EGW
The EGW Fixed Sight Mount for Vortex Viper/Venom gives your Kimber 1911 a clean, reliable way to run a modern red dot sight. This dovetail-mounted adapter replaces your rear sight and accepts Vortex Viper or Venom optics, letting you keep the option to swap back to iron sights whenever you want. The progressive taper on the dovetail makes installation straightforward, and all mounting hardware is included so you can get to the range without extra shopping.
Built for the Kimber 1911 platform (note: this mount does not fit Kimber Micro or Micro 9 models), the EGW mount slides in from left to right and secures with a set screw. The design gives you a lower, more intuitive sight picture than traditional 1911 rear sights while maintaining the gun's handling and ergonomics. Whether you're running this for defensive work, competition, or just want faster target acquisition at the range, a red dot on a 1911 is a practical upgrade when done right.
Installation requires removing your factory rear sight and pressing the mount into the dovetail—a job best left to a qualified gunsmith if you're not confident working on your firearm. Once mounted, you'll use the included button head cap screws (which require a 5/64" allen wrench) to attach your Vortex optic, torqued to 15 in/lbs with blue Loctite. The mount ships with everything you need; just follow the step-by-step process and you'll be good to go.
