Anyone have pictures of an RX without the romeo 1 on it? I looked online to see if they have a cover plate to cover milled out spot but can't find one. No cover plate. |

No cover plate. What ZacSquatch said. That's the one disappointment I have with the RX this far. So I got a regular FS 9mm exchange kit from QuanticoTactical last week. Red dots on a handgun is brand new to me so I wanted to be able to shoot an iron sighted like model for apples to apples comparisons. |

The new X5 comes with a cover plate so you can add a SIG Romeo if you want. Much like the S&W core models

If red dot on a handgun doesn't end up being my cup of tea at least I'll be able to switch it to a "normal" 320 which I already know I love. |

The RX is cut out only for the Romeo 1, and the X5 plate goes all the way to the back of the slide and includes a rear sight on it. |

Yeah I saw the video from today's SHOT range day. Seems odd to me they decided on the X5 you have to choose irons OR red dot, but with no provision for a rear sight AND a red dot |

My biggest concern is about the Romeo 1 itself, is it durable? Will it last?
