As we transition more officers to RDS on their duty Glocks I’ve noticed the rear irons are prone to drifting. The fist time I noticed it about a year ago I just assumed I had bumped it in my holster on duty sometime.
During high round count days my ameriglow all black suppressor sights have drifted noticeably left. During a 600ish round class on Monday one of my teammates and mine had done the same. Conversely one officer had Dawson’s mounted in front of his Delta point and they had drifted right.
Does the added mass of suppressor sights higher up allow them to rock their way out? Does the heating of the slide have something to do with it? Or is it as simple as poor fit?
Either way, we are looking at red locktite and using a punch to fix the sight in place. This was recommended by a CZ factory Smithy in our class.
My 19 was done by ATEI and uses the factory rear dovetail. The second one was on an MOS 17 and the Delta was on a milled Sig done by a local shop.
We can’t be the only ones who’ve noticed this happening. If you have a fix or recommendation let the group know.
So far hitting the corners with a punch has worked.
