So you went to the mother ship???

No. Home office. Joe Rogan's comedy club in Austin, TX is the mother ship.

Morning folks

Liking this warmer weather. Made a quick range trip yesterday for some handgun testing.

Morning CZickos

I need advice from the group about adding a red dot on my P01 Omega with suppressor height sights. Originally I was thinking of having the slide milled forward of the rear sight so that I could co-witness with the suppressor height sights. The problem is that the rear sight is large and would require the optic cut pretty far forward on the slide. I think it’s doable but I’d have to modify my 1791 optics ready holster so the red dot can sit deeper.

Does anyone else have a red dot on a 75 style slide with the suppressor height sights? I suppose the other option is to just remove the rear sight and have the red dot mounted further back on the slide. But then I have an unnecessarily tall front sight that serves no purpose. Are there any other options I’m missing?

I’ll probably have AllenM do the work and I’m thinking of a 507K, but I’m open to considering other sights.

I have looked at this many times but gun fund says no

Dan Wesson Revolver 8" .357 Magnum

The Dan Wesson Razorback 10mm AUTO 1911 Pistol has a 5-inch barrel and a match-grade trigger. It also has a stainless frame and is made in the USA.

Your credit card always says yes.

This is my Rami with OEM sights, milled by AllenM, if I had suppressor height sights they would block the dot.

Your credit card always says yes.

No, YOUR credit card says yes. Mine squeals like a pig!

He deserved it. I don’t understand why people keep bidding when they see our names. Sigh.

They obviously don't know who they're bidding against.

Have you considered a Delta Point Pro which has a mounting point for a rear sight?




or you could just eliminate the front sight?

 

[MindfulMan]

Good morning, gangsters !

FH --- sorry, but I don't have any suggestions for you, as I don't use pistol red dots. Wish that I could help !

I had thought about it but I was under the impression that the DDP was a bit large for the 75 slide, especially for concealed carry.

I’m not opposed to eliminating the front sight or just swapping in a short one just as a place holder so it’s not an empty slot. Since this will be a permanent change I want to make sure I consider all the options, the do’s and don’ts and get it right.

What iron sights do you have on your Rami? Those look different from my suppressor height sights. But that looks like a good sight picture. I prefer the 1/3 co-witness, if that’s the correct terminology, with the dot above the front sight.

Edit: added pic

A couple of thoughts. It looks like those sights are going to be obnoxiously tall for a red dot cowitness to begin with, unless that's what you want. But, to me it looks like they're going to block a lot of the window. Also, the 407K / 507K sights have a rear sight built in, so you could possibly find a different front sight that would work correctly.

I think you need to do some measuring in regard to how tall the optic will be once mounted and the height of those suppressor sights.
