Do you need to actually drill new threaded holes into the gun, or are they using the existing rear-sight hole ? When you blast off a .357 it seems like the scope & the mount may get a real "jarring". That Rail has got to be really affixed to the gun. Any comments or pics would be greatly appreciated.

I use a Nikon Red Dot instead of a scope. My mount uses three screws to attach it to the frame. The mount also has my original rear sight mounted on it with a blade front sight so you can use it without the Red Dot and without removing the mount. And, yes there is a lot of jarring but Blue Permatex helps.
