The T1/T2 ATA caps are incompatible with the M5. ATA M5 can be found here: ATA, Comp M5

ATA consists of 2 caps and 2 discs.

Having owned numerous Aimpoint T1s since 2007, and later, T2, we're quite fond of these small, tough, and fully enclosed dot sights. Our only gripe has always been the elevation and windage adjustment arrangement. If you're a T1/T2 user, you probably share our frustration, and have lost a cap or two over the years.

On a T1/T2, to adjust either the elevation or windage, the user unscrews the cap, flips it 180 degrees, mates the two dots/protrusions with the two indentations on the sight adjustment, and rotates the cap, which in turn rotates the adjustment dial.

As often is the case, adjustment isn't done in a single step. The user makes the estimated adjustment, fires to verify the zero, and repeats if necessary. The caps are rather short and small, and get lost easily. Such is the diminutive size of the caps it's not easy to dummy wire them. In any case, the sight itself is small and lacks much usable space for the tethering wire to loop onto.

ATA (Adjustable Turret cap, Aimpoint Micro) is a simple and robust solution. ATA gives the user the ability to make adjustments to either the windage or elevation without removing the caps.

ATA consists of a pair of 17-4 SS billet machined cap with internal O ring, and a 17-4 SS rotating disc with an externally accessible top slot. The disc has two dots/protrusions that mate perfectly with the two indentations of the adjustment dial on the sight. To make adjustments to either the windage or elevation, the user uses the rim of a cartridge (.223, .308, .45 ACP, and 9mm were tested) or a coin to rotate the externally accessible disc of the ATA.

ATA's caps are serrated to assist in its installation. There are 12 serrations total, matching the tick marks on the inside of the factory T1 cap.

The internal O ring prevents undue moisture from entering the ATA. In water immersion testing, ATA's ability to keep out water is on par with the single piece factory cap, to the depth of 77ft. To wit, T1 and T2 windage and elevation adjustments are water resistant even without the caps, they can't be taken to Aimpoint specified depths without the caps on, Aimpoint only warranties the sights to the advertised depths with the caps installed. When installing the ATA, please do not remove the O rings already present on the sight.

ATA is billet machined in 17-4 stainless steel, and QPQ treated. ATA is shipped partially assembled (O ring is installed inside the cap, the disc is not installed inside the cap). It is far faster and easier to install the ATA on the sight with the cap and disc separated (instructions are provided on the back of the card).

In place of the factory marking UP/R with a counter clockwise arrow, ATA's discs have the counter clockwise arrow, but individual caps for UP and R. As much as it may seem common sense that the elevation adjustment is always on top, and the windage adjustment is always on the side, the marking UP/R can be confusing to new shooters. At the risk of being redundant, the ATA disc with the UP engraving is installed on top (for elevation), the disc with R engraving is installed on the right side (for windage).

ATA is shipped as a pair of caps and discs (one with UP and a counter clockwise pointing arrow engraved, and another with R and a counter clock wise pointing arrow engraved). ATA caps ship with lubricated O rings installed.

ATA is proudly made in USA. U.S. Patent No. 11,054,218


NOTE:
The adjustment caps on the T1/T2 are NOT interchangeable with those on the M5.

ATA is shipped with the internal O ring already installed. It is a good idea to keep the O rings (both the O rings on the base of the adjustments, and ATA's internal O rings) lubricated with silicon based lubrication. In a pinch, petroleum jelly can be used as a substitute, but we recommend using the correct lube (silicon based O ring lube) for the ATA.

ATA caps should remain stationary when the discs are rotated, though it is acceptable for the ATA caps to rotate 90 degrees in either direction as long as the caps still apply pressure on the O ring on the base of the adjustment. When there is excessive cap movement (i.e. the caps easily moves in unison with the disc while making adjustment), silicon based O ring lubricant should be applied to ATA's internal O ring.

ATA disc's engravings are small, as the discs are small. For better visibility, white crayon or Laquer-stik (on Amazon) can be used to fill in the engraving.

NOTE: For Glock Gen 3 to 5 MOS only. THIS PLATE IS NOT COMPATIBLE with Gen 6 Glocks uses ORS. OPF-G6, RMR Glock Gen 6 RMR plate is compatible with Gen 6 Glocks.

