    Where’s the slide stop release?

    I was watching this teaser video for the Shield RMSw and I noticed there is no slide release on the pistol. Is this a special configuration? Any ideas?

    Not installed, at 3 to 4 seconds you can see the slide catch cut out on the slide.

    If I agreed with you, we'd both be wrong.

    The last thing I want to do is hurt you,
    but it's still on my list.

    Could be that the guyleft it out on purpose. That way when he is operating operationally the distinct noise of the Glock locking back doesn't alert his adversary. Lessons learned from the Garand

    That is why I carry a sack full of clips. Fire 8 rounds, throw a clip on the ground, when they pop up I shootz again and again.

    I hit up my buddie that works at Shield Sights and he said it was broken and they haven't had a chance to fixing it yet. He also said all of the new RMS sights are shipping with the new scratch resistant lens.

    I just go "Ruh-roh, I'm out of boolets" but your way might work better.

    Off subject, I've seen them but can't find wher to get the t-shirt that says

    bang, bang,
    bang, bang,
    bang, bang,
    bang, bang,
    PING

    I need one.

    I like what Clint Smith says about that: “You just fired 8 rounds of 30-06; everyone is deaf.”

    Thanks! Like Paul Harvey used to say, “And now you know the rest of the story. Good day.”.

    I’m interested to see how this newest model from them holds up.
