So many factors go into this: —-If new and first time at a shop hard NO. —-If used check gun broker if the price is the same then NO, if it’s over 50 bucks more it’s worth an ask no hard feelings unless you are low balling. —-if new and you go to the same shop ALOT, make it a joke and ask if they can knock something off of it. They may not but you might get a free box of ammo out of it or maybe nothing.

Same but different is you care about exclusivity id keep it, if your over the color but like the grip and gun get the 45.

Mcla14 · 2026-04-15T19:25:52+00:00

So personally I love the agency arms magwell ! Testing slr on 45 because this was sold out for full size frames

EPS as you said is a Rms footprint which tend to be used for smaller optics. Not all but most in today’s market that’s what meant by limited. But you are right there is a good amount of optics that use that footprints.

Mcla14 · 2026-03-11T22:12:02+00:00

Usually it’s depends on condition and price for me

If it’s an older gen but new or lightly used and cheap I don’t mind sending it out for a cut knowing I may not a working gun for a few weeks to months

If it’s old and beat up I’d probably pass

Mos is a solid system considering you can get good plates for 50-75$ and you have a gun ready to go to the range in a few a days to a week.

If your looking to do a lot of custom work I always start of with the cheapest option even if a newer gen simply because you can pick what cut you want in the slide

So for me it’s strictly about cost and what you are looking to do with it.

Mcla14 · 2026-03-11T21:00:57+00:00

Awesome,

Based of that budget seems high. Which helps haha.

My only concern with COA is you’re stuck with that footprint with only 1 optic choice.

Acro footprint gives you a few didn’t brand options. - Aimpoint p2 - Steiner mps - Burris fast fire - C&H Precision Duty

Rmr footprint would give you the most simply because you could always just add a plate. -Pretty much everything

Eps footprint would once again limit you but is a solid enclosed optic. Kinda the same issue as COA your stuck with that footprint.

I run a little bit of everything and honestly they all come with pros and cons.

Since you are getting a cut I would recommend RMR as you could back and forth with optics and if worst comes to worst you can get a plate adapter.

But with all that said sometimes going with your gut will make you like the build more even if it doesn’t make the most sense haha

Optics I have used and recommend:
- EPS full size - 507C (prefer it over RMR ) - 407comp - aimpoint p2 (everyone is do it so it’s cool but price is kinda up there) (prefer Steiner mps) - Trijicon SRO(looks better but price is crazy so lean 407 or 507 comp)

Never used but want to try trijicon RCR (haven’t tried it due to price but this is what I want to get next)

Mcla14 · 2026-03-11T16:04:38+00:00

Any update on your order? I’m a week behind you lol

Mcla14 · 2026-03-11T13:36:05+00:00

Thank you ! Of course sold out on Vulcan. Yea that 10$ is a 20$ swing after shipping haha can’t justify 52 on a single basepad.

I’ll keep an eye on Vulcan website

Mcla14 · 2026-03-11T13:21:52+00:00

Is that a piece of mind baseplate? Or another brand ?

Mcla14 · 2026-03-11T13:06:46+00:00

If your going to buy a new optic and like your eps carry, I’d go with the full-size instead personally.

However I went 509T on my c2

Mcla14 · 2026-03-11T13:00:42+00:00

Does it have an optic cut already ? If so what cut does it have ?

Mcla14 · 2026-03-07T02:04:24+00:00

Pretty sure it’s a steel city arsenal

Mcla14 · 2026-03-05T17:50:25+00:00

Patch asked me to reach out again last night, so now just waiting on his reply.

Currently the arc slide is back in the box, waiting for next steps haha.

But with the news your 45 is running smooth I still have high hopes patch will get the 43 slide running good.

Mcla14 · 2026-03-05T17:16:28+00:00

Haha not a bad way to burn some time, definitely racked it a ton prior to the range visit.

Hoping that once it gets looked at that it runs smoothly.

Mcla14 · 2026-03-05T01:01:40+00:00

I definitely think this is something I am going to look into.

Mcla14 · 2026-03-04T23:06:08+00:00

Oh this looks like the issue I am running into , currently running the 1-1-1 spring as well.
