Question NEED A LITTLE ADVICE

I have a Model 15 with target sights and I would like to mount a reflector sight on the weapon. I would prefer not to drill and tap the frame, so, are there any products or suggestions out there that would do the trick? Thanks.

I'm not sure what you mean by reflector sights, but Crimson Trace makes a nice set of lazer grips for your gun that require nothing more that installing them on the gripframe, an adjusting the beam to coincide with your POI on target.

I guess the better term would be red dot sights, the non magnifying kind, such as Aim Point. Sorry.

If you mean the pre-war (?King) target sight with a tiny mirror built into the base I believe one is pinned and could be installed without great difficulty on a 6" target barrel, but the 4" barrel I believe the front sight was integral to the barrel.

There is a no-gunsmithing scope mount available but it may be out of production. Depending on the attachment of the red dot sight it may not be compatible, as the mount has some type of standard mounting base for rings and not a Picatinny rail. Try Brownell's or Midway to see if they are still being made.
