The EGW red dot mount for the Smith & Wesson Model 52 lets you run a modern optic on a classic target pistol without any permanent machining. It slides into the factory rear sight dovetail, so there's no milling the slide and no sending anything off to a gunsmith. When you want the irons back, you pull the mount and reinstall your rear sight. That reversibility is a big part of why folks like this setup for a gun they don't want to cut into.
This one is machined in the USA out of 7075 aluminum and finished in a matte black Type III hardcoat anodize, so it holds up to repeated range sessions and looks right at home on a bullseye gun. The dovetail has a progressive taper that makes seating it cleaner, and keeping the optic low to the slide gives you a more natural sight picture and quicker pickup on target. It measures 1.811 inches long and .99 inches wide, so it keeps a slim profile up top instead of riding high like a bulky rail adapter.
The footprint covers the Vortex Viper and Vortex Venom, plus Burris FastFire 1 through 4, Docter/Noblex, and several others sharing that same pattern. EGW includes both button head screws for the Vortex sights and flat head screws for the Burris and Docter optics, along with a set screw, so you've got the right hardware for whatever you're mounting. A 5/64 inch allen wrench handles the screws.
Installation runs left to right with the muzzle forward. Drift out the factory rear sight, seat the mount in the dovetail, add a drop of blue Loctite to the mounting screws, and torque them to 15 in/lbs. A rear sight pusher tool makes the job a lot easier since S&W dovetails can run tight. One important note: this mount is made for the Model 52 and does not fit the Model 41.
No. This mount is made specifically for the Model 52 and is not designed to fit the Model 41. Some owners have reported getting it on a 41 with hand fitting, but out of the box it's a Model 52 part.
It's cut for the Vortex Viper and Venom footprint, which also covers Burris FastFire 1 through 4 and Docter/Noblex optics, along with several others that share that pattern. EGW includes both button head and flat head screws so you've got the correct hardware whether you're running a Vortex or a Burris/Docter style sight.
No permanent modification is needed. The mount drops into the factory rear sight dovetail in place of the stock rear sight, so there's no milling involved. You can pull it off and reinstall your original rear sight whenever you want.
Drift the factory rear sight out and slide the mount in from left to right with the muzzle pointed forward. A rear sight pusher tool is strongly recommended since S&W dovetails can be tight. Add a drop of blue Loctite to the mounting screws and torque them to 15 in/lbs with a 5/64 inch allen wrench.
