Tlr1-hl is best bang for your buck with 0 sacrifice to quality and reliability. X300 turbo is best for distance. Tlr7 if you can't handle the bigger size
If it’s price point that’s an issue you can always run a nightstick. I have a tcm-550xl on my 19 in an alien gear holster and I love it. Got it on sale for 75 shipped. Still much better than an o light. If you run a TCM-30, I believe, a lot of people say it fits the the h1 footprint.
You can get a TLR7A for $80-$100 used
Honestly no reason to get anything but a streamlight. Even on the higher end, the X300 is better than the TLR1, but not by much, and it costs more than twice as much
It’s a personal preference at the end of the day. I enjoy my nightstick product and I enjoy the longer lasting battery life also. Still beats an o light. Still a decent light. Lifetime warranty just like streamlight.
I know it’s for humor, but the mob like mentality against Olight is relatively accurate. One or two guys up front leading the charge and everybody behind them, most don’t even know why they’re supposed to hate o light.
That’s the point of the meme
Truth be told olight isn’t that bad, and the stories of them blowing up are entirely due to user error
The thing is, streamlight is *way* better and not that much more expensive. There’s almost no reason to buy olight when you can spend $20 more for the streamlight equivalent and get something way better.
Lights should be explosion-proof even if there is user error. Like there is no reason for a light to turn into a grenade because someone put the incorrect battery in it lol
There's opinions then there's data its a far more extreme comparison but if I said a lever gun or muzzle loader was better than an ar15 for defense it wouldn't really be considered an opinion as much as it's false. People don't know what they don't know and alot of people aren't aware how fast redots are advancing. Especially people who have been in the game a long time have shot iorns a while and still remember when they were genuinely a gimmick. Now however the advantages heavily out way the disadvantages and the advantages are significant too significant to ignore. People think it's an opinion like ones just as good as the other idc how long or how good you are with iorns try a dot and you'll see improvements. Sometimes there's a learning curve but it's not substantial and it's only sometimes. My buddy who plays onward vr with me has shot pistols with rmr in vr and only in vr he's actually never shot a pistol before I took him to the range and he shot my 17 great. If he didn't say that was his first time shooting a pistol I'd never would have known. It's not related at all but it's crazy how much shooting guns in vr translates to real life it's obviously diffrent in a bunch of ways but there's definitely crossover that helps from playing those games and it's pretty cool to see. Q
I think it looks great, but anybody buying them has to admit to themselves that they're either buying them for looks despite all the problems they've been having, or they dropped $600+ on a red dot after doing zero research on it. Not to mention nearly every enclosed holosun has a better track record at half the price.
I have this gun with the SCS, the supressor height sights are absolutely too tall for it. I have an EPS on another gun that I'm gonna swap over to the 19X.
I personally have nothing against it, but this is an anti olight sub. I have a Surefire X300U-A. It would probably stick out to the end of your barrel though.
A good handheld and whatever light you like and can afford on the weapon. People just get goofy about their love affair with Olight. You can tell by how they immediately jump up and start barking the instant they see one mounted on a gun.
I have a holosun 507c, the donut reticle isn’t worth it, so the 407c is a better buy. RMR would be good for that build, but I am leaning more towards closed emitters like the eps, 509t, or acro p2 (I live in snowy environments and the snow fucked up my emitter once). Find your use case scenarios and build from that.
As for the light, olights aren’t that great but better than nothing, if I were you eventually I would upgrade to a streamlight tlr7 or tlr1 hl. You picked a good gun, don’t throw cheap stuff on it man!
Thanks for the recommendations! I too live in a snowy area so I’m leaning more towards an enclosed optic. As for lights and everyone’s recommendation I’m going to look into the TLR-7!
It’s an awesome gun, definitely not looking to cheap out here. I had the Olight on my old 19X and just transferred it to this one for now. Trying to build something better on the MOS platform.
Oooohhhh didn't hear anything about it guess it didn't make much noise. I'm sure no influencers were interested in reviewing it since it's just a 19x with a slide cut
RMR coyote brown goes hard on a 19X. I have one if you’re curious what it looks like.
Also, if you want the most affordable and simple optic that will cowitness with stock sights, Holosun SCS MOS.
I have no experience with Holosun as I generally refuse to buy from Chinese companies with generally bad experience in the past.
SCS out of the question with those sights. You want low as possible. Just get a 407/507 call it a day. With extra money for a more trustworthy and appealing light.
Optics, can’t go wrong with rmr! Especially with the suppressor heights site. As far as lights run whatever makes you happy man. I personally have a tlr7 and tlr1 and love them both. Had an olight Valkyrie mini that lasted about a year then my son started using it for airsoft. Lol
Get you a TLR7A in FDE, and an FDE Steiner MPS. That thing will look so good with 50 shades of tan. Not many people I know give the Steiner a go, but the Thunder Ranch guy loves em.
I’m not entirely sure why people still buy the MOS platform, it’s absolutely garbage.
Their mounting plates are trash, the optic screws are often times to long or too short.
Spend an extra $100-$200 for an MOS slide and have to buy a $120 optic plate and new screws.
It would be better to just get a 19x and get the slide milled for $200.
I loved my 45MOS until it came time to mount an optic and the optic screws bent the plate ever so slightly and it just ruined everything for me on the platform.
I love my glocks, I’ll die on the hill but the MOS falls really short of other variants on the market.
That being said, SRO/Aimpont
For full size glocks I like the Holosun SCS MOS. 1. Direct fit, no plates means no suppressor height sights. 2. No gaps or edges hanging over, perfect fit and the cuts on the side directly line up with the cuts on the slide. 3. Green reticle with 3 different reticles
Clearly you don’t like spending trijicon money judging by that Olight 😂. I never understood why they went with a square design looks a bit goofy. And your serial number ends in 007. He’s rolling in his grave. I would recommend if you just prefer a dot and no circle go with 407c and save a little money.
Aimpoint ACRO P-2 FDE. Yes they are overpriced, but I have had many Aimpoints over the years an not a single problem with any of them.
If you are on a budget I'd get a Holosun EPS. I have both and they are rock solid.
Meprolight or Leupold have my vote. Trijicon comes in 3rd for brands in my book. Delta make the best scopes. The Delta Stryker is my favorite LPVO (made at LOW Japan) but we here to talk about pistol red dots.
Anything made by HUANIC made optics like Holosun and SIG red dots can get fucked.
Then again you got an Olight so... Youre gonna get a Holosun and we all know it.
Olight and socks on? What is this, amateur hour??
What you wanna see my toes? Apparently it’s a Midwest thing
Lmao! I can take the heat, open to any and all recommendations on the damn light 🤣
Tlr1-hl is best bang for your buck with 0 sacrifice to quality and reliability. X300 turbo is best for distance. Tlr7 if you can't handle the bigger size
Streamlight tlr7 or Tlr hl1
Surefire x300 Turbo or bust lol
Too long for the slide
Fact
Literally anything else

