Taurus G3 Red Dot Mount | Dovetail Mounts for Old & Glock-Style Cuts
Taurus G3 Red Dot Mount – Dovetail Mounts for Old & New Models
The Taurus G3 is a trusted pistol for defense, carry, and range use. To make it optics-ready, you need the right red dot mount. At Mounts Plus, we carry Taurus G3 dovetail red dot mounts that fit directly into your pistol’s rear sight dovetail — no drilling, no milling, and no adapter plates required.
Since Taurus has used two different dovetail cuts for the G3, it’s important to choose the correct mount for your pistol. We offer both:
