p7fl Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 Been noticing EGW advertising in USPSA magazine. (Did they drop the name Front Sight?) Is anyone using a EGW optics mount on a Glock etc? Opinions? Are you happy with it. Goal is to try out optics on a Glock without getting too $ invested in to start Does the site mount extra high. How do you sight it in without a rear sight? Any other questions I should be asking? TIA jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcc7x7 Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 For 50 bucks it works great to give carry optics a try. Put it on my wife's gun and 4 years later it's still on probably 15k through it without a problem. I've used them a couple of times other than hers and never a problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff_Alan Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 I have one on a backup 320 and it works fine just sits higher than my milled. Sight in use a bore sight will get you on paper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tampa-XD45 Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 I use the EGW on a 9mm 1911 with a Holosun 507C and it works great. I use the Laserlyte bore sighter for every gun and it always get me within 2" of the bullseye. https://www.amazon.com/LaserLyte-Universal-Caliber-Rifles-Pistols/dp/B004NKW7C2 For the Glock, don't laugh but I've been running this $15 UTG mount for about 2 years: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07BK7SJF2/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Donald Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 I have a Springer Precision mount for a Vortex Venom on my M&P, so far I like it. I just couldn't commit to milling my slide yet. I picked up a second Venom cheap thinking of trying the EGW on my STI Eagle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaPoint Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 (edited) I've had the EGW optics mount on my G17 for about a year. I have a Vortex Venom on it and couldn't be happier with it. No problems installing it or otherwise. EGW has good stuff. Mine was on the paper at 10 yds when I mounted it. I adjusted it from there.