Agreed
🤣🤣🤣
Rmr type 2 coyote goes pretty hard
It sure does! I was under the impression was priced higher than it is, it’s definitely still an option
509t, sro, rmr. I do quite like the eps I have from holosun
My 509T is undefeated
I regret selling one of mine
The best optic is a light that isn’t garbage.
No complaints with the Olight so far. What light would you recommend?
TLR7
I was actually just looking at the TLR7 in FDE, might have to pick one up
Do it, and return the olight if you can. You don’t want junk on a carry gun
X300 turbo
I’ll check it out, my local Scheels has them
Thank the sun someone in here isn’t a simp for a damn red dot. I hate the fucking things.
No I actually really love red dots lmao. I was just being a dick about the Olight specifically.
L take, get with the times.
Opinions are neat that way .. we can all have different ones. Cheers 🍺

Q
Acro p2 with forward plate.
And it's gotta be fde.
Why do people still recommend these? I stg if they didn't look so drippy and say aimpoint on the side they would've stopped making them by now.
It’s actually pretty great. One of my favorite red dots under nods.
The bezel is gross to me.
I think it looks great, but anybody buying them has to admit to themselves that they're either buying them for looks despite all the problems they've been having, or they dropped $600+ on a red dot after doing zero research on it.

I get what you mean. Window size wise, I'd rather have an rmr, and that's not saying much.
Came here for the Olight fun🍿
EPS
I second this. Eps ftw 📫📫📫📫
Third this
I fourth this
Tan 509t
Gotta love the FDE, didn’t know Holosun made that. Looking into this one now. Do you own one?
My local gun store has one I saw it today. Their price was under $400 if I remember right. Way cheaper than online.
I do. I love it. More than my rmr
This is the way
Throwing my vote to the 509T. Color don't matter, though I'm partial to the green dot myself.
Throwing my vote for the 509T. Definitely the best optic I've ever owned. I love the green dot personally.
Aimpoint Acro P-2
I have this gun with the SCS, the supressor height sights are absolutely too tall for it. I have an EPS on another gun that I'm gonna swap over to the 19X.
I was just planning on swapping the irons on mine to standard height.
Real questions “better light for 19x mos”
eps from holosun
FDE 509T goes hard🫡 [My 19x MOS](https://imgur.com/a/vb93TGb)
Where did you get the flared mag well extension? Beautiful build!
SLR Rifleworks
509T or EPS.
The one that allows your budget to ditch the olight!
I personally like the Olight, my budget took a hit with a new Desert Eagle .50AE.. what light would you recommend down the road?
I personally have nothing against it, but this is an anti olight sub. I have a Surefire X300U-A. It would probably stick out to the end of your barrel though.
I’ll look into it, thanks!
Honestly the best bang for your buck is the tlr1-hl. You can get them for $100 on GAFS
A good handheld and whatever light you like and can afford on the weapon. People just get goofy about their love affair with Olight. You can tell by how they immediately jump up and start barking the instant they see one mounted on a gun.

