or Carry Optics if you want to just be bland about it. 😜

Since the bastard child of USPSA is starting to blossom pretty well, toss in some new gun rulings, and people making aftermarket stuff, there has to be some creative toys. 

I will start with this ugly sumbitch....
Non milled slide ---poors
SP-01---- pretty close to poors
SRO 5 MOA ---Not poors or True Open 
CGW internals ----not so poors
Hennings basepads with nickle mags and Grams guts ----True Open fashion 
Nitro Fin by Shooting Sports Innov.---- Open Thumbrest not poors 
Wide CZC Safety ----2nd Open Thumbrest---not poors.

I really like this division by the way. I have more fun doing this than Open. Cheaper too (hence Open Poors).

I’m looking at that thinking, “Hey, that gun looks familiar...” Did you get the dot issue sorted out?

The nice thing about it being poor is you can buy a few of them 😘

That's the first close up pics of F4E setup that I've seen. Thanks for posting, Wrecks. Looks like they machined for a removable insert that widens the base and allows for an adapter-less attachment.

yup, seems the adj. moved. Not internal though. Doing more experiment on it. "

Having a second helps to see what the deal is too. Now I gotta shot em both.... LOL

You don't ride thumb over it while shooting?

I think I do but I think that I must push the back of it at times and lever it on.  I put my Shadow sp-01 safety back on with the stronger spring and no problems

I have a CZ75B Omega Tactical that I would love to get into carry optics with. Are there any issues with using just the dovetail mount over getting the slide properly milled? When I checked with Primary arms it sounded like they can't get milled very deep anyways.

How are the Romeo optics compared to the SRO?

I am on the fence and leaning toward the 5moa SRO for my Shadow 2.

I haven't had the SRO long enough to give a great review on durability - I've only put about 500 down the pipe on it. It is a nice big glass but does have a bit more distortion than the Romeos.

 

The Romeo on the S2 was great, went through 12,000 rounds with it and never had a hiccup. The Romeo on the S1 has been s#!t and I've replaced it 3 times already. Thankfully Sig has a good warranty program.

 

If I were making recommendations I'd probably do the SRO on reputation and form factor, but you can't go wrong with either.

Is it any worse fitting than a CGW trigger is, and how hard is it to mod?

For Production, the outside needs about 1.5mm taken off to fit in the box, nothing on the outside for CO. 

To use the actual slide lock, there is a lot of material that needs to come off the inside.

What is the frame optic mount you are using? 

Neumount.  It's nice,  solid and as low as possible.  The rail mount weight in front of it is my own.  I made different sizes to tune.  Mag well will finish it.  Then I need a holster, Any ideas ?  Hate to break the bank on a holster for a budget gun.  Merry Xmas.
