Bigsampson Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 What is the cleanest and best method to attach some type of RMR to an STI edge? Don't want to mill the slide, but want to be able to have the ability to have an RMR. Which would be the best unit for this application? Burris Fast Fire, Leopold Delta Point, Trigicon LED, Vortex Venom, c-more sts? Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uewpew Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 I'm not real familiar with open set-ups...but if you don't want a slide mounted optic then i guess you'd go with a frame mount...something like this: https://www.speedshooter.com/category_list.cfm?ID=MO You'll have to drill and tap your dust cover. Can't help with optic...but tough to beat Vortex warranty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mscott Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 (edited) EGW makes a wide variety of dovetail mounts that fit where your rear sight is. You will need to buy one to match the cut you have on your slide and the red dot you wish to use as there are several patterns of each. My Edge has an LPA cut for the rear sight.

Bigsampson Posted February 7, 2017 Author Share Posted February 7, 2017 Thanks. A source for dovetail mounts is prob the best route. Not it trying to create an open gun, just put an rmr on a 2011. Def don't want it frame mounted. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