OPF-G, RMR only fits Glock Gen 3 to Gen 5 MOS, not the LE only MOS3 (DPP), MOS5 (RMR), MOS6 (Holosun 509T) and MOS7 (ACRO).




OPF-G, RMR is compatible with RMR, SRO, and the new RMR HD and RCR. If your RMR, RMR HD, and SRO come with sight to plate 6-32 screws, be sure to only use the 3/8" screws, do not use longer 1/2: screws.

Do not use our sight to plate screws with Holosun sights. The screws we supply are for Trijicon RMR and SRO only. From October of 2023, we've begun to transition T10 sight to plate screws to T15.

OPF-G, RMR is designed for GLOCK's MOS and Trijicon RMR and SRO. If you use a Holosun and the long set of screws with OPF-G, RMR, you will risk damaging the plate. Holosun sights have 90 degree countersink screw holes, while RMR and SRO use 82 degree countersink. In addition, the supplied RMR sight to plate screws (6-32 x 3/8) are longer than what Holosun includes. Do not use our sight to plate screws with Holosun sights.

Our plates are made in ordnance grade 4140 steel, but it's not immune to user induced abuse. This can happen if the wrong Holosun screws are used with our plate.



Due to the +/- 0.005 tolerance of RMR and SRO, the plate may need to be fitted in order for the sight to fully seat. This should not be considered a drop in part.

Trijicon's tolerance between the recoil lugs to the front radiused edge of the RMR is +/- 0.005. While every OPF-G, RMR has been tested on our RMR and SRO, there is always a chance it might not fit your RMR/SRO without fitting. OPF-G, RMR's design cradles the sight tightly on the plate between the plate's front and rear fences, some fitting may be required. A competent gunsmith can do it easily if you're uncomfortable with fitting the plate to your sight.

OPF-G, RMR is compatible with factory MOS (Gen 4 and 5, including the new Gen 3 CA MOS) slides: G17, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 26, 34, 35, 40, 45, 47, 49 and 40. Both RMR and OPF-G, RMR are wider than G17, G17, G45, G47 and G34, and have a slight overhang on both sides of the slide. On 1.08" and 1.12" wide slides, the overhangs are gone. The front two corners for the plate don't match the wider slide's contours, this is but cosmetics. For more info, please visit this page: G20, G21, G22 Compatibility





OPF-G, RMR (Optics Platform, GLOCK, for RMR) is a GLOCK MOS Adapter Set 01 and Set 02 compatible plate for mounting Trijicon RMR or SRO on GLOCK Gen 4 and Gen 5 slides, G17, G19, G20, G21 G34, G35, G41, G45, G47 (width 25mm/1 inch.) and G40 that uses Set 02. GLOCK's OEM MOS plate's width matches that of the slide, but OPF-G, RMR is already wider to fully support the RMR, thus it is compatible with all MOS equipped GLOCK slides.

We like the GLOCK MOS concept, even if we find the factory MOS adapter plates could use some help. Standards, commonality, availability of parts are all good things. Heretofore, users have had to send in their slides to be milled to accept mini red dot sights, or opt for 3rd party optics ready slides. The time it takes to send in the slides to be milled, and varying quality of the milling work and optics ready slides notwithstanding, there was a lack a standard regarding the sight height, it'd be a coincidence if two slides milled by two different shops share the same sight height. GLOCK 's MOS may not sit as low as some, but in our opinion, what MOS offers more than makes up for it, namely a uniform sight height, ease of installation, parts commonality and availability.

OPF-G, RMR is a collaboration with a USMC combat veteran and former USMC Shooting Team head coach, Tom Shields. We used GLOCK 's MOS adapter plates as a basis, and designed our version of what we think it should and can be.

OPF-G, RMR's shape follows its functions, same as all of our products. We outlined the following objectives:
1. Sight is to be fully supported in the front and rear by recoil lugs/fences, with minimum movement.
2. Eliminate the need to use an additional sealer plate.
3. Correct length sight to plate, and plate to slide screws. Screws are to be Torx.
4. Adapter plate is to be machined in steel.

