I had been in contact with Leupold about using the DeltaPoint pro on the FNX tactical. The mount they were using is for the Smith and Wesson CORE and they were unsure if it would fit so they had not released it in their catalog. I just went to Leupold and they mounted to the plate to my slide, torqued it down and double checked fit using the dpp.
Should be changed to the website asap. FN is still sitting on a handful of mounts that Leupold was waiting to hear back on.  Attached File Attached File |

Alternatively, you may be able to just drop the rear sight and use Leupold's adjustable rear; maybe make it work with your front sight.
I have a DPP on a milled glock, cool to see it on other platforms |

You would have to change it something taller, as well. That really bites that the irons are non functional. RMR's work as designed. John

John http://i65.tinypic.com/r2q9fd.jpg I'll be st the range this weekend and will try it out. Otherwise it'll end up on another Glock and I'll grab an rmr for the Fn. |

I had been wondering what happened with this.
Good to see they did something, but the mounting height is pretty bad. Disappointing that they didn't think that was a problem while they were developing it (and telling folks for the last 12 months or so that it was right around the corner). |

Yeah this snailed along for way too long. It's really a bummer that this is the end result. I think milling a Glock for the Leupold and putting the rmr on the fnx just makes more sense. |

So the DPs won't co-witness but the RMRs will?

Quote HistoryQuoted: I have heard all sorts of stories. What is the best way to mount the DP Pro to the FNX 45 T? I have a 2017 FNX, I can get the DP Pro, new, for less than half MSRP with a military discount. Can't get much of discount with the RMR but will go the RMR route if mounting is better/simpler. p.s.

I took the DPP off the FNX and put it on my Buckmark. Way more than I planned on spending on the Buckmark, but I'm going to pick up the RMR for my FNX because it will fit directly. I should have done my homework better, live and learn. I'm going to hang on to the plate in case I change my mind, but my current plan is to watch for an RMR on sale, or when I have the cash bite the bullet and pay for the FDE version. |
