I am really trying hard not to go out and buy this.

It has rear sights .

As mentioned above they have to be removed when installing the optic unlike most other guns in this category.

My bad did not see that post.

If you shoot it in the dark or at twilight will it look like this?

Extra points for "Logan's Run" reference.

Oh, and, Ankh...

It does come with the platform for the rear adj. sights. It reads that there is no lining up the front sight. It reads just put the dot where you want it and shoot. You don't have to line the front sight up with the dot. That would make for very quick target acquisition. I do a lot of plate shooting and trying to realign sights up after a shot from a 1911 isn't easy to do quickly. I am getting faster but the price of 45 ammo is not cheap so frequent routine practice has to be limited. The 9mm would allow me to get more practice in. I just think being able to rip down the line very quick would make shooting on that range would be fun. I like the look of the gun. It's aggressive looking and doesn't just look like a chunk of plastic with the out line of a gun. There is nothing wrong with a little flare on a gun and it also serves a purpose. Quicker slide movement being one of the benefits. I am not sure the barrel is ported or not so the star wars blaster is a bit dramatic. It really boils down to how it feels in the hands. If it feels good then that's half the battle of finding a handgun. Looks are nice but feel comes first. If it feels like a brick then it's a no go. Iv'e really tried to give Glock a fair shot but it just doesn't feel good in my hands. I guess I'm just use to the slim grips on a 1911 and it just feels so different it's hard for me to go with it.

Glocks aren't designed to look flashy, they are designed to function.

Always in good taste....

You gotta make 'em flashy.

That's not you average service Glock. LOL The Walther is around 850. That gun would run ya what a dressed out AR15 would go for. Also they aren't built to be flashy but it should feel good in the hands. That's a major hurdle there.

It's going to hurt alot saying this, but.................. I'd rather buy a Glock if purchasing just on looks alone.

There, I said it.
