zzt Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 I've had a dovetail mounted Burris FF3 on my Tacops for many years. Works great. Go for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcc7x7 Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 EGW Dovetail mount on a 226, DDP optic for over 30,000 rounds Bbl cracked at about 100k on the gun and replaced the bbl Optic didn't need to be resighted by some miracle of God and sig!! LOL DT mounts work great, also have one on an old 1911 that has well over 50k on it with an old style delta point still running strong! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheers623 Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 Bruce from Primary Machine could Mill your slide for sights and the optic. He did an awesome job on my Open Pistol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zzt Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 Using a dovetail adapter for a mount allows you to use any reflex sight you want. If you have the slide milled you are limited to those sights with mounting screws on .550" centers. If you also want locating pins, your choices are more limited. I have a custom 1911 with an RTS2 mounted directly to the slide. I also use locating pins. I believe the Romeo series uses the RTS2 footprint. If so, it should work fine. BTW, I thought mounting the sight closer to the bore would help with close shots. The difference in hold over for 5 yard head shots is minimal. I would not do it again because of the expense in having the slide milled and then refinished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcar157 Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 I have EGW dovetail mounts on two Dan Wessons, one a PM-9 and the other a Valor .45. Mounted Vortex Venoms on both and on the PM-9 have about 11,000 rounds through it and the gun and sight have been trouble free. Also have a CZ SP-01 Shadow Orange also with a EGW dovetail mount and a Venom rds. About 3,000 rounds through this one and both have been trouble free.
