Just learned about the dagger. So far so good. Awesome for the price. Grabbed the timney upgrade on the daily deals for nearly half off.
Just got my Rock5.7 this week and can’t wait to get it to the range.

How do you like the laser? Looked like a solid upgrade wasnt sure how it would perform.

It’s not bad.
Pros:
I like the fit and feel, being slim is nice as most lasers are a little wider than the Picatinny rail itself. This one is very small and sleek.
Cons:
Its lightweight. The plastic is not polymer and just “plastic” from what I can tell. It just doesn’t look or feel strong or robust. Time will tell, but I’m not too hard on my pistols. At least not as much as I am with rifles.

It’s grease. I use a lightweight grease (Slide Glide Lite) on my guns. This is what it looks like after shooting for a while…probably too much grease on there too. But it is good stuff. I use it in all my competition guns and it keeps the guns well lubricated after long practice session

Definitely a bit too much.
I use Slip2000 EWG - but just a dab at the contact-point on the inside-top of the slide, a film on the outside-circumference of the barrel proper, in the barrel-lug contact area, and in the slide-rail tracks.
Everything else gets a light coat of Barricade oil. Partly because it smells really nice, partly because it works really well at rust-inhibition.
Then again, I rarely run more than a hundred or so rounds through any one gun at a time (usually less), and usually strip, wipe, and re-lube before reassembly and putting it away until next time.
