Red dot on a XD Gen 1 ?

Anyone put a red dot and a XD (Gen 1) ?

I have a XD-40 5" Tactical, that I'm thinking of joining the trend and putting a red dot on.

Anyone done this or have guidance?

I'm looking at this mount:

Springfield XD Red Dot Optic Mount - WIDE Slide

Installing a Red Dot optic on a Springfield XD 40 or 45 or XD Mod2 is now painless. available for all models, compact and sub-compact. Fits original Springfield XD polymer firearms, all non XDM models. Allows for fast installation of a list of optics to fit these fine firearms.

With a Vortex Venom:

Is the Raptor One the only aftermarket slide?
I havn't been able to find anything else.

Takes about a week or so to get the cut and add the plate. Price not bad either.

This guys work looks excellent.
