I would like to give an opinion on the 407k but unfortunately I haven’t received the one I ordered 2 months ago.
Yeah, they are still kinda new to the market. I have heard that the folks that do have them, got in on some early releases intended for pros to beta test them in the real world. Not sure if that's fact or they are not able to get them produced yet, but that is what I heard.
I have a 407C on my 2.0 Compact M&P and I think it's going to work out fine for me. I'm still working on getting some time with it. When it was gone for 4 weeks or so getting the slide milled and sights added, etc, I shot my Shield with irons a LOT. And right now I actually shoot that one better than my Compact.
I'm pretty sure it's just that I need time to get used to the dot vs irons but time will tell.
Either I will get used to the dot and put the 407K on my Shield or I will go back to irons on my Compact. Right now I'd say it's a 90% chance I will stay with the red dot. I'm old and my vision is not great and more importantly I struggle with front sight focus vs target focus.
Everything I have been taught in life is to keep your eyes on the target. Except in shooting.
I will say this; I'm not afraid to run a Holosun on any of my firearms. Maybe it's not as good as Trijicon, maybe it is. But it is good enough for me.

Yeah they kept pushing back the eta on me too. I canceled the order and bought a Trijicon rmr.Get used to waiting. I ordered my 507k on 5/14/20 and just got an update that it will not ship until 9/17/20.
How did your coworker mount it on the G48?I have a 507K and a coworker has one on a G48. So far we both like them.

isnt the rmr larger?

I didn't know they were still hard to get. Our LGS posted 4 days ago on FB that he had received a big shipment of them.
Yes. Not a ton bigger looking at the specs, but quite a bit when actually side by side
Sent it off to some place in Texas and had the slide milled. Maple Leaf firearms or something like that.

My old eyes aren't the same either, so if you feel it's bright enough, that says a lot!
I know Suarez does milling and has an rmr mounting plate for the 43/43x/48. I don’t think it’s that bad but that’s just my opinion.
