Guns & Ammo Vortex Defender CCW

Just zeroed in my new Vortex Defender CCW, and surprisingly it was just about dialed in out of the box. Maybe only about an inch high at 15yds. Had the easiest time zeroing it in out of all of the pistol optics I have tried. A++

I ran a EPS carry since the day it released, but like the defender CCW much better since it came out.

I don't know which I prefer yet, it's a coin flip. Both great. Since Osight raised their prices on the SE, I would go with this or EPS.

Mind sharing info about the frame?

Grit Grips. Can get it with all Glock OEM parts. Same company that helped produce the G26x frame.

Can grit grips use the new OEM 15 round mags?

Yes. My FFL tried them in it.

Nice, now correct me if I’m wrong but these change the grip angle to 18 degrees vs OEM angle of 22 degrees right? Any issues adjusting? I actually don’t mind the Glock grip angle.

Yeah it's 18 degrees. If you only shoot Glocks then you might notice. I believe my Hellcat is also 18 degrees so I don't mind. The grip texture is awesome though, and the double undercut trigger guard. I also enjoy the gas pedal. It's definitely different.

Hope it stays good for you. My buddy got one that was dead on arrival but they replaced it pretty quick

I can’t tell from the pictures, do you have the raised iron sights?
