“Tight fit. Gentle tapping got it in with out any milling to the mount. I don’t think everyone should install this on their own, if you have any doubts your better off going to a gunsmith.”

“Installation was a challenge. I had to file the mount down quite a bit to get it to fit into the dovetail rear sight mount. Fortunately, I'd looked at a post on YouTube showing they also had that issue. Otherwise, I would have ended up returning the mount. BUT since I did get it installed, I was able to sight in my Vortex Venom precisely, and it worked quite well!”

“The sight mount was easily fitted with minimal filing. Small changes at a time. If you are NOT machinist minded I recommend you have this fitted by a qualified experienced gunsmith. It would also help if the company supplied a torque recommendation with the instructions. However once mounted it was perfect, the optic mounted readily to it and it's great overall.”

“It did not fit because I am an idiot and ordered this mounting plate not realizing I had an M&P 2.0 version which this does not fit. However, I am betting this would fit the standard M&P just fine! EGW makes fantastic products!”

“Communication - I messaged to ensure I was purchasing the correct mount and my message was answered very timely. I was provided an order confirmation, an invoice and a notification that the mount had been shipped. Shipping - The mount was shipped quickly and arrived quickly. The mount itself - The mount did require some minor work on the dovetail with a file to get it to go in. Perhaps it would have gone in with a bit more force than I was willing to apply and still been fine but I chose to just file it a bit. I mounted a Vortex Viper and it was a perfect fit. Satisfaction - So far I am totally satisfied with everything from start to finish.”
