Is there any benefit to using the SWR slide over the base model slide as an EDC platform?
Or am I falling victim to marketing hype?

Your probably going to get 100 different answers
In my opinion for EDC it does not matter.
99 more opinions to go.
Lighter
Tacticool points with the guys
Chicks will buy you drinks more often
Makes Glock fan boys jealous
It is 100% personal preference when it comes to slides
EDIT: I love the SW5 slide, I have a SW4 slide hanging out, going to get a Full Size frame shortly. But, if these weren’t available, the regular dagger slide would get the job done.
and you can add a ported barrel and get extra tacticool points!
Looks cool, its just one of many options you can choose depending on your tastes
And also stated previously there is a ported option that i want to get my hands on
Which faction will you join?!
Decisions decisions…

Right now, I’m on the side of “not yet”. I need to sell some old gear I’m not using anymore.
tough choices huh?
How much weight reduction do you get with a slide with “windows “ cut …The Dagger is already light … Id like to build a very light 18 oz non optic cut Dagger ?
All assembled Daggers on the website show 22.4 ounces, unloaded. None of the slde assemblies list a weight.
I’ve actually found my plain Dagger slide to be heavier than both my Glock and Brownell’s slides. Didn’t actually weight them, just held in hand. Part of it is the metal guide rod, the rest is, something. Doesn’t bother me though, and is probably part of why the Dagger seems to have less muzzle flip.
I wish there was a picture key to see all the SW choices or distinctions in one place - hard pick from various ones if i can’t see them all together. If so, where is the link.
I might can help out

Does anyone know if PSA will be making anymore SWR Slides. I have been waiting to get a Dagger Complete SWR RMR Slide Assembly in Black with no barrel? It has been Out of Stock for a while now and I am wondering if it is going to come back in stock.
I too would like to know the different weights of the PSA Dagger Slides.
