    FWIW: Trigger pull in my Lyman Gauge for the RXM: 4lb, 6 oz. This is the "compromise" of carrying to striker fired pistol. If you want a polymer gun with a safe but better trigger pull, carry a gun with with a manual safety or a double/single action gun like the CZ's I have previously reviewed.

    • @ranchmanager9126
      @ranchmanager9126 14 днів тому

      From seeing many reviews now it seems like the trigger pull range is 3.5 to 4.3 lbs.

      @markreynolds6715 14 днів тому +1

      If striker fired gun manufacturers gave the option of a good ergonomic safety, then they could lighten the trigger according the intended use and user. We have this ridiculous tradition of no safety on striker guns that came out of nowhere but I'm smarter than you between the ears so I don't need a manual safety. lol.

      Sorry but there are far better Glock 19 Gen 3 clones already available on the market than the RXM. Three that I can name are 1) the Bul Armory Axe Tomahawk in both full size & compact versions 2) the Bul Armor Axe Hatchet in both full size & compact versions 3) The Emtan Ramon. (Note of these 3 the Emtan Ramon is not available for sale in the USA). All 3 are upgraded with features such as Tritium sights, front serrations, better triggers & can take Glock mags

      I think there’s (partially) a good reason for that. A lot of the Glock clones are less reliable. PSA is a perfect example. The QC issues people complain about are real. after owning Glocks and Daggers, I would never trust a Dagger for an EDC/defense gun. Can you get a bad Glock? Sure, but it’s very very rare. My hope is that this Ruger is the answer to the PSA issue. It can provide a great deal of value at a price slightly higher than a Dagger, but $200-$250 less than a Glock MOS. Optics-ready out of the box, better optics mounting system than MOS, tritium sights, etc. The modularity is OK (I don’t care about it personally, but it’s cool). The trigger is about 1.5-2 pounds lighter, which is a pro and con, but may appeal to people who don’t love the Glock trigger. I’m used to the Glock grip angle, so I’d prefer a grip module at that angle. That said, I can see that this may appeal to people who complain about grip angle. I’m rooting for this gun. I don’t think these guys are out-Glocking Glock. They may be out-PSAing PSA.

      I have also held off on the dagger. Almost bought one and the recover tactical PDW system for black Friday but held off. I got mine as a companion for my ep9. This might supercede it though if someone makes a PDW chassis which is honestly the main reason I bought it is banking on that. Sales guy said he heard a rumor someone is already working on one but he could have been blowing smoke up my ass for a sale. Either way I was happy with it after using the range rental yesterday. If nothing else it's going to be my owb suit carry for my parish safety team and wrol secondary once I get it kitted out.

And I’d like to change the look of my gun without changing the serial number. Magpul will probably come out with different grip designs, and think it’s brilliant DIY without loosing reliability!

    Do you know exactly what parts are compatible with Gen 3 parts? Or maybe its easier to just say what's not compatible? I assume you could just slap a completed Gen 3 Glock slide on it but are all the parts held within the FCI compatible with Gen 3 Glock parts? It'd be great if it had issues, or they dropped support of the gun to know you could essentially rebuild the whole gun minus the frame and FCI chassis itself with Glock parts. I do recall some of the pins being shortened to fit inside the frame but that's not a big change.

For some reason no one mentions that. No trigger pull information? What's up with that? I prefer the stainless slide with a really nice finish over it. I also like a stainless barrel. I wonder what prompted Ruger to go with alloy? Also how are you supposed to git a grip frame from Ruger with no fire control unit if they are serialized in sets with the fire control unit?

    Ruger’s engineers/designers, have the talent and could have brought something original and truly innovative to the table, yet they decided to clone Glock’s older Gen3 design instead. Updating it with features common in today’s striker-fired guns doesn’t make it new. This isn’t innovation. This is clearly a move to cash in on expired patents, and the true brilliance remains with Gaston Glock, not Ruger.
