Looking to add a dot to my old mk2 22/45.
It’s not drilled and tapped for a rail. I’ve found the EGW mount for $50, anything else I should look at? Will probably add a Holosun 407/507 |

If you choose to put a pic rail on. Weigand makes a couple options. I am looking at this for the same pistol. My thinking is I can put any red dot or scope if something goes wrong and won’t be stuck to one option. Weigand was one of the best ones back in the days.

The EGW Mount fits in the rear sight dovetail, that will keep the sight lower.
That’s the direction I’m leaning. |

DPP makes a cheap mount for red dots. It sells for $23 on Amazon. It uses the rear sight dovetail. I recently purchased one but haven’t mounted it yet as my MK2 is off getting threaded.

I used a B-Square rail for my 22/45. I found it at my local hardware store.
But it was over 20 years ago and I think $40 then. I've never taken it off. |

Maybe consider buying a Tac-Sol barreled upper receiver that is already drilled and tapped and has co-witness sights already installed.
Just a thought. |

I had bought a Lobos mount a while back since I liked the blended look, haven't got to installing, and now I realize my MkII probably doesn't have the mounting holes
