I just read on another Forum that Glock was coming out with a optics ready pistol (Leupold Deltapoint Pro). Anyone else read or heard about this?

right after the single stack glock and carbine.

You're probably right, but I hope not. I attended the Glock Armorer Course earlier this year and the Instructor said that the single stack 9mm was coming. I can't say that I've ever heard anything more than wishful thinking about the Glock carbine.

I don't think the numbers of people that would actually buy one justifies the cost of developing a new model.

They will need to allow for various optics.

People are willing to spend close to the price of a complete Glock for a stripped Atom slide.

Also S&W thought it was worth it.

But I don't see Glock being that forward thinking.

How many has S&W sold? How many slides has Atom? Ive yet to see a RDS on a handgun outside of action shooting sports. How many open class shooters uses Glock for their open guns?

I can see them doing an optics ready package for a RMR, but not a Delta Point. The Delta Point, just isn't a popular enough optic to base a line of pistols on.

You haven't been paying attention, then.

Special Ops units overseas are using them.

As for the Optics-ready Glocks - it was talked about during SHOT 2014....they will be featured at SHOT 2015.....that comes from a person in the know at Glock.

How many guns is that? The first year Ruger sold the LCP they sold 400,000. How many optic ready Glocks would they really sell? Does a single large police force issue or even allow handguns with RDS?

What development cost? They just program the CNC machine to mill the mounting surface after it mills the rear sight dovetail. Just like adding a factory threaded barrel, there is no real cost or development involved.
