CZ 97 red dot mounts

CZ 97 red dot mounts replace the rear sight in the dovetail so you can add a red dot to a non-Optics Ready CZ 97—no milling and fully reversible.

Why choose a dovetail mount?

• Keep the slide original: install an optic without permanent work.
• Test before you commit: try dot models/positions, then swap back to irons in minutes.
• Model-specific fit: secure interface designed to stay tight through training and carry.

Footprints commonly supported

• Trijicon RMR footprint
• Shield RMSc footprint
• Holosun K-series footprint
• Leupold DPP footprint
• C-More RTS footprint
• Vortex Venom / Docter footprint
• Aimpoint ACRO footprint

Install basics

• Degrease interfaces and screws; apply Loctite threadlocker.
• Torque to spec for mount-to-slide and optic-to-mount screws; re-check after your first range session.
• Verify screw length & pitch so nothing protrudes into the slide channel.

Upgrading other CZs too?

Factory Optics Ready slides use plates for a lower, more rigid interface—see Optics Ready plates. For other non-OR models, browse all dovetail red dot mounts.
