LESchwartz Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 After a pile of years of gun ownership, I recently obtained my *first* Glock . . . well, not really a Glock, but a DIY pistol on a Polymer80 frame . . . got to say I like it *way* better than I thought. I'm looking to mount the brightest fiber optic sights I can get and am looking for suggestions. I built it up using a Brownells slide with an RMR cut. Eventually I will want to try a Holosun 507C. So I could use recommendations for "suppressor height" fiber optic sights too. Larry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BamaBud Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 (edited) Truglo TFO or TFX are all I've used. They are pretty bright. Can't help with suppressor height. Edited August 22, 2019 by BamaBud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LESchwartz Posted August 23, 2019 Author Share Posted August 23, 2019 (edited) I've been looking at the Dawson MOS set. But I don't know if they are high enough for the Holosun. Larry Edited August 23, 2019 by LESchwartz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LESchwartz Posted September 24, 2019 Author Share Posted September 24, 2019 Hello, The Brownells slide does not need a mounting plate like the Glock MOS pistols. The info I have is that an RMR would use a 0.270 tall rear sight, the Holosun 507C is a little taller than the RMR, so it would need a 0.280 tall rear sight. For some reason the 0.280 tall rear sight, SKU 018-699, is not available on the website. You would need a 0.260 tall front sight. If you want to just order from the website, you could use either a 0.270 tall rear ( you would not be able to see all of the rear sight notch ) or use a 0.305 tall rear sight ( it would stick up a little more than needed ). https://dawsonprecision.com/sights/glock-mos-rear-sights/ https://dawsonprecision.com/dawson-precision-glock-standard-front-sights/ We want to help and don't want to confuse you with anyone else, so please include original message text with all replies.

Larry Sorry for the late reply, but I finally got the funds, the parts, and the time . . . the guys at Dawson said the base of the Holosun 507 is a little taller than the Trijicon RMR. They also said the Brownells slide is cut a little deeper than the Glock MOS slide and it's adapter plate. I figured it would all even out and ordered their "Dawson Precision Glock MOS Fixed Co-Witness Sight Set (For Trijicon RMR and similar red dot scopes)". It worked out really well. Nice co-witness in the lower third. I'm declaring victory! Of course, YMMV. Larry Edited December 25, 2019 by LESchwartz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
