Here it is. I shot it Saturday. Runs like a sewing machine. Can't wait to get it in the woods.

Very nice, I do like the two tone look. I bought a complete G40 but did the full MCARBO spring and polish - it is very nice. Got it late last year and missed a doe so I added a reflex for this year plus more trigger time should help me. Good luck

Related also to your other thread, my G40 is in the queue this year. I have taken a hog with it but missed the only doe I have shot at it with - thus I added the reflex and it helps my aging eyes. May even get first up status...I agree Glock nailed it with the big 10

Which sight did you go with? I built another .357 and plan on putting some type of optic sight on it.

I tried a vortex razor previously and did not really like it (not downing them just personal preference) so sold it. This time I did a little more research and tried the much cheaper Burris Fast Fire III. I do like it a lot on the Glock and the controls are very easy to manipulate.

I will look into it. I have so many in rotation that this one may set out 2021 season.
