Good day all!
I'm looking into putting a Red dot on my old XD but I don't want to mill my slide. What are your opinions on the mounts that slide in place of the rear sight? Are these any good or should I just pay to have my slide milled?
Thanks in advice!

Cheap way to experiment with it. Presentation is way off compared to iron sights or a milled dot, and is a source of frustration for many.

If it's for a range toy, sure, go for it. Otherwise, I'd pass.

If I were gonna do that, I'd go with an EGW. Everything I've used from them seems to be quality.

Have you thought about looking for a replacement slide such as this:
