It is designed for in-spec MIL-STD-1913 rails. If you have rails that are dimensionally different, you would have to try it to see if they fit. As far as I know, there were three types of rail on this series of pistol, an original proprietary rail, a picatinny-type rail, and the current true picatinny rail. I don't think it would work with the old rail on the early models (pre-2022). Not sure about the older-style rail - I don't have one to try. It should work well on the new ones.

S&W M&P is will work fine. The XDm has a high rail to top of slide height, and as a result you will need to slightly relieve the inside top corners of the USM to clear the top corners of the slide. It touches on the corners just slightly - light enough that you can move the slide easily, but enough that it would wear the finish and might affect function. |

Just received this from a customer:
Just a comment on the USM mount. The product is excellent! I have used this on a Tanfoglio Witness Elite Match, a S&W M&P Pro and a Glock 35 . . .

The MAKO customer support was good. I had to wait a little over a week for it to ship. I called asking about what the hold-up was after 5 days. I was told it was going to come in the next Tuesday and would be shipped that day. The next Tuesday when it shipped, they sent emails to let me know it was on the way with tracking information.
XD(m) &SOG by mhazelwd, on Flickr . . . works well. I also have the Mako mount for my G17 that uses the trigger pin as part of the mount.. . . . 
G17 Gen4 Mako mount/BSA RD30 by mhazelwd, on Flickr I got this one from Cheaper Than Dirt. I like it a bit better on the Glock.  |

Anyone have pictures of this on an XD? would love to see how much shaving needs to be taken off the mount. And if someone was running large sights if they would have issues with this.

Very little material needs to be removed. It just rubs against the top corners of the slide, which would wear the finish on the slide and could possibly create enough friction to slow the slide and cause malfunctions.

Great thread folks!
I have been doing some internet research on a scope mount for my XD9 Tactical. I waned something to install a red dot scope, but still keep my irons. And I really didn't want to spend a $140 for a Carver mount. Ran across a forum mentioning the Mako USM. Googled Mako USM, and here I am. I've posted threads on AR15.com previously, but dealing with AR15s. It looks like, with a little filing, this mount will work on my XD9. Love internet firearms forums!
