Back in February I pulled the trigger on two PSA Dagger frames and a slide.
The frames were the compact and full size, in Sniper Green, and the slide was FDE.

I’ve shot the Dagger with both frames and it shoots very well.
I’ve been keeping an eye out for another slide, and the other day PSA had the Dagger slide in sniper green on sale. I ordered one for a total of $217, and it arrived yesterday.
Looks like another trip to the range is due.

I have not bought any Dagger frames or slides but I know quite a few people that have and they are happy with them.

The only thing I personally don't care for on the Dagger is the trigger shoe but that is an easy fix since any Gen 1-4 Glock shoe will work.
 
I just picked up another slide for an extra frame I had lying around (I was buying a Rock frame anyways and there was a deal where if you bought a PSA Rock frame you could also get a PSA Dagger frame for like $30 more than just the Rock frame cost). I think between picking up the frame on sale, plus the slide, plus a barrel from Combat Armory I've got like $180 invested into that gun total.

PSA is a bit weird in that it seems like very frequently you can get their guns cheaper if you buy them in pieces. A Rock is like $500 but if you pick up the frame and slide/barrel on sales separately you can get it closer to $350 or so. Plus they have a local store like 20 minutes down the road from me so I don't have to pay any FFL transfer costs when ordering from PSA :D.

. This morning I noticed a complete optics cut slide with a holosun option for $319.99. They also had a blemish frame listed, I don’t remember the exact price I think it was $59 or $69. You could have a Dagger with an optic for around $400. You would just need magazines. The deals were listed on gun.deals.

Way to many different angles and design elements.

The frames are very comfortable. The slides come from just a basic cut to fancier cuts.

One reason if that you’re not paying the 11% federal gun tax on the slide. Plus when a company makes most of the parts for their guns, they can lower the price.
I’ve been looking at the Micro Dagger slides. I might pick one up and wait for the frames to come out.
 
Looks good. I will probably buy a PSA Dagger Micro whenever they release them.

Here's my complete Dagger compact.

It is kind of crazy. I bought my Dagger about a year & a half ago. I paid extra for night sights & the sniper green finish on the slide. Buying the slide with the optic & the frame would cost very little more than I paid for my pistol that doesn't have an optic cut then. I do like it though.

I'm really impressed by how bright the night sights are on my Dagger compact.

I'm tempted to buy a $60 blemished compact frame:

And a slide with optic $419:

I would need another holster for those tall suppressor sights.
 
I have a former coworker offering me his A Arms conversion kit 22 cal. for free. It might be interesting to mate it with PSA Dagger frame.
Father's Day sound a fair celebration for this honest, hard worker, faithful and lovely man.
