M&P 10mm sight swap?

[FHBrumb]

I'm seriously considering buying the 4.6 inch 10mm. I'm not a "Dot Guy", and very much dislike the suppressor height sights. The 10mm sights look to be different from the 45. Has anyone seen a low profile aftermarket sight set? Or anything that might work?

Thanks!

The M&P sights are on the short side of "optic height sights". Not nearly as tall as my XDM 10 OSP suppressor sights. My poi at 15 -20 yards was pretty much combat hold with the M&P.

I'd like to find something else. Kinda wonder if the 45 slide wouldn't drop on...

Hmm. I have both the .45 and 10mm 4.6"
I'll try a slide swap and see what happens.

My guess is that the extractor and ejector will be issues. The 10mm has a smaller rim.

So I did a quick check.
The 10mm complete slide went on the .45 frame and functioned normally.
The .45 complete slide would not go on the 10mm frame.
If trying to use the 10mm barrel and rsa in the .45 slide, you can see the amount of slop and gap in the pics.
Looks like you'll just have to replace the sights on the 10mm slide if you don't like them.

Or just suck it up and learn to shoot with a dot...

For the 10mm?
