Can someone take pictures of a stock CZ75 Compact slide for me?

[CraigAPS]

My dad has a 75 Compact that he wants to put a red dot on. I've been looking at mounting options other than milling the slide, thus a dovetail optics mount. EGW said theirs won't work with the Compact slide. It doesn't have "enough meat" for it to work. CZ Customs makes one that specifically says 75 Compacts, but I'm not too crazy about the multi-sight footprint they use. If it's the only thing that'll work, then we'll go with it. I emailed Spinger Precision about their mount (which is one piece and they have different models for different footprint options), and they asked me to send pictures of the slide. As I'm wanting to do this as a gift for my dad, I'd rather not ask him to take the photos. I was hoping an INGO member might have one and be willing to take some pictures for me?

I don't know if there are any differences, but here is a CZ 75 D PCR Compact slide.
Amazing how much dust is captured by a pic!

Honestly, I'm not sure either. I know the rear sight is definitely different, but I'm not sure about the actual dovetail. Regardless, thank you!!

The pcr is different, has a flat area in front of the rear sight. I have a semi-compact (full size grip compact slide).



Here is the SC, if you want a pic from the top or rear I can get one later this evening. You may find a nice picture on GB.

I hadn't thought of looking on GB!

The compact dovetail looks very similar to the SP-01 to my eye. I need to get out the calipers and measure them. I had a Sig dovetail optic mount on my SP-01 before I decided to get it milled so if they are the same a dovetail mount should work on a compact.

That's what's weird to me. Even EGW lists their mount as working with the 75, 85, 97, SP-01, P-01, and PCR, but the Compact won't work, apparently. I thought, like a G17 vs G19, the only difference was the slide and grip lengths.

Seems strange. It makes more sense if it worked with the 75, 85, SP01, P-01 & Compact. The 97 has a wider slide and the PCR has the flat cut forward of the rear sight. Anyway, I measured my SP01 and SC slide and the dovetails are the same and my SC slide will fit on my SP01.

Hope that helps. Good luck.

FWIW I was looking on CZParts site and they list some of the EGW mounts as fitting “CZ 75B & SP-01, CZ P-01 & CZ 75 Compact”
which makes more sense.

Yes. Thank you for your help!

I heard back from Springer Precision. They said that apparently the dovetail sizes fluctuate, but, depending on what the slide looks like, they can tell whether it's standard size (like newer production guns) or not. I guess this was all superfluous, and I'll have to try to get a super sneaky picture over Easter.
