The SIG Sauer 200 STR has an 11 mm dovetail on the receiver for mounting a diopter rear sight or a scope sight, either directly or via a Picatinny rail adapter.. Dovetails come in several different types and sizes depending on manufacturer, but the most common are the 11 mm and 3 ⁄ 8 inch (9.5 mm).
Such mounts are often model-specific to the firearm, and depend on factors such as the radius of the receiver bridge, the type of screw and the distance between the screw holes. A common fastening method is by screws. These are often metric M3.5x0.6 mm or US #6–48 (⌀ 3.5 mm, 0.53 mm pitch) or #8–40 (⌀ 4.2 mm, 0.64 mm pitch).
