I think I might want to try one but know next to nothing about them. First off here are the problems that have to be overcome. I have a Glock 17 gen 3 I want to use. I don't have enough $ to get the slide milled and get a dot. I have a budget of $250 MAX to work with. I'd like to get a mount that fits in the rear sight dovetail. Is this even doable?
Now if this is possible, I will be carrying this daily, but being disabled most of my time is spent at home not doing much or occasionally out shopping. I was looking at the venom with the 3.? Dot for $188, but like I said, I have no experience with these yet. So what is available within my budget if anything?
Currently I have Truglo TFO's on it and love them, but diabetes is quickly taking away my vision an I'm hoping the dot will help. And yes, I do shoot with both eyes open, if that is relevant.
