    Wow, what a sweet shooter, a pleasure and pretty accurate. I did not have my tools to adjust the Viridian and it was close. I was not expecting much difference from the 26 and there was not really. Waiting for my Viridian holster so I can carry on the lease..Very pleased.

    Glad you like it man, I love mine as well. I actually shoot my 26's better than I do the rest of my Glocks as well..

    I need to get the little allen wrench out to adjust the Viridian at the range, I think I am gonna like this. I do have a red laser for it too but the viridian seems to control the barrel flip and does not throw the gun out of balance.

    I could not find one at all, so I put up something for sale or trade and got the Glock and cash in trade off armslist making the 19 $300 to me w 100 rds of ammo, holster and a red laser, that was the only way I could have done it.

    No there are button to push, it is not my carry gun but for lease and truck carry. The one I had for sale here...not sure about the red laser that came w it as I did not mount and look at it...I wanted the daylight visible green laser.

    10/4, I saw that they had released one with an accompanying holster that auto activated and thought it was neat. I remember your laser well... I am pretty sure it was the first thing posted for sale on the forum... haha

    Well took the 19 out to shoot today, ran 2 33rds mags thru it and what a pleasure to shoot. I did take off the Viridian Laser and was shooting stock sights...Very nice shooter. I highly recommend the gen 4 19.

    Just shot my gen3 19 and I am very pleased with it. Great gun and I'm glad y'all recommended it because I wouldn't have even looked at it.

    Now I need a holster and I'm considering getting a rubber wrap for the grip.

    Well I treir to put a laserlyte replacement sight on today, it would not adjust so i took it off. RMA already done and packaged up to return. went to put my plactic rear sight back on and the metal clip cam off...LOL oh well, over to jimmy's to have another put on. The gun came w another laserlyte that fit on the rail, so we will see, probably will get another guide rod Lasermax for it like my 26.

    If you dont have any luck finding any do yourself a favor and check out the truglo tfo's. I had them on a couple of my glocks in the past and just recently put another pair on a 26 i just acquired.. you wont be disappointed...

    The guy's name is James. He does more than just XD's. You mail your slide in(no restrictions) and he installs them for free as long as you pay for the shipping and sights. I haven't used him yet myself. But the guys at XDtalk speak very highly of him. He's located in Trussville, AL.

    The TFO's have trituim AND fiber optic, therefore they glow both day and night.. best of both worlds imo
