Frequently Asked Questions

What are the main out-of-the-box issues with the PSA Dagger?

The PSA Dagger commonly exhibits two main out-of-the-box issues: a noticeably undersized rear sight dovetail, making sight installation difficult, and significant incompatibility with most standard Glock holsters, often resulting in a lack of retention.

Why doesn't the PSA Dagger fit most Glock holsters?

The PSA Dagger's lower accessory rail is positioned significantly lower than a Glock 19's. This dimensional difference, even by a few millimeters, prevents many holsters, especially those that index off a weapon-mounted light, from properly retaining the firearm.

Can you install aftermarket sights on a PSA Dagger?

Installing aftermarket sights on a PSA Dagger can be challenging because the rear sight dovetail is often undersized. This can make removing the factory sight and fitting a new one very difficult, sometimes requiring significant force or modification.

Are there any holsters that work with the PSA Dagger?

Yes, while many Glock holsters do not work, some specific holsters designed for Glock 19s, like a K Rounds holster shown in the video, can fit the PSA Dagger. However, compatibility is not guaranteed, and many common brands will not retain the firearm properly.
