Ok, I just caught this video because I'm putting a Romeo Zero on my 43x MOS. Here are a few things I noticed about your video. One, Sig sells an adapter plate / shroud for mounting the Romeo Zero to a 43x MOS that already has the front holes drilled. Two, With the shroud in place, you probably would have had the clearance you needed without grinding down the screws. I can't say for certain because I haven't mounted mine yet, but it seems to make sense. and finally, the adhesive film you used to keep the battery in place is not for that purpose. It's provided with the sight because, on the Sig P365s that are optic cut from the factory have a hole drilled into them that, if not covered with the film, would cause dirt (burnt powder) to go into the optic from underneath damaging the optic. I was very happy, however, to see that the Romeo Zero fits the 43x MOS like it was made for it.
Could you have uses the clear bottom seal as a template to cut the holes in the metal housing? I’m buying one of the awe for my 43xMOS and am worried if I drill incorrectly the sight will wobble n
Now that you mentioned it. That would be a good idea. It was a pain in the ass drilling a hole on the plate. But i got it to fit after trial and error.
Thank you for the video. It was very helpful. I was kinda fortunate, though. I ordered my Romeo zero through Optics Planit specifically for the G43X and the steel mounting plate came predrilled with the front holes.
In case any is curious, SIG sells a shroud screw kit specifically for the 43x mos. It comes with a shroud that has the front post holes already drilled and it has the right screw size specific to the 43x mos. It's $35
I"m putting mine together now, and this is what I was wondering. Also I"m noticing that with the shroud installed, the sight doesn't snap into the nubs on the slide, and its not as sturdy. I'm deciding whether to use it or not...
@@tacticalsamurai9851 do you know which number it was . I know there is a Dremel 3000 and a 4000 . I haven't used a Dremel before so I just wanted to make sure I got the right one , thanks for the help !
I took the shield off. It is actually flush without the shield. Been my carry gun for the past year now. Zeroed and able to shoot out to 50 yards ringing steel
I believe the 43x comes with rmsc footprint which this sight is so no plates required if you where to go with a different sight with a different footprint then a plate would be needed
$154?! You can get these for $100 or less any day of the week. I’ve seen them as low as $75 here in Oregon brand new. For that price you might as well find a veteran buddy to get you a vortex viper or venom.

They gave me the wrong battery! Thought I was going crazy for a minute lol. Thanks for the video, it was very helpful
Anytime. Im glad this video was helpful. It was my first time doing all this to the gun

I needed this video. Thanks for the info
Glad I can help. It was a bitch to do but it ran smooth when I took it out to the range. No failures with the screw on

the protective housing / shield. would probably have made the screw raise up enough to not hit the internals. did You try that before grinding?

@@ripcdburnmedid you end up leaving the casing off the sight
Thank you bro for the great and Very helpful video !!!
Thank you for watching and glad I can help
Just built a polymer 80 g26!! Going to try it out this weekend
Just wondering why you keep FMJ rounds instead of hollows in your 43x? No disrespect just genuine curiosity
Non taken. At the time I couldnt find hollows due to ammo shortage. But that has changed now. Shes hollows now.
helpful video, but bro, don't grind over your work area full of parts. do that over a trash can or designated area.
Pretty sure I saw a templet there to place the holes on the shield instead of guessing
What kind of Dremel did you use ? I am trying to figure out what will be strongest
Ordered the original Dremel brand off Amazon it works real well. I use it for lots of things even polishing small parts
@@tacticalsamurai9851 do you know which number it was . I know there is a Dremel 3000 and a 4000 . I haven't used a Dremel before so I just wanted to make sure I got the right one , thanks for the help !
@@ericcousinojr5222 dremel 4300 5/40 high performance is the exact one I got off amazon
@@tacticalsamurai9851 I appreciate that a lot thank you !
Also I look forward to seeing your fully modded Glock 43x as well !!
You could've put the shield over the optic and traced the hole or dot it with a marker instead of guessing.
how has this sight held up?
So far so good. It is still my edc. No issues with zero and stays zero. I ran about 300 rounds through the 43x with the red dot on. Still strong.
Does it cowitness?
No cowitness
Does it overlap slide, or is it flush?
I took the shield off. It is actually flush without the shield. Been my carry gun for the past year now. Zeroed and able to shoot out to 50 yards ringing steel
Did you use the 3moa or 6moa?
3 moa
No Glock mos adapter plates?
I didnt need an adapter plate for this red dot.
They don't come with the 43x MoS and 48 MoS like other models
I believe the 43x comes with rmsc footprint which this sight is so no plates required if you where to go with a different sight with a different footprint then a plate would be needed

Lies
If u have to modify to make it fit, then buy something else. this is 2021
Great, informative video 👍🏻 But please…. You are a man, cut those fingernails!!!
