Considerations & Trade-offs
- Optic-ready setup is specific to a direct slide cut for the Trijicon RMR, so compatibility is narrower than a universal mounting system.
- The modular grip system adds flexibility, but it also means users need to choose the grip size and texture that best fit their needs.
- Included magazines are limited to one each of 12-, 15-, and 18-round capacity, so additional capacity options would require separate purchase.
- The two-tone black and FDE finish is a defined look rather than a neutral all-black configuration, which may matter for users seeking a different appearance.
