SIG/GSG 1911 Vortex Venom Sight Mount

thingiverse

Mount a Vortex Venom red dot sight on your firearm. Originally designed for UK-legal GSG 1911 LBP (Long Barrel Pistol) models, this mount should work seamlessly with normal models or clones. **Installation Instructions:** - Remove the original rear-sight using a hex key. - Install the printed insert into the Novak fitting where the rear-sight was originally positioned. - Fit the printed mount over the insert, which should rest in the rectangular hole at its base. - Place the sight on top of the mount; the bumps on the mount should fit into the recesses at the bottom of the sight, and the middle holes should align with those in the sight's base. - Screw 2 M3 screws (about 10mm seems ideal) through the middle holes in the sight and into the mount insert until secure. Since you're screwing directly into the printed insert, they are essentially one-time use. My intention is to install threaded inserts so it can be reused. Future plans are underway. **UPDATE 01/11/2017:** I added a slimmed-down version with an improved fit at the rear of the slide and another with a built-in charging handle. **UPDATE 02/11/2017:** Additional mounts and inserts have been created, allowing for brass M3 threaded inserts to be inserted, making the sight insert reusable.