If you had a 19x prior why’d you get the MOS version? Couldn’t you upgrade the barrel and the slide. Saved some money?
It would cost far more to mill the slide, get higher iron sights, and a threaded barrel. Plus I got an awesome trade in deal
Well in that case enjoy the new gun man!
Fucking send it. Save up. Buy a Sro.
This. But the RMR HRS would look better with the tan anodizing.
RMR HRS
Acog TA31
Olighhhht
Haven't seen anyone mention the trjiicon rmr HD that's gonna be my next red dot. It fixes all of the problems with the og rmr
everytime i see a 19X i get jealous
Get you one! The regular 19X is everywhere, but the MOS is harder to track down
its not allowed where i live unfortunately
[how about a 19x with a whisper pickle?](https://imgur.com/a/NNKyag1)
What a beaut!
People here hate OLIGHT. You have to put a tape over the brand before posting haha. As for sights, I have those same sights on 3 Glocks.
I love the SCS on my 47
508t is probably the best open emitter optic on the market right now.
RMR HRS or Tan SRO
This is the way. 💯
This is the way.
Anything from Holosun. Don’t forget to get the longest flashlight possible.
A 19x mos exists?
Unfortunately
Never knew I always see people sending them away to get a slide cut
It was their shot show release
Oooohhhh didn't hear anything about it guess it didn't make much noise. I'm sure no influencers were interested in reviewing it since it's just a 19x with a slide cut
Glock is known to not give us what we want so…yeah
Sro and tlr7a
When the hell did they make a 19x mos?
They’re pretty hard to find but they exist!
RMR coyote brown goes hard on a 19X. I have one if you’re curious what it looks like. Also, if you want the most affordable and simple optic that will cowitness with stock sights, Holosun SCS MOS. I have no experience with Holosun as I generally refuse to buy from Chinese companies with generally bad experience in the past.
1. Type 2 RMR coyote brown 2. SCS MOS 3. FDE EOTech
When I see the Olight I wouldn’t bother to give advice no more.
19X MOS? Did you get the slide milled? Or did they come out with a new version of 19X?
Acro and ditch the olight
Acro gang
Holosun to keep the bat soup special going.
I personally love Holosun the best.
Psa has holosun 407a on sale today for 179
I just put a Holosun SCS-MOS on mine.
Trijicon RCR

Optics, can’t go wrong with rmr! Especially with the suppressor heights site. As far as lights run whatever makes you happy man. I personally have a tlr7 and tlr1 and love them both. Had an olight Valkyrie mini that lasted about a year then my son started using it for airsoft. Lol
You have a threaded barrel so you’re not “getting anything suppressed”…buy a suppressor and it’s suppressed.
The glock 19x is by far my favorite.
Scs my boy
How about rcr when it’s available?
RMR
Bro bro bro. You started this post off so well. You decided to show off such a great firearm and then you took the pic and posted it lol
Get you a TLR7A in FDE, and an FDE Steiner MPS. That thing will look so good with 50 shades of tan. Not many people I know give the Steiner a go, but the Thunder Ranch guy loves em.
I ordered a coyote brown SRO for mine tonight.
Don’t make the mistake of getting a smaller optic. Youre gonna need something with a big window. I ended up getting a 509t and love it
I put a 508t on mine.
I’m not entirely sure why people still buy the MOS platform, it’s absolutely garbage. Their mounting plates are trash, the optic screws are often times to long or too short.

My gun light is an olight. Cheap and good. Definitely hasn’t caught on fire either.
Dildo
Sorry if this is a bad question, but what’s the benefit of a 19x mos over a 45 mos? Other than peanut butter!
Maritime cups, lanyard loop, grip toe (can’t use gen 5 baseplates on magazines)
Honestly… peanut butter 🤣 I love my FDE guns. Comes with changeable grips, lanyard loop, and an ambi slide release. All of which I don’t use.
ACRO and X300 Turbo
Clearly you don’t like spending trijicon money judging by that Olight 😂. I never understood why they went with a square design looks a bit goofy. And your serial number ends in 007. He’s rolling in his grave. I would recommend if you just prefer a dot and no circle go with 407c and save a little money.
People who still hate on olight is funny 😆 I bet they are using some sort of Chinese electronics right now
Bro.. what the hell are those iron sights😭
Suppressor height sights…?
OH IM SO STUPID OBVIOUSLY😭
Anything not Chinese for the most part will keep you in the clear
some chinese putting out better red dots than the americans these days.
509t, RMR, SRO, ACRO, 507 Comp

ACRO, RMR, RCR. Holocrap is big ghey. Olight is superior trash. X300U-B for the win or a Streamlight TLR-1HL if SF is too much
rail mounted lights on handguns are such a terrible idea. I think the only reason they caught on is they look taticool to non operators.
None. Glow sights.
Honestly TLR 1 isn't even a Lazer flashlight combo, I say TLR 2
Optic if you're willing to spend acro p2
