Thanks for the update on the 507k. Really interested in trying that one out; just need another gun or slide to put it on since I only have the one so far...LOL

Primary Arms has it available for pre order again...ETA: Late Feb.

Did you have any regrets about getting the Glock 48 or Maple Leaf Firearms milling your slide? I had them do some slide serrations on my Glock 43 and 21 and was very happy with the work. The 43 I had them do over a year ago (pre pandemic) and they let me bring it to them and they milled it while I waited. Very cool and great service. How is that setup working for you?

I bought a 43x frame earlier in the year. Got all the Shield Arms goodies on it. And I was simply swapping over my 43 slide when I wanted something with a little more capacity. Found that Suarez International was selling complete milled slides with a comp on it for the 43x/48. It was a package where you send them the frame, the put their trigger on it and stipple the frame. A month into my 2.5 month wait to get it back, Glock comes out with the MOS version of the 43x/48 that has a light rail. I spent quite a bit of money on the Suarez setup and I would have probably been better off with the Glock MOS. Especially with the trouble I had with it initially :banghead:

I know it's not exactly a triangle but Primary Arms should have a chevron soon (possibly late December)...

I actually caught this yesterday on an IG live feed. Pretty interesting concept and makes sense on making it faster to chase the dot. I just got my first Red Dot pistol done and if I do a second, I'll definitely give this one a look see.

I am picking up my Glock 48 MOS from GrabaGun either Friday or Monday. I waited patiently for them to get the MOS version back in stock as I didn't want to deal with sending off the slide to be milled. Now I am on the hunt for a red dot to put on it and a holster to carry it in.

Any ideas on the holster?
