Go gun and yes it's RMR style fits very right to the gun
Low.profile I like it better than the 3d printed ones I bought.
Also allows the red dot to sit lower.

I don't get it. Why do folks think the reflex sight needs to be over the receiver? It does not. If you do, the sight center is too high. The distance between barrel center and sight center needs to be as small as possible otherwise you have a hold over/hold under situation especially at short distances. The 11 mm rail on the shroud works perfectly. Unfortunately, many of the best small dot reflex sights use the 22 mm rail, but there is a spring loaded adaptor that adds no extra height and provides the best low mount sight line position.. That's the one to use.

To keep the maximum amount of weight to the rear over the hand, and imo aesthetically it looks better. And as @Louie4321 just pointed out it’s better for holster availability.

Because my GK1 soon won't have a rail on top of the shroud. I'm expecting it to be both lighter and quieter well not upsetting the balance.

Thats Awesome!!!!!! I get it now. Just get rid of that barrel shroud and put Krazcools falcon rail on it with a muzzle break. You'll have the best looking airgun.

No falcon rail, too heavy, non-function shroud volume, but it looks great. Function over form!
Rear receiver mounted red dot, CF shroud with integrated moderator. This isn't the final length, just a test fit. I'm not sure if the CF shroud is low enough to use the stock rear sight. Probably not, thus mandating the use a red dot.
One concern is if the valve does an air dump is where are the piece going to fly? Best to wear eye protection and not have anyone standing to the sides or of course anywhere downrange.

the falcon is made out of aluminum and is half the size but cf is very light. Can you put a moderator on that shroud? I bet they weigh similar. Obviously your putting a rear stock on it so you'll have a nice carbine.

No I was just asking if anyone used it. I think I will buy it as the open sights probably won't work. A 25 OD 1mm wall thickness CF is really light the aluminum shroud is many times heavier and won't help with sound reduction, because it's internal volume isn't utilized.

I am reading a lot of misconceptions here. Pistols MUST be nose heavy. If they are not, it is very difficult to shoot them accurately. This is caused because of your trigger finger side thrust. That side thrust is unavoidable simply because of how your finger is hinged at the joint.. Forward mass is your friend. It reduces the tendency to pull the barrel out of line at trigger release. Please note the addition of forward bob weights on Olympic pistols, that's why they are there.

Not with a 6" oval moderator sticking out the end! If that was so try shooting a rifle extended with one hand. There is a limit based on a persons ability to hold the gun's weight without fatique.

The GK1 already has a lot of forward weight due to barrel length and especially once you have a mod on it. I understand your point I just don’t need any additional weight there

great advice!! Im in a pistol league and no matter what im always shooting to the right. The fire starter told me to try and think of squeezing the trigger straight back to you. When we replace our cardboard its always the right side that takes the abuse.

Question - if you didn't have a way to make your pistol nose heavy should you adjust your sight to the left? That way im not constantly fixated on that trigger squeeze. As you know there is 10 other things you have to think about and this would eliminate one.

Consistent grip and grip tension is critical to accurate shooting with a hand gun. Just as important is the position (forward/aft) of the physical trigger in the trigger housing. Fingers are different lengths. The ideal position of the trigger to minimize this side thrust should be 90 degrees to the center of finger rotation.
