Questions:
1) RMR and Glock plastic sights-co witness?
2) Any input on the mag well flare?

No chance on the sights. They're the same height as the previous generation (6.1 mm rear I believe).

The sights are factory height. The optic cut isn’t as low as I’d like so Ty he back up sight height required will be about the same.

The flair on the magwell is on par with the 5.

Got another 300 rounds down range today. Today was bill drills and Bianchi. A mix of speed and Bianchi standards.

The more I shoot it, the better I like the “gas pedal”. I really allows me to lock my grip down and the combination of the low cut grip allows me really good. I wasn’t a fan of the trigger at first but my times on standardized drills are about the same.

But-

I’m sure the trigger has a little to do with it but the accuracy of this gun is amazing. I shot several 5 shot groups today at 25 yards that were sub 3 inches. Had one that was a solid 2.25.

Can you post a pic of the optic with the sights you have on.

I'm trying to decided what sights to order for whenever my 19 gets in.

I'm trying to get the lowest possible sights that barely stick in to the window view.

Before optics, I bought gen4 Height sights for all my gen5 guns because that's where I liked the POA/POI.

I don’t have a functioning host for the pics. If you want to email me I can text you some.

My dealer just called and said my gen6 19 is ready for pickup so I guess I can just try what sights I have on hand after I get it later today.

1000rd break in of my gen6 19.
Magazines used were:
Glock OEM 15rd (gen4/5 mags)
Glock OEM 17rd (gen4/5 mags)
Glock OEM 19rd gen4 mags (17rd mag with Glock OEM +2)
Glock OEM 33rd mags
Magpul 17rd mags
MecGar 18rd mags (both versions)
MecGar 15rd mags

Ammo used were:
Speer 124gr TMJ
Federal 147gr FMJ
Winchester NATO 124gr FMJ
Federal 147gr HST
Speer 147gr G2GD
Speer 124gr +P Gold Dot

I do not like the trigger. I don't have a gauge but it feels heavier and mushy? Hoping Glock releases a GPT for it.

Found an optic collecting dust to try it with and some Ameriglo GL-429 irons.

I will eventually either get another RMR for it (I'm so used to the RMR) or just some Ameriglo Hackathorns and carry it without an optic or light.

Will zero the optic and try some more this weekend.
