Egw Sight Mount For Vortex Viper/Venom Fits S&W M&P Black
$44.99
The EGW Sight Mount for Vortex Viper/Venom is a dovetail-mounted optics adapter designed to fit Smith & Wesson M&P pistols with full-size or compact slides (standard M&P models). This mount lets you upgrade your carry or duty gun with a compact red dot sight by replacing the factory rear sight—no permanent modifications needed. The progressive-taper dovetail design simplifies installation and allows you to swap your red dot on and off without gunsmith work, making it practical for shooters who want to run optics without losing the ability to return to iron sights.
EGW mounts are engineered for left-to-right installation (muzzle forward) and ship with the hardware required for Vortex optics: two button-head cap screws pre-selected for Viper and Venom sights. The mount accepts a 5/64" Allen wrench for screw installation, and blue Loctite (applied per the included instructions) secures your optic to the base. Because this is a dovetail adapter, professional installation by a qualified gunsmith is strongly recommended to ensure correct fit, torque specification (15 in/lbs), and safe function.
This is a direct replacement for your rear sight—simply remove the factory sight, slide the EGW mount into the dovetail, tighten the set screw, and install your Vortex red dot. The modular approach makes it ideal for shooters who value flexibility: train with optics, switch back to irons if needed. Note that this mount does not fit M&P C.O.R.E models (which are already optics-ready), M&P Shield EZ .380, M&P .22 Compact, or the older SW9VE and SW40VE platforms.
As with any firearm modification, improper installation or use carries risk. Have a qualified gunsmith handle the work, and understand that mounting an optic may affect your warranty coverage with the firearm manufacturer. This is a precision component—treat it accordingly.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this mount fit my Smith & Wesson M&P?
This mount is designed for standard Smith & Wesson M&P pistols with full-size or compact slides. It does NOT fit M&P C.O.R.E models (which come optics-ready), M&P Shield EZ .380, M&P .22 Compact, or older SW9VE and SW40VE models. If you're unsure, verify your exact M&P model before ordering.
Can I remove the mount and go back to my factory rear sight?
Yes. The EGW mount replaces your rear sight in the dovetail and can be removed without permanent damage to the firearm, allowing you to reinstall your factory rear sight at any time.
What's included with this mount?
The mount includes two button-head cap screws sized for Vortex Viper and Venom optics, and all necessary mounting hardware. You will need blue Loctite (not included) to secure your optic, and a 5/64" Allen wrench for installation.
Should I install this myself?
Professional installation by a qualified gunsmith is strongly recommended. Proper dovetail fit, screw torque (15 in/lbs), and secure mounting are critical for safe, reliable function. Improper installation can affect firearm safety and may void your gun's manufacturer warranty.
