Just got back from the range with my first shots with the Dagger. I put 100 rounds down range with no problems. It was just as accurate as my Glock 19 and I found the trigger just fine. I would definitely recommend this for the price.
They able to offer the Dagger at such a good price, because the consumer purchases straight from the manufacturer …. No distributor.. no dealer I actually have $298 in a optic cut Dagger with steel co-wittiness sights … unbelievable deal
Ran the first 250rds through mine. Before I ever shot it I changed out the disconnect with a ghost 3.5 and did a full Wolf match spring kit. I polished the surfaces as well. Was 100% reliable and hit exactly to point of aim. Can't ask for more. Ergonomics are superb.
I'm really impressed with the Dagger offerings. The latest one has everything you would want. RMR slide, co witness sights, combat cuts and being supressor ready for only $379 might make me pull the trigger.
I love my dagger. Has shot well with pmag, glock and ets mags. Not a fan of striker fired, so I was surprised at how much I liked it. Feels really good in my hands.
Appears US can produce an inexpensive, effective pistol. $299; I'm out of my mind🤓👍😎 Well done article. Always try to read and watch to be better informed . Thanks as usual.👍😎
Excellent review. Devoid of extreme, non objective opinions, made straight foreward presentation of features and comparisons with Glock 19. Refreshing not to be treated as a gun illiterate. Also appreciate not being subjected to non-descriptive four letter words. Thanks.
I got mine when it was a marathon yo get 1. I stuck night sights on it. Im waiting for free time to go work her out! Good job on the channel. Long time follower. Appreciate your info

Looking forward to your follow-on thoughts. Just bought the FDE with Venom for the St. Patty's deal. I'm not really a Glock guy (and should've bought another Canik probably lol), but figured in today's landscape having a Gen3 compatible platform was wise... and I love supporting PSA!
I got the dagger to frame threaded barrel holosun 507c all for $400 I cant believe the price or the quality Just waiting for the trigger on this 80% build and i will take it to range
I was finally able to order one. $350 and in total $389 with tax. I live in Michigan, so I'm also expecting a $60 transfer fee tax. So the total should be around $450. Still cheaper than a regular glock. And also cheaper than the p80 glock 19's. And also, the custol complete slides are like $189 on PSA. That's an awesome price. Threader barrel, and rmr cuts. Can't beat this.
I have not had good experience with the magpuls in my glock 19 gen 5, two mags I have had loaded for like 2 years had back to back the same issue where the follower got stuck after only 2 or 3 rounds, really weird it happened back to back but my glock oem mags worked fine with the same ammo and period of time
Buy a dagger instead of a Taurus, no way. Buy both. My Taurus is problem free for several years. It’s not the price, it’s the reliability and your ability to use the firearm. Ergonomics on Taurus guns is awesome. I have not bought the dagger yet but I certainly will
I have a suggestion for the intro… it is inserting of a dramatic pause after you say “coming up next …dramatic pause… on GB Guns “ Looking forward to the what’s for dinner™ test.
I am curious to see what your "What's For Dinner Test" shows. I have the same Dagger, with that deep crowned barrel, and I have had nothing but issues with accuracy, FTEs and horrible ejection pattern. That is with 5 different factory loaded cartridges, including Federal HST 124gr. PSA sent me an RMA to look into it, but other people have had the same experience with that style of barrel.
@@GBGuns PSA has shipped the Dagger with at least three different barrels (six if you count unthreaded and threaded). The barrel with the steep crown, hex-shaped muzzle exit, and stamped "9MM" on top was originally thought to be an Initial (temporary) Replacement Barrel. The Dagger Barrel Manufacturing Defect with the Original OEM PSA Dagger Barrel stamped "9x19" on the side and "W" on the bottom first came to light in mid-January. On January 19, 2022, PSA suspended all Dagger barrel shipments. PSA was mailing the barrel with the steep crown as a free replacement for the defective Original OEM barrel. PSA later started shipping a Dagger barrel with an almost flat crown, round muzzle exit, and stamped "9x19" on the side (no "W" stamped on the bottom). This was assumed to be the New OEM PSA Dagger Barrel. However, it seems PSA has reverted to the barrel with the steep crown. Of course, it's possible both of these barrels have since been redesigned or are in the process of being redesigned. PSA is tight-lipped making it difficult to understand the current Dagger barrel situation. I have lynx describing the Dagger Barrel Manufacturing Defect Recall procedure and a table summarizing the differences in the three Dagger barrels, however, YT won't allow me to post lynx. Let me know if you'd be interested in exchanging the lynx offline.
Saw one in an email from Palmetto that had a threaded barrel, rmr cut, suppressor height sights and slide cuts for 399 I was super tempted but it was "sniper green" and am hoping for the same setup in black
I'm having extractor issues, I ordered an oem gen 3 extractor and I'm going to replace it and see if it fixes the issues. Been shooting tula steel case 9mm and 124 grain NATO spec brass, both see extraction issues. I also shot some critical defense nickel plated rounds which also failed to extract.
I had issues like that. After every shot it jammed. Sent it back, not sure ifbthey did anything, but since I've gotten it back it has been perfect. Had one ftf, but thats because I shot it one handed.
The Glock is just an ugly gun but it is 'so ugly it's beautiful' or ugly but functional, I'll grant that. The Dagger is one of many Glock clones that have appeared but PSA went the extra mile and multi-beveled the front half of the slide for easier holstering and added front slide serrations, added two angles on the trigger guard (making it rakish) and added enough detail embellishments to set it apart from other clones but refrained from going overboard. There's some ugly guns out there that have wild design elements on every square centimeter on the frame and slide. Gag!

