Went ahead and ordered a Langdon RDO slide for my Beretta 92

I love mine.

It’s sitting next to me as I type this.

Between my 1911s/2011s and my pasta pistol I haven’t shot a Glock in almost a year.

Wait, DocSherm did let me shoot his in October. So uncivilized. Plastic is for toys!

You are probably right. I’m going to give it a try.

Sam is wrong.

Don’t listen to Sam.

He is usually right. Although he did break down and make that faux Glock. Fauck? Glaux?

Just my preference and a notice to the counselor and SeriousStudent that I will not enter the bidding war once this slide goes on GB.

I have been thinking about buying the whole pistol from ltt. The 92 was my first pistol. I only had 2 complaints, the safety, and the DA trigger. I have stayed away from it recently because you can't put a dot on it.

Getting an ltt fixes all of that since it has a trigger job, is a g model, and now is dot compatible.

The only reason I haven't done it yet is I am very happy with my sigs, specifically my legion, and I may get a RDS for that

You’re gonna hate it. I’ll give you 75% of what you have in it, just to help you out. Truly awful that thing is. Awful.

Well,

I have played with red dots on my .22 for a little while so I guess I will try it out on my Beretta (I have set up Glocks and an FNX before but I am a very grouchy and slow to change type of guy). Anyway, Berettas are by far my favorite guns's to shoot so I decided to fork out the bucks. I have an RMR on my AR that I am going to cannibalize. I think I am going to force myself to shoot with the RDO for a while. I am fortunate enough to have enough ammo stored up for the next year.

One thing that pushed me over the line was the fact that my M9A3 is annoying to shoot with my Silencerco 9k (a fat little can). I have been lucky that my USP 45 with HDs line up nicely with the top of my sights so there is no need for different sights. Unfortunately with the Beretta I needed to get the suppressor height sights. I figure I can kill two birds with one stone with Langdon's slide. I guess I will migrate my X400 back to my 92G-SD since I won't need a laser for low light with the RDO (in theory).

I will keep you guys posted. Hopefully it will get here next week.

Getting the whole pistol would have been way smarter.

Thanks for looking out for me!

RDS on a pistol has changed my life. Game changer once you get comfortable for sure. I hear nothing but good things about that Langdon gun. Should be a hoot to shoot. Enjoy and keep us posted.

This thread is awesome. I hope a magic wishing well that grants 9mm ammo opens up just for the OP, in the OP's backyard.

Welp, it came in! I went ahead and mounted it. Let me tell you, this thing comes with EXCELLENT instructions. They are very clearly written and comes with a QR code to a video of EL setting it up (plus it is easy anyway). Everything you need comes with it except the torque wrench (although it comes with an excellent driver for your wrench). Looking forward to blasting this weekend.
