Aesthetics are equal to the pistol it is on.Tony cowden did a small review and said it was fine. If you have an issue picking up a dot now it’s because of a lack of training. This optic would be even worse without training. If you can pick up a dot fine now I’m sure it wouldn’t be an issue. This thing is UGLY though. Lol icky...
Must be looking at the M&P modelAesthetics are equal to the pistol it is on.
It was mentioned in something I saw that to remove the back plate, removal, reinstallation and re zero would be required. At least for the G****It looks like an electronic ghost ring sight. Without seeing it, I would wonder how the additional weight to the slide might affect recoil, cycling, and its concealability. One thing that seems to be a flaw in the design; if you want to clean your striker channel, it looks like you'd have to remove the optic. How easy is that to do, and how do you easily retain a zero?
I do like that the battery is in an easy to replace location, but the small window seems to remove a crucial benefit to using a RDS.
That was exactly my thought, vertical would have shrunk the footprint, and possibly even done in such a way that it could be detached so it wouldn't interfere with removing the striker channel.First, Sage Dynamics.
Second, WHY!!! is the battery compartment not vertical!!!!
Leupold needs to fire the hacks that dropped the ball on battery placement.
It would most likely be the same with the M&Ps. So for a home defense handgun, it sounds like you should clean it at the range, and then re-zero it while you're there.It was mentioned in something I saw that to remove the back plate, removal, reinstallation and re zero would be required.

This came across my feed today. It's definitely different but no slide cuts are needed for G**** or M&P pistols. It looks really small and the field of view does too. But the extra hanging off the back?
I guess it's an option for some.
