I can't see the metal sights anymore, so I need RD on all my pistols. I have a mill to do the work, I'm just concerned about the thickness of the slide in that area. If anybody has had one done I'd like to know they used a plate or bolted straight to the slide and some measurements.

It looks to be doable. Here is a link to one that CGW did.

I dunno, the 97 slide is pretty narrow. An adapter plate might be required even for the newer micro red dots. I have a Holosun 407k micro dot sitting on my desk. Even that looks like it might be too wide for my 97. I've got a Venom on a Springer Precision dovetail adapter that works well for me without the hassle of milling and adapter plates. 3 of my 75s have either direct milled or adapter mounted red dots. My aging eyes love the dots!

^^Ahh, good point, i missed that OP was asking if mounting a red dot with no plate was possible.
