I don't know how to mount a rail but if you go to the Gabe Suarez site
Warrior Talk Forums there will be information on the relfexs sights used on pistols.
I don't think they use a rail but mount right to the slide. I know he has
done it with glocks and I believe M&P's. The site has much info to offer.
BTW I have a 40 and really like it with my XS big dot sights. Another
way to go for quick acquisition if that is what you are after.
