Anyone have any insight on - or better images of - Atei's shimsight for M&P slides they've milled for the Acro?

Based on Wayne’s previous recommendations; Ameriglo GL-429.

Yup, Ameriglo GL-429. They just clear the optic’s window giving you a small sight picture while mainly staying out of the way. The pic with the dot at the bottom has aligned irons (it was impossible to focus on the front sight with my phone).

I got a plate for my P10F and my Acro is coming next week. I doubt the irons will clear but I'm probably just not going to worry about it. My 92GSD is my goto but I am going to try out the RDS again since at 45, my eyes aren't getting any better
If it is the OR version your stock sights won’t clear it. You can order a p09 front eighth from Dawson’s that is tall enough to clear the optic. You won’t be able to find a rear sight yet, but I found that using the tall front alone, and keeping the stock rear sight, you can still get an acceptable backup sight picture out to the 25 (as far as I went because I was having fun shooting with the dot on instead of off)
That looks like really nice work.
I used to think my sights on the VP9 were canted left. I also notice it on yours. It seems to actually be an interesting optical illusion due to the slide cover.
Exactly the information I was coming to look for. I want the irons to be as low in the window as possible, while being usable. Looks like the GL-429 set is perfect. Can't argue about the price either. Thanks for the pics.
Whelp, I think I see a 19.5 MOS in my future.
