    I got a blem with Docter cut for a red (green) dot for $300. In 2023 the trigger isn't bad, and once I got it zeroed it STACKS rounds in the target at 10 yds. The grip fits my hand better than a Glock, and the Dagger doesn't feel as slide heavy as a Glock. I'm very happy with mine, especially for the price.

    I bought one about a month ago. Yes you can get them as other have said when they list them from 3:30-4pm est every day. I bought the carry cuts model in grey for $349 and it’s been great! I did the $.25 trigger job on the internals and it totally smoothed the trigger out. I also decided to buy a Ranger Proof shoe for it. After installing it I decided to take it back out and return it as the drop safety was completely inoperable. The pull with the trigger was awesome but I didn’t like the fact that it disabled the drop safety. I told myself that I wasn’t going to wrap up a bunch of money in upgrades on a $350 pistol that’s basically a nightstand/travel weapon and it’s getting a olight and that’s it. I have been happy with it after 500rds. Instead of making the dagger something it’s not by changing a bunch of parts, I decided to keep it and also buy a Canik Tp9sfx for a range/comp pistol. Bottom line is it’s a good pistol especially for the price tag and you can get it for $300-$350. There’s no need to buy pay $500 for this thing and not sure why you would.

      @@danielmoua7724 I shot mine loved it. If still wouldn't use i as an EDC. My thinking around firearms is that there will always be lemons. Glock makes lemons. There are glocks leaving the factory that will not work. There are Daniel Defense and Bravo Company that are just not going to work. Every company will create duds. However the more expensive companies have higher denominators. 1/100000 glocks fail vs 1/1000 Daggers. For an every day carry gun the denominator matters, for a range/competition gun it just doesn't. If you really can't afford a higher priced gun, take it to the range. My understanding is if it's going to fail it will either be in first 100 rounds or in the thousands. So if you shoot your gun at the range and it likes your ammo and you don't run into any major problems it'll probably be good for you. Whatever you go with I hope it works and I hope it makes you happy.

    A year later, I bought one and I think they've fixed some of the issues. I got my Dagger for about $250 by buying the slide/barrel and frame separately. . My version is in FDE and had a threaded gold barrel (not my favorite). It is optics-ready (RMR cut) and has suppressor height sights. It has been 100% reliable and it's ridiculously accurate.
    I anticipated a terrible trigger. What I got was a meh trigger that, honestly, is a little better than my older Glock triggers. Frankly, if I had paid 450-500 for this gun, I wouldn't be disappointed. For the 250 I paid, I'm more than happy. It won't be my EDC gun. I mainly bought it for fun.

The guns can only be sold when they have them in stock, which has been problematic up until recently. But the $300ish price has stayed the same with slight variations based on finish (OD, FDE), etc.

My FFL charges $25/gun for transfers. $325 plus tax. I'm very happy. The grip texture is agressive so tends to abrade your skin so make sure your EDC CCW holster has a shield between your skin and the gun. Many but not all Glock 19 holsters will work with this gun. The main problem is the trigger guard shape.

    I recently bought a dagger by parts. Stripped compact lower rmr cut slide and glock 19 threaded barrel and gen 3 lower parts it and stock dagger upper kit got less than 320 in the whole gun. But at same time not everyone had the know how and capabilities to put any gun together safe reliably. Also the gen 3 glock 19 slide does work on the the dagger frame. Closest gum to compare the the stock dagger like in your video is the smith and Wesson sd9. Has same type of shitty hinge trigger and about 5.5lb pull. After doing the work and building a dagger the way I wanted with a 3.5lb trigger bar and apex glock trigger its a very reliable and very comfortable option.

    What a difference a year makes 😀. I just bought a cool PSA slide in sniper green with lighting cuts and a bronze colored barrel for $200 and a PSA black lower for $50. The slide has some very interesting a useful cuts that a different from the mode in the video and also has a RMR optic cut. So $250 although that's without mags or anything else (like a lot of folks I have a few Glock mags kicking around). I might change out the trigger and sights down the road at some point. Maybe a Wheaton Arms trigger.

    Glocks are a cheap entry-level handgun that charges $200+ over what they're worth because they have brand recognition. I believe once time passes these Daggers will have the same brand recognized reliability for half the price of a Glock. Hopefully Glock steps up their game, or starts selling their guns for what they're actually worth.

    I have seen a lot of glocks used for police and military training and if you dont pull the slide back to release it does wear out the slide eventually.

    Great review, basically if i want to build a glock, this is a better starting point. I know you've shot glocks for forever, but as a big CZ guy, whats stopped you from getting a p10 gun and doing a full kit on it? My personal experience is they're a better platform across the board, but i also know parts are harder to find. I just find it harder and harder to justify the Glock name as we get better guns, but i guess the simple question is: other than aftermarket support, why would i buy a glock over an equivalent from another reputable company? Thanks Chris, and keep up the great content!
