I see 2 G19's in the handgun classifieds, one is $600 and one is $700 but I do not see any you have listed.
If a pistol is listed for more than it sells for at Academy It May Be Overpriced.
If I sold a like new VP9 with night sights for $625 that would be a very good price but If I was asking $775 it would be overpriced. YMMV
It's been in the works for the past few months, so you just may not have seen it. I first heard about them being made nearly 7 months ago, but it was just a rumor at the time. With the other MOS models out, it was only a matter of time. I put off buying an Atom slide forever. I just can't justify paying $500 for a slide, then $50+ for a plate, when I could wait and get a whole gun for that price.
My only concern as of now, is how high do optics sit? I don't want to have suppressor sights and still not be able to use them.
There is really no comparison between the two. The ATOM is a far better system and other than prove it doesn't have any of the fleas the MOS stuff is exhibiting.
After looking more into the MOS systems, and the price, I'm probably just going to stick with no RDS. I cringe at the thought of having $1,500 in a Glock.
My mind was made up on the Suarez International slide but I may take a better look at the MOS system.
Do it!

For those with red dots on there pistols where is the best place for the rear sights? In the front or rear of the rmr?

what would be considered "the right price"?
i'd like to get what i paid for it, which isn't really much lower than that price. i got it for $550, and would like to not go much lower than that.
I cannot say the sight in front of the optic is better or worse, since all of mine have the rear sight in the rear. But maybe they pushed the sight further back to get more space to mill in a tight spot. that way they can push the sight furthest rearward vs how tight the sight is to the barrel hood and extractor when it's in front of the sight. Also holster clearance is an issue, but a kydex holster and a dremel go a long way. Of my 4 pistols with RMR's, my Zev D17 doesn't even have a rear sight, it has a screw on panel that covers where it's milled, and the rear sight is dovetailed on that, but with the RMR on, the sight is gone.
im not trying to start a debate or anything, but a BNIB Glock 19 Gen 4 shouldn't be worth any less than you could buy at any venue, whether its Academy or from an online vendor.
i may be in the minority here, but asking $550 for something that has not been shot, holstered or even fondled is fair market value. not to mention that if you were to buy from Academy there's still taxes to pay, the wait time, etc ... and if you were to buy online, there's still shipping (in some cases) and transfer charges.
again, i am not trying to start a heated debate and i agree that $500 for a used FDE Gen 4 G19 is a good deal and even better since you got it for $475, heck, if you didn't snag it up, i would've.
