Mr. J, Mr. Shadoh, and Mr. Doug - Let me try to answer your questions. 1. The RM02 sight on my G26 is always on. No switch, no sleep mode, no extra step on the draw. Battery life is 17,000 hours or about two years. I'm gonna change my battery next year. 2. I am carrying it in a Tucker Cover Up holster at Appendix (think 1 o'clock from my belt buckle). I am a chubby middle-aged guy, not some slender Pepsi-generation warrior. The sight lies alongside my body. No issues. Same for carrying Strong Side behind my hip in a Tucker "The Answer". YMMV. 3. The Dual Illumination RMR's trit

Let me address your points one at a time: 1. More difficult to conceal? No. what is usually hard to conceal is the butt of the gun, since it sticks away from the body. The RDS is on top of the slide and against my body. 2. Second shot follow-up? I do not have the neuro-motor skills to track my front sight thru slide recoil, as the top-ranked competitive shooters do. My eyes stay focused on the target from shot to shot. Muscle memory puts the gun back on target. The dot verifies point of aim. 3. Competition? IDPA will probably have issues with the gun. IPSC, I don't think so. Either

My thanks to everyone for their input. Here's what I decided: * Install the AMS Machine mount on my S-12 and use the RM02 (8moa LED) sight. * Put the RM03 (13moa dual illumination) sight on my Glock 19, after I get OST to mill the slide. * Save my milk money to buy another RM02 for the Glock 19. * When I replace the sight on the Glock 19, I will move the RM03 to be an auxiliary / CQB sight for my Kalashni-Scout. As for the G26 with RDS, here it is: Bill

Pardon my ignorance, but I don't see how this helps my situation. I can buy a FastFire ($200) and skip using the RM37 adapter plate (return for $53 refund). That's still more money out of my pocket. What I don't care for in the FastFire is: The dot is small (4moa). The dot isn't nearly as bright as those on the Trijicon sights. The FF has an ON/OFF switch. The FF is fairly fragile (don't ask me how I know this). Bill

I put an 8moa Trijicon RMR on my Glock 26 (thanks, OST Tech Services!) earlier this year. Love it! I got a great deal on another RM02 (8moa LED) and an RM03 (13moa dual-illumination). My plan was to put the RM02 on my Glock 19 and the RM03 on my Saiga 12. After Tony Rumore finished my S-12, he recommended a Saiga mount from AMS Machine. It fits nicely in the original rear sight dovetail. And I like the fact that it has ears on either side to protect the sight. The mount cost $89. One problem: it was designed for the Docter RDS. It needs an adapter plate. So I got a Trijicon RM37 pl
