I did the 2nd option and just bought two dovetail mounts to suit the different red dot footprints in case I changed sights in the future. The only benefit I see from this is if you don’t currently have adjustable rear sight you get the whole lot for not much more than an adjustable sight costs for the factory dovetail. Having said that the aftermarket adjustable sight will never go back on mine, if the dot shits itself it will get replaced. If you know what red dot you are going to use, just get the factory dovetail fitting plate to suit at around $100 would be my advice. Unless you plan on frequently swapping between dots and opens and enjoy zeroing. Red dots, making older blind men shoot awesome forever :-)
