Red dot mounts for American Precision Firearms Mark 2

A red dot sight gives you a single focal plane — your eye focuses on the target while the dot overlays it, rather than trying to align three separate reference points: rear sight, front sight, and target. Under time pressure this shortens sight acquisition and lets you call each shot more precisely. Most shooters find the transition noticeably improves stage times in IPSC competition and performance under stress in any context.

A dovetail red dot mount fits directly into the rear sight dovetail on your pistol — the same cut that holds the factory rear sight. The mount replaces the rear sight and positions the optic directly above the slide in the sighting plane. Installation requires no gunsmithing and no machining: remove the rear sight, seat the mount in the dovetail, and tighten the setscrew. The modification is fully reversible — if you want to return to iron sights, you reinstall the factory rear sight and the slide is unchanged.

Compatibility depends on the specific model and configuration — always check the individual product page before ordering.
