 Looks like a good set up if you don't have a rail .

Don't do it. I tried something similar on a Beretta 92 and it would not hold zero it is not anywhere near as good as using a rail.

There is no frigging way I am going to trust a magnetic mount to hold a zero with a 10mm's recoil.  :-\

Some outfit makes a trigger guard laser. That might be an option, but rail is best.

Scratch that! None of them look all that hot.

This might be your best option if you can fit it on. The Hogue grips will fit the EAA pistols, but I would call Crimson Trace first. You could always return it I guess.

 The Hogue grips you have to heat and stretch then where they wrap around the front mag well .  I think if you try that with the laser grips , you will destroy the switch .   AM I wrong ?

Why not just adapt one of the bolt on rails that you drill and tap to the dust cover of a 1911?

Drill, tap, then use some glass bedding epoxy to fill any gaps in how the rail interfaces with frame.
