This is my first experience with this, so please bear with me... So I picked up a G17 with the cut out for a rds. I also picked up a vortex venom that was on sale few weeks back. When I tried to mount the rds to the pistol, the rds is longer than the cutout.
After doing some research, it appears I need a plate of some sort to marry these two together. It seems that i'm going to have to get a plate and have to loose the rear sights. Is that correct? I would really like to keep the rear sights. Can anyone tell me what I need to get to make that happen? Or am I putting this thing together incorrectly?
It's a gen 3 if that makes a difference.
