No one makes an adapter specifically for my Para Ordnance Night Watchman originally equipped with Trijicon branded (novak styled) night sights. EGW's 'Kimber fixed sight' appeared to be similar so I took a gamble. Removed a slight amount of metal on the underside of the mount to clear the radius of the top of the slide. Not much more than the thickness of the finish. Fired a hundred rounds without problem. This coming weekend is our local club's Wood Shoot (three man teams cutting 4x4's in half with their pistols). Approximately 500rds to be shot so we'll see how it fares. Confidence is high.

After days of research I found your site. It was quick and easy to find the correct mount. And I was able to confirm the mount with your staff. It was satisfying to see everything fit with no hiccups. Thank you Michael

Received the mount for my Kimber 1911 in a timely manner. Installation went as advertised. Fit was extremely tight but used the provided set screw anyway. When they say that it must be installed ‘left to right’ they weren’t kidding. The tapper on the dovetail is almost impossible to see with the naked eye but it IS there and you won’t even get the dovetail to start if you try it the wrong direction. Very satisfied. The Vortex Viper fit perfectly. Used a vice with leather jaw covers to hold the Kimber and brass driving punch and a brass hammer to tap mine in. A dovetail pusher would be easier for the inexperienced.

Hi Katie, have not had chance to use the mount, my Kimber pro carry has fiber optics now and want to shoot with those for a while. Did put one of your red dot mounts on a CZ 75 B few months/ year ago and the fit was perfect. Think I had to get a riser ? Or something, not sure Reg Sanborn, NY & FL

I bought this mount for my Kimber Ultra CDP II after checking with the company to make sure it fit that gun. My high-quality pusher would not get it in. Tried to knock it in and it stopped barely while barely in. It is beat up now, so worthless. Will just re install my fixed sight.
