My man Pec opined that you could build a Roland Special for much cheaper with parts substitutions, and that led me down a rabbit hole that I finally came out of today. The gun is built, video is done, and now I just have to test it. For those of you who are curious, here's the parts list, with links. Please note that I dug up every discount I could to make this happen. For any parts on F3 Tactical, make sure you use code GRAYDOG for 10% off, that'll help a lot.
Anyway, the list:
Palmetto State Armory Dagger Compact Complete Frame $99.99
DTT "Ohio" Complete Slide Kit $233.64 (in stock status varies)
Holosun 407c $235.00 (approximately if you use my discount code)
Fenix GL19R $99.95 (use ID.ME to get a discount down to $69.95)
Strike Industries Micro Threaded Comp Quad $65.99
Continuous Precision Sights $69.95
Magwell for PSA Dagger Compact $26.95
Transfer fee for the PSA Frame: $22.00
When I add it all up, it took me right around $836.95 to put this gun together.
If you don't want to wait for the DTT slide to come back into stock, the regular PSA Dagger would be a good start for a build. That said, the PSA dagger that has the RMR cut, suppressor height sights, and a threaded barrel is $419.99 right now. You'd save cash on the CP sights, so it may actually be a wash.
As of this writing, please note that I have yet to even fire the gun. It may not even go bang, so we'll all have to stay tuned. Wish me luck at the range this week, because I may need it...
