I'd also get the apex trigger kit for the shield if you're not opposed to modifying the trigger and the potential legal ramifications it might have. After it was installed it was literally night & day with the trigger pull & reset.

I don’t mind doing trigger work. I have a few M&P full sized guns and don’t mind the stock triggers but I’m interested in the apex

Nice job! How long did you have to wait for the Dove Dot to come in? They are on backorder right now for both my Shield and my Glock. Popular kits.

@Threat.level.midnite 6 ай бұрын

A buddy of mine ordered them a few months ago but back then they were in stock so it shipped right away

And yeah so far they’re great. We probably have 500 rounds on the Glock kit and it holds zero just fine and we’ve had no issues at all. The shield probably only has 150-200 on it

I thought so too! And so far they are holding up just fine on the range I haven’t run thousands of rounds through them but about 500 on the Glock and 300 on the Shield

I love . I have a 407c on my 2.0 and a 507k they are great. If i could do it again i would still get the holosun but id recommend the primary arms acess verson. The chevron is a more precise shot. But you cant beat em.@Average_Joe_Arms

Awesome video! Do you know of a holster that’ll fit with the raised front sight and optic? Thanks!

@Threat.level.midnite 5 ай бұрын

Most Kydex holsters have a front sight channel large enough to accommodate it. I’ve seen this gun fit into CYA holsters from Amazon as well as Tier One concealed holsters so the sight height really shouldn’t change the fit

Something I ran into you might want to be aware of. I didn’t realize the set screw was already screwed into the plate when I got it. So I put the plate on with the set screw installed. Seems to be fine but possibly could have damaged the screw..Question- On the California model the plate goes over the loaded indicator. Is this legal? It still comes up some.

@Threat.level.midnite 21 күн бұрын

I think it should be fine. And as far as legality it’s not a problem at all. Those standards are set more manufacturers for selling handguns in CA. What you do with it after purchase doesn’t change its legal status

Only if the screws are cheap Allen heads and the metal is softer than my wrench.

I did this exact install without a vise and it was pretty easy. How do you remove the "gold dust" on the sights from punching ?

@Threat.level.midnite 4 ай бұрын

I just use a lot of pressure and wipe. Usually gets all the brass punch residue off

@@edesp007 funny you would ask 2 min ago as I was just removing the rear site off my beretta m9a1 2 min ago with no vise. You just hold the fire arm down firmly and whack it. Make sure you don't strike the slide. Took me 1 min to remove with a brass punch.

Is this dove adapter compatible with all subcompact optics or is it only compatible with the holosun?

@Threat.level.midnite 5 ай бұрын

You have an option for the optic when you order the plate. This cut I believe was the rmsc cut. Holosun generally mirrors trijicons footprints

Too bad they are always out of stock. Seems like they are a small company with zero capital or reserves. They are living payment to payment and don't have any stock to fulfill orders. They don't respond to inquiries about expected delivery times for out-of-stock items. Not a great way to operate.

@Threat.level.midnite 5 ай бұрын

Yeah I think they’re pretty small. If you reach out on Instagram they’re pretty good about getting back to you right away. I installed these for a friend so I didn’t go through the order process or ever need to reach customer service. I’ve definitely heard they are out of stock a lot that’s for sure.
