    Have decided to get an optics ready Shadow 2.
    Have spoken to someone that had a P320 X5 and said they had to spend more money to get it too shoot via new trigger and other parts.
    Would end up costing more than the Shadow 2 in the end.
    Besides I love CZ pistols.

    Think I will go RMR due to battery life, ease of brightness adjustments and height.
    I haven't fully decided on pistol yet.
    I shot a P10c overseas and loved it.
    A P10F may be the go if I can get one in myself or someone like gunsnz bring them in.

    Shot a Shadow 2 with Holosun 507C last week, was mightily impressed. The 32MOA round reticle with 2 MOA dot option meant if you can't see the dot initially, chances are you can see part of the round reticle -> quicker to find the dot.

    It would be good to look at or try some combos but unfortunately due to where I live and lack of exposure to new and decent gear it could be trial by error for me.
    I have the gun narrowed down to 2 and sights could be one of many.
    Which may depend on what mounting plates are available.
    I might wait till the I have shot the 2 island matches later this year and pester some PO guys to see what they are using.

    If you can make the steel challenge South islands, the guys from Delta Mike will be there. I'm hoping they will bring a bit of kit to play with.

    From my Open experience, I’d go for something with bigger glass than an RMR if possible, like an RTS2, but don’t know how they’ve stood up to the slide mounting so far.
    Bigger glass helps you track the dot between shots.

    Also, shit it’s fun slowly piecing together who’s who on here. I’ve been here a while but not really an active participant. I think @Kscott’s doing alright in PO already. And @Ozzy is never ‘short’ of an opinion...
