How long have they held up for you?
Eyes getting older and been considering a red dot. Optometrist recommended it actually.
For those using dovetail mounts how many rounds have you put down range without failure?
Been looking into them myself, and after calling a CZ gunsmith They no longer sell dovetails due to the hammering it causes on the dovetail and slide groove causing the zero to change overtime, and potential to crack the mount.
they don’t recommend them due to torque it puts on the slide dovetail eventual moving of the RDS off zero as a result, plus some of the mounts have been known to break over time.
He said eventually it will happen, and I didn’t think to ask about an estimate of rounds, from their experience, before it happens.
He did say if i couldn’t find someone with a RDS to test (recommending doing so before I think about milling the slide) it would be okay temporarily just to see if I liked the RDS then have it milled of I do.
