The g48 MOS is made with a slide cut or whatever they’re called for the red dots . If your red dot doesn’t fit . It’s because it needs a plate beneath it to attach
@@VidadeAP the 43x mos and 48 mos have the RMSc slide cut. If you file down the rear two posts on the slide a 507k will fit direct onto the firearm. The RMSc footprint will allow the shield arms optic, the wasp, and the RMRc to be direct mounted to the firearm.
My EDC pistol is my G48 non MOS. It’s a fantastic lightweight thin easy to control pistol. I did purchase and installed a Hogue Grip on my pistol and I have to say it’s even better since I added the grip!!!
There will be a scs Holosun in the future ! Green dot with recital hopefully . May consider one at that point . My 48 fresh out of the box performs phenomenally.about 4lb trigger pull . Zero malfunctions, shooting seriously tight at 10-15 yards . Zero mods , I’ve put about 550 rounds through it to day . Zero disappointments ! The absolute only thing I’m changing right now is my front sight .
Mine is similar. Only I didn’t ruin the gun by filing those mounting lugs. And I don’t use Shield Arms mags because they don’t work. Gen 1 and gen 2 both failed in mine.
Excellent walk through! Appreciate the overview of your carry gun. I'm currently considering a similar setup with the exception of optic, slide stop/slide release, trigger, and holster.
Great informative video. I myself EDC a Glock G48 non MOS. I just purchased the PSA 15 Micro Dagger mags for my G48. I don’t know much about them and was wandering if you have used these magazines?? I’m a subscriber!! God Bless!!!🇱🇷
After 35 years and thousands of rounds through various Glock pistols, the Glock platform is my go-to defensive carry firearm. I love firearms of many types so not a "fanboy". But for serious purposes my experience has always brought me back to one Glosck or another over the years. NEVER had a mag related malfunction with stock Glock mags. I had high hopes for the S15 mags. On paper, they sound great after all. However, after a couple of mag related malfunctions with the S15 mags I'm a HARD no-go with them. And while the capacity advantage of the Shield mags looks awesome on paper, ANY decrease in reliability of my defensive firearms is unacceptable. I paid way too much for two S15 mags that are now just paperweights. Fine for range use, but who needs expensive mags for range use?? Good for stoppage clearance drills I suppose... 🤷♀ I'd NEVER trust my life to ANY aftermarket Glock mag. Magazines are the heart of any semiautomatic firearm. Factory Glock mags are the most reliable I have ever used in any firearm in well over 45 years of shooting. In my experience, deviating from a proven design for unnecessary capacity considerations is just not worth it.
@@overlandedc im brainstorming a theoretical "if i could only have one gun" build. im looking for something small enough for EDC, high capacity enough for home defense, and night vision capable. I really like my shield, was thinking about a shield plus or a glock 48 with one of these holosuns on it, and a tlr6. at first i was thinking of a glock 19 or m&p 2.0 compact with an rmr and tlr-vir2, but im worried its too big to lug around all day, do you have any input or advice? sorry for the wall of text
My 48mos is similar. I have everything on it with the exception of a new trigger and slide release. Optic on mine is a Riton. I'm also running Truglo night sights. nice EDC. 🤝🏽🔥👍🏼
When I go to T-rex and look at sidecar options for the G48 MOS, I only see XSC as a supported light. Does the TLR-7 work with this config or did they used to support TLR-7 config?
Out of curiosity which Magwell did you purchase ? Because on the Shield Arms website they have the Carry Magwell which is $75 and the Premium Magwell which is $80. They both do the same thing. What is the difference ?
Do the factory mags work with the shield magwell? I can’t find a definitive answer, and your response determines my purchase. So any insight would be appreciated.
You just have to file the two. What he’s not telling you is that the screws have to be filed down as well or they will interfere with extractor function.
I bought the rubberized talon grips and didn't like them, it was no better than factory to me. I bought a roll of stair tread tape from lowes and used the talon grips for a stencil. It works fantastic and is dirt cheap.
I 1st bought the 43 and then the 48. I like the 48 a lot better and find it more comfortable to carry in my phlster holster. And now I can make a 43x or a 43 long.

They are actually reliable right out of the box.
With 19 years action pistol shooting, I've pulled all the triggers out there, and Johnny Glock's G48 trigger is the best out there.
Do you edc a g48
Yes I'm super happy with the combat trigger and the metal vex shoe.

Just picked one of these up, in addition to my Glock 43X & FN509 Venom.
