I have a Ultra-Dot Match Dot II - but the electronics package (the big part in the middle - is so long, I cannot mount it to the shorter rail that comes with the PC barrel. There is a clearance issue between the front tube on the sight, and the higher front sight.

I use this pistol for precision target shooting.

Is there a reflex type sight folks have used with the PC barrel / sights? I'm thinking there's a little higher version that might allow for co-witnessing.

Thoughts and suggestions welcome.

You can easily mount your MDII using both mounts forward of the mid section, or if you prefer a single mount forward will do nicely. I prefer both mounts forward myself. All of my MDII's are mounted this way. I use both the rings that come with the MDII in some cases and after market scope mounts in others. Depends on how much weight I want.

This should solve your problem. bob

PS a nice substitute is the Holosun 403 or 503 depending on which configuration suits you. I have several 403's on rim fire hand guns and sometimes prefer them over the MDII's. Depends more on ambient light than anything.

I used a cantilevered mount for my Ultradot on my M41-PC.

A bit "chunky" but works a treat.
It is also "hollow" underneath, allowing the iron sights to be viewed for those times when the dot goes out ! (notice the green fibre-optic front sight)

I'm looking at getting a Vortex Venom 3MOA for my Model 41 with attached rail.

This is a Burris FF3 mounted on a BME base on the 7" barrel that I cut down to 5". Works for me.

I have an Aimpoint on mine and it works very well.

I also tried it with an Ultradot reflex but I liked the Aimpoint better.

I like that base setup, do you use that for shooting, for just for display? I can I got about something like that for sighting in, etc.?

Thank you all for sharing your experience, that is exactly what I was looking for!

Quick update, I tried the cantilever mount option, with two rings, and with the Vortex cantilever mount (looked pretty badass to me). I had difficulty holding zero with both options, and was a little uncomfortable with the setup (weight, etc.).

Sooo, I went with Burris FF3 - light, compact, sturdy, is holding zero well so far, good sight picture (a little harder to pickup than the UDII due to the smaller lens).

That is a folding rest I use to sight in my 41. There are more pictures of it in a prior post somewhere on the forum.

It appears that you've solved your issue but, I'll post this for reference. I have an UltraDot mounted on a Weaver base that's been working well for me for many years.

Another high quality, low cost option is the small, lightweight, Bushnell Trophy TRS-25. I have it mounted on a couple of pistols and really like it's smaller 3 M.O.A. dot. I've included a photo of one mounted on an old, Browning Challenger.

I have tried a Bushnell pistol scope a few years back. It made the 41 a Bit heavy for my hands and Balance so I went back to the open sights. I know for sure its me hitting the Bullseye everytime with Open sights. No scope for a aid.

If Anyone likes to be able to holster their 41 with a red dot attached you could do what I did. I haven't had a chance to shoot with it yet but fits in my Triple K Holster fine without any Mods to the holster. Oh I forgot to mention its real cheap to make too if your 41 is already D&T.

Get a Weaver #62. They are made to fit the D&T newer 41's.
Now here's the trick. Remove the rear Sight. Now Mount the rail 180 degrees from the usual way it is mounted by just using the back 2 holes on the rail and the 41. After deciding what Dot you will mount you then have the option of using a short rail raiser on the Weaver rail where the 41 rear sight used to be. Mount the sight so it does not project behind the slide and barrel. after you have it fitted( you will probably have to file the weaver rail slots to accept the pic rail riser bolts.I was able to widen and use one of the weaver slots and then I just cut a new slot for the 2nd pic rail riser bolt) you just remove the weaver rail and cut off the portion that sticks out behind the barrel.

As i said i Haven't shot it yet but everything is loctited and seems good to go. Since the sight won't be moving and we are talking about a 22 I don't anticipate any surprises. The Riser allows you to use any long sight since it will pass over the holster.

The whole thing took me about 2 hours to do and cost less than $30.00 for the Weaver rail and the Riser.

As I said I did it too my Wife's 41 with the 5.5" barrel and it fits nicely in her triple K holster and still snaps shut on the mag pouch.

We like that we can holster our guns when at the range and not leave them on the bench when going to change targets etc.

Anyway thought someone may find this helpful.

This was my solution to having a red dot on a PC M41. It works very well and I like it a lot. There is no co-witnessing here. If I should need the iron sights for some odd reason and I just take the red dot off. Sorry for the upside down pic. Don't know why it did that.