Ordered mine with FDE slide today. Lookin forward to it
This is exactly what i was waiting for . Mainly the chamber support.

Take this gun seriously. It shoots just fine. I am shocked at what you can get for $350 ( with 10 mags and a case)..nice job psa.
I like the dagger and the trigger is better for me than a Glock, but I do get slide bite from it though.

I’ve been curious about the PSA Dagger. Looking forward to your range video. Thank you, sir.
If you want to watch it now check the pinned comment.
@@GBGuns Thanks, watching it now.
I’m impressed.
yeah, aside from the hoslter concerns, and I've heard of quality control issues, it's a great bargain gun.
I was told that none of the Glock holsters work. Could you test that if you get a chance
It's been a while... I wanted to handle One. Finally got an email They where available And$300. I Love it so far. I'm impressed for the money.
We just filmed the range video today.

Nice looking pistol, price is rite ...
best pistol there is for $300. would choose the dagger over any taurus.

That's interesting as we had some peculiarities with this barrel during our range video.

@@javiertorres2788 exactly what's happening to me. In replacing the extractor and hopefully that fixes it
@@dman2007 it should. I've heard in the dagger fb group that that always fixes the issue.
This would have to be a better choice with $300 than a Taurus.
It takes just a couple minutes to file the finger bump off if it irritates your hand. It bugged me so off it came, no problems.
my dagger wont fit in the glock or p80 holsters i have but it did fit in my cz p10c holster.
The Glock is just an ugly gun but it is 'so ugly it's beautiful' or ugly but functional, I'll grant that. The Dagger is one of many Glock clones that have appeared but PSA went the extra mile and multi-beveled the front half of the slide for easier holstering and added front slide serrations, added two angles on the trigger guard (making it rakish) and added enough detail embellishments to set it apart from other clones but refrained from going overboard. There's some ugly guns out there that have wild design elements on every square centimeter on the frame and slide. Gag!
are these barrels and slides serialized?
The frame is the only serialized part you can get slides and all slide components shipped straight to your house.
In the market for a new firearm / EDC .. what’s better Taurus G3 or the PSA Dagger ? Those are my options
The Taurus is likely to have better holster options
I sanded mine to NOT get Glock knuckle and my pinky would get pinched
Wonder if there's a Gen 2 in the works already?
It is PSA, seems like each month there's a new PSA AK.
see it for 248
Thanks GB. Great job. Good info. God bless.
LETS GO BRANDON
