Is the RXM truly as good (or better) than the G19? (Page 2 of 2)

I put in a steel guide rod assembly, but I do that with all my Glocks. I changed the grip to black. Not paying $300+ for an "upgrade" (Sharp Bros). I might get a threaded barrel for it later. But I will also likely buy a 2nd RXM and grab the threaded barrel version. |

Just wondering what you guys have done to yours Thanks I cleaned it, attached an RMR, zeroed it, then shot it a lot with every type of ammo I have. Flawless as expected. Called it good for carry there. |

The Glock bois get so upset that they have to make claims that the RXM isn't better than the Glock because the Glock has been around for 40 years and fired a billion rounds. Calm down little lady, nobody is going to tie you down and shove a RXM up your butt. But it's good to have choices. But on paper, I can see why Glock bois get upset. Better stock sights. Better optic cut. Interchangeable grip frames leads to more customization options without sending your frame out (FFL issues). Much cheaper ($380 vs $550-700 for the MOS version) The Glock does have a better magazine release  (Gen4 and Gen5).

All of the stuff than makes the RxM better was available on the aftermarket except the slide with a multitude of optics mounting options. People had been doing the same stuff for years, yet glock continues to make and sell pistols that don't have up to date features. Notice I added the sell part, because they DO sell...for now. I truly hope the company can be on the forefront of innovation in an area that doesn't involve collecting loads from large stallion cocks in the near future. |
