I've now entered the world of handgun hunting...well not yet, but I will this coming season. Picked up a G40 MOS with a Zev Tech trigger from a local pawn shop for $500. Within a week I had a Trijicon RMR on it and dialed in at 50yds.

snipr1, Welcome to the forum and congrats with that beautiful G-40. It should serve your hunting needs well.
Best regards! :D
Nice G40 and welcome to the forum. 8)
Nice! What did it have on it before you put the Trijicon on it?
Good choice. They are good shooters for sure.

It just had the factory sights. It comes with an adjustable rear sight.
$500?? Nice find. Congratulations. I keep looking at the G40 in the case, it keeps calling my name...
That was a nice score.

It's good to know the right people in the gun sales business! I'd been looking for a G40 and got lucky. The trigger job was just a bonus.

The red dot is a much better choice. How do you like the Trijicon? I need something for one of my AR's as I sent the EOTech back and got a refund. It was my 2nd one and was flakey.
Great gun and an outstanding sight. I put a LW drop in threaded barrel in mine and it shoots the 200 grain PB WFN from a MiHec mould with authority and accuracy. Enjoy!

Don't get me started on EoTech. None of mine will hold zero.
I like the Trijicon RMR so far. I don't care for Trijicon scopes, but their red dots seem to be above average. If I had to put a red dot on my AR today, and my budget was in the range of the RMR, I would go with an Aimpoint, and most likely one of their micro's. I've had really good experience with Aimpoint red dots and they hold up really well.
And one of my AR's does have an Aimpoint PRO on it and it is awesome. Just always looking for alternatives.
Nice I hope to have one by November to compliment my Glock 20.

Get one. You'll love it. Installed a ghost pro on mine and put on ameriglo defoor tactical sights. Shoots great. Also did a digi camo on it with gun Kote.
