I have one of the Mini red dot sights on a shotgun and love it. One of the fastest trends I see is people putting them on pistols not only for comp and plinking but also for defensive handguns I like this trend and endorse it as well. As I see it you have 2 choices contact the manufacturer and ask if they make a mount for your particular firearm. The other choice is to see which mounting solution they have closest to you chosen pistols and have a good gunsmith mill the slide to fit that particular mount. I have seen mixed results with the second approach. As it can and I say can not will change the weight and dynamics of the slide.
