Red-dot sight mount for Kimber Micro 9

[SerenityNetworks]

Is anyone aware of any options for mounting a reflex/red-dot sight on a Kimber Micro 9 that doesn't require milling the slide? I'm aware there are options for some pistols that allow you to push out your rear iron sight and replace it with a mount for a reflex. I've done a few searches and have not found anything leading me in the right direction. Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks,
Andrew

These guys might have something depending on the rear sight cut.

No . .100 stainless , it can be made with hand tools if you take your time . Made this for a friend who didn't want to mill his slide .

Would you consider making one to sell? Or give some pointers on how to make one? I really want one!

Make a poster paper template (what I did ) . After you get it how you want it transfer to a piece of stainless. When you bend it you have to allow for the metal thickness . Say the first attempt doesn’t turn out just right , big deal , your out maybe 3 bucks of stainless if that . Buy some wood grips that are fairly thick and cut the clearance for the mount . You got this .

That's really clever-simple, sturdy and straightforward. Everything good engineering should be.

I agree . Don’t know why I don’t see people making more of them . Especially the “ Oh my god don’t drill or mill your 1911, you’ll ruin the resale value “ crowd .
