Anyone try anything like this yet? Thought about it after noticing that the new Taurus has a barrel mount. If the sight is not moving with the slide, that may help with adhesion and not cause cycling problems.

Epoxyed on a cheap red dot. The picatinny rail crossbar on the sight fit in the forward groove and may keep it in place. Will try to head to the range this coming week.

Low expectations, but I am swapping most of my pistols to red dots due to my aging eyes. If successful, will try it with a better red dot. Compensator should keep the dot window a bit cleaner.

…and it works. Downside is that amount of view in window is decreased, but that didn’t hinder me picking out things to shoot. This isn’t a defensive handgun situation.

Will most likely pick up a better inexpensive dot and clean up the mount.

I very much enjoy the dot over the ”iron” sights. Not seeing this as holster-able.
