🤣 Either way, thanks again for the help, I'll check out the bass cliff posts.

    Pistol optics-height sights with a red dot...

    I read somewhere on here I believe that a guy mounted his mantis to the bottom of his magazine instead of the accessory rail so he could still use his regular holster. Is that possible?

    Pistol optics-height sights with a red dot...

    I'm located in a bit of a desert in terms of tactical/competitive pistol training availability. I did find a local guy willing to give 1v1 lessons for $20/hr, which seems like a heckuva deal to me if he's any good. He has several national certifications with the big shooting groups, although...

    Pistol optics-height sights with a red dot...

    Thanks. I haven't heard of Night Fission before so its good to here from someone who has them. I'd been debating getting a cheapie sight pusher for the job because I don't do that many, but maybe I'll let an expert handle it.

    Long Awaited Shiloh Sharps .45-70 Arrived

    That's incredible. What's the accurate range for something like that.

    Pistol optics-height sights with a red dot...

    Thanks, that does help. I was rolling it up because it seemed like I found it faster from the bottom, but rolling it down brings it into cowitness much easier.

    Pistol optics-height sights with a red dot...

    Thanks for the advice. I really, really like the red dot, just need to learn how to use it well. I do have astigmatism, and trying to line up 3 focal planes (target, front, rear) is sometimes a struggle. I definitely can't do it with both eyes open. It was a revelation how easy it was to...

    Pistol optics-height sights with a red dot...

    This is my first RDS and I'm still getting used to acquiring the dot in the window. My brain just can't quite comprehend where the dot is when it can't orient the pistol relative to the iron sights. I know that it'll take a lot of practice and training to get used to it, but I also think that...

    Pistol optics-height sights with a red dot...

    Considering replacing the stock sights on my hellcat (which I love - the ball & bucket is very quick to aquire) with something taller so I can cowitness with a holosun 507k. I can only see the very top flats of the stock sights past the holosun. I'm considering going to something like these...

    Best red dot sight for HellCat Pro

    If the depth of the optics cut on the pro is the same as my regular hellcat OSP, then a holosun 507k is too thick to see much of the stock sights, especially if you decide to use an adapter plate. It appears the RMSc is thin enough to allow you to see a much larger portion of the stock sights.

    Hellcat #2 trigger heavier than Hellcat #1 . . . advice needed

    I realize this thread is a bit old, but I'm curious if you ever went with the PRP. I am having the exact same issue with my hellcat. I don't know trigger pull, but it is painful to shoot without gloves. Pinches my trigger finger exactly as you describe. I have a Hyve Monarch trigger coming...
