What are my options for mounting a red dot on the g19 that's not cut for an optic? Thinking about mounting one for the shits n gigs

I would second/third/fourth getting it cut for your optic of choice. I have a glonk 45 mos and while the ease of having it out of the box is nice, it’ll never sit as low and tight as a cut job. I’ve honestly thought about buying another slide and getting it cut for my rmr.

Just make sure you go with someone with a proven track record. Had 2 friends go with random dudes on instagram that returned super weak work.

Another option is buying a brownells slide that’s cut, but I hear folks have had some issues with them from time to time.

G19 is super popular, so as long as you get it cut for a standard pistol optic (trijicon, holosun, dpp, acro, etc) you shouldn’t ever have issues selling it and going back to a normal slide if you decide it’s not for you.

Somewhere in az I think
I gotta say this strikeman laser dry fire setup is pretty legit. Been doing some drills where I draw, double tap and reholster, it seems to be helping. Gonna continue all week then I'll go try it with live ammunition and see what haps
Does it have the laser in the round or a laser connected to the bottom of the barrel?

Took the ar squad out this morning. Everything shot great, got some quality dissipator trigger time in and got the mk12’s first consistent hits at 600yds. Got good dope for 0-600yds now.

Ar pistol with the full size .30 cal can was super quiet, but I cannot wait for my Turbo T2 to get out of jail, need smol can.

Hope everyone is doing well. I kinda dropped off the forum last year because I spiraled into some deep ass depression. It fucking sucked but doing better now and I am starting off 2023 with some fresh clip-on NVD for long range shooting.

Also put together a semi MK12 MOD 0 SPR clone but it's chambered in 6mm ARC. Just built it this week and still need to get a scope for it and work up a load.

Depression sucks. Hope you and the family are doing well still. COVID sucked the life out of all of us to some degree.

Welcome to the mk12 club my dude, also glad to hear the depression is in the rear view. Shit is tough man.

I’ve had good luck with Ramshot Tac, XBR, and Varget with 77gr smk’s w/cannelures and CCI 41 primers. You have a Douglas barrel?

Welcome back to the adventure. It's not an easy road you've been down. I'm happy that you're on your way back to the top of your game.

You and I have never met, so please forgive me for making assumptions. But as they say these days, if you see something, say something. Recovering from a deep depression and then having a discussion about firearms woke me up a little bit. I truly hope you're on the mend and you're well on the road to returning to your perfect self. But don't be afraid to reach out to local health resources if you need them.

Stay great, and my best wishes on your recovery!
