I've been toying with putting a red dot on my Hi-Power but I have run into a problem of finding an adapter plate made for it. I am looking for an aluminum plate that will drift into the rear sight dovetail. Any of you guys have any thoughts on who might have an adapter plate made for a Browning Hi-Power? I appreciate any help!

Must people concidere a red dot on a HP a terrible wrong. Another forum talked about using an 1911 mount envolving drilling and tapping a 4/40 . No pictures so do not know what mount. GW

May want to ask Cylinder & Slide about it. Far as I know, they have more experience with the Grande Puissance than anybody else.

C&S can do BHP work that no one else can do!

I know you can get plates for 1911s as I have a red dot on a 1911.
Nothing wrong with it at all, it is not a permeant modification, so what could be wrong.

I know that Bill Laughridge has retired, but last I checked (1-2 weeks), they seem to still be open.

They are still open under new ownership. I ordered some parts from them a couple of months ago.
