Obviously not a gloch guy, I own some because anybody with a bunch of handguns should , just like having a Colt SAA or a S&W snubby.
They're just needed in a pistol collection.

This DR 920 Elite is everything a gloch should be, except the trigger still sucks (put a Timney in, it the best glock style trigger I've used to date)
The 1911/low angle grip adapter points the gun like a 1911 with an arched MSH, maybe a little higher but great in comparison.
Great metal night sights, lightened slide, grip change angles not just size.

I put a holosun 407c on mine, it direct mounts. Sights are high enough to use in lower 1/3 of the Holosun window.
A 15lbs recoil spring helps me get the dot back on target quicker.
I've shot several X ring groups with it at 25 yds 1 1/2 to 2". Mine shoots really well.
It hasn't had any reliability issues to date Maybe 2K through it so far.
No signs of wear on the finish external or internal yet.

If you're a Glock guy and put sights on, buy the mos or mill slides for direct mount, have grips mod's done.
Mill slide to lighten it etc etc
You'll be money ahead buying the Shadow system
I like mine.

Bad pixs but gotta put one in either way! or it ain't so!

I run a Drills and Skills night at our indoor range a couple nights a month during the winter.
It helps folks with a little bit of "from the Holster work" without being outside in the winter weather.

I ran the DR last night and it did everything I asked it to do.
Squirted a couple shots out of the fifty we shot.
My fault not the gun.
Training for me is pushing past what I know I can do
Working to decrease time and increase accuracy.

We did everything from cover last night with EDC carry gear.

Still find real enjoyment with this gun.
Not usually something I say about a plastic fantastic.
