Good deal, which sights would you recommend then? thanks for stopping by my thread!

I think the most common thing I see for WML is people mounting pistol lights, especially the Surefire X300. Gives you more versatility and is a solid light from everything I've heard.

Ive considered it so I can run it on my glock 21sf as well, but I can always hold a flashlight and use the glock so i dunno..

That takes a lot of extra work, especially when reloading. Plus you lose all the benefits of having both hands-on.

BCM upper with the risII.

Or dd upper

I'm not a fan of spikes. I know they are probably decent quality to an extent, but a friend has two that just always seem to have some issue.
That and I HATE spiders

If you want to save a little money, look at the Streamlight TLR1. You can pick it up for over $100 less than the X300. It's also a very good light. I've had it on my Duty pistol for 3 years and it works very well.

Very true. The TLR1 is what I have had for the last several years. No complaints. I think the X300 outperforms it, but rightly so with the price.
