  1. I have Tripp 10 round magazines for 10mm that fit in the box.  Great mags but I think they stopped making them.  Wilson Combat 9-round 10mm mags work great too.  I stay away from the 40SW mags because of the spacers on the rear of the mags that don't help if you load long.

  2. I used CZ Custom. They did an excellent job and using them again on my second SP01. Don’t have any experience with the other shops you mentioned and just prefer the option of using a different dot. 

  3. The only ones I've found are the Tripp 10 round 10/40 mags. I reload long so the 10mm magazines are the only ones that work for me.  

     

    If your debating on buying them, I would definitely recommend them.  They have worked with no issues.  I'm going to buy more as soon as they're back in stock at Dawson Precision.

    After you have cataract surgery, aren't your eye focused to distance only?  Since there is no lens to focus up close, how do you see the iron sights?  I had my surgery and have 20/30 left and 20/20 in the right, but I can see irons unless it is bright and sunny.  Just curious as to how this works, thanks.


    Yes. I can only see distance and need reading glasses. I can also clearly see the the fiber too...even indoors. 
     

    I shoot target focused so all I need to see is a glimpse of the fiber on the A zone. Same as with the red dot. 

  5. I started transitioning to the red dot when my vision started getting worse with age (63). It got to the point where I could no longer see details in the target and just saw a brown blur. I transitioned to red dot and it helped a lot. I trained with the tape over the red dot’s glass but still was seeing the targets the same, but accuracy was much better.

     

    I went to see an Ophthalmologist and was diagnosed with cataracts in both eyes. I had cataract surgery and my vision returned back to normal. 20/20 in left eye and 20/15 in the right. 

     

    I started dry firing with irons, took videos of myself shooting red dot vs irons and found myself shooting better and faster with irons. 

     

    Us seniors/super seniors are at the age that we start to develop cataracts and maybe that will be the solution. Not saying that it applies to everyone but just a thought. 

     

    Hope this helps.