OPF-G, RMR accomplishes all of the goals outlined above. Machined in 4140 steel, and black nitrided, OPF-G, RMR's thickness is unchanged from that of the GLOCK MOS plate, it doesn't change the sight's mounted height, nor does it require different iron sights.

OPF-RMR is shipped with plate to slide screws (M3-0.5mm x 6mm, same GLOCK MOS cover plates screws are also usable), four sight to plate screws (6/32 x 3/8), and a VC3 packet.

Weight: 0.86oz
Plate to slide torque value: 13in/lb
Sight to plate torque value: 13in/lb

Material: 4140, black nitride, or 17-4 stainless steel, black nitride for salt water divers, or high humidity environments.

Proudly designed and made in USA.


OPF-G,RMR supports the full width of the RMR and SRO, a sealer plate is not necessary. Trijicon's position is that if the user is unsure, use the sealer plate, and the plate is so thin, if it is used it doesn't make any difference to the thread engagement. Trijicon's guide line on whether a sealer plate is required: https://www.trijicon.com/frequently-asked-questions/category/rmr-faqs

OPF-G, RMR is designed to sandwich the sight in its front and rear fence, we make the spacing as close to Trijicon's dimensions and tolerance as we can. Though we hold a 0.003 tolerance, Trijicon's tolerance is 0.005. In practical terms, this means while some RMRs will move inside the fences by a very small amount, others will need to be forced into the space.

For Vibra-Tite VC-3 instructions and data sheet, please scan the QR code below.


A proper torque wrench in inch/lb increments is required to impart the correct torque to the plate to slide, and sight to plate screws.

For good printable 8x11" RMR targets please follow this links:

HOLOSUN COMPATIBILITY:
Trjicon RMR and SRO share the same mounting footprint, OPF-G, RMR is also compatible with SRO. However, due to the precise fit of the front and rear recoil lugs/fences that are designed to closely sandwich the sight, OPF-G, RMR is not guaranteed to work with all Holosun sights. It will not work with 509T's RMR to 509T adapter plate.


We do not recommend Holosun 508T with our plates. 508T has a sloppy fit with OPF-G, RMR, the plate can't perform as designed (to hold the sight immobile.)

DO NOT use our supplied sight to plate screws if Holosun sights are used with OPF-G, RMR, you must use the short set of screws that came with your sights.



We recommend the torque wrench Vortex markets (we carry them, but that's not the reason) for its 1 in lb increment adjustment torque settings.

We will soon stop including the L wrench with all OPF products, L keys will become optional, we strongly suggest a proper torque wrench to impart the correct torque value.

As our friend Gary W Thomas II, AIA, NCARB has put it in engineering terms:

To understand the concerns with the GLOCK OEM MOS plate an explanation of the loads imparted upon the fasteners is required. When the handgun is fired, the recoil generates a lateral load in the direction of the slide's movement. This load is transferred through to the fasteners connecting the plate and optic. The GLOCK OEM plate does not maintain the optic in stasis thereby imparting dynamic lateral loads upon the fasteners at the fastener shear plane. These loads cannot be resisted by the fasteners indefinitely and may result in mounting failure wherein the fastener shears at the shear plane.

Forward Controls Design's solution is to maintain the optic in a static position relative to the lateral load path by adding fore and aft recoil lugs about the optic. The front lug resists the dynamic load imparted by the slide inertia during the slide's rearward travel (ejection cycle) while the rear lug resists the dynamic load imparted by the slide inertia during the slide's forward travel (feed cycle). Therefore, OPF-G, RMR maintains the optic in a static position relative to the fasteners and thereby effectively reduces (if not deletes) the dynamic lateral load imparted upon the fasteners at the fastener shear plane.

For the new M17/M18 and SIG P320 with the Delta Point Pro cut, we're proud to offer OPF-M17, ACRO, RSD (rear sight dovetail).

OPF-M17, ACRO, RSD is not compatible with MIL issued M17/M18, it only works with the civilian version of M17/M18.

OPF-M17, ACRO, RSD is only guaranteed to work with Aimpoint ACRO P1 and P2, and Steiner's MPS. We have not tested it with the cheap Chicom sights under different guises from various companies that purportedly use the ACRO footprint. We neither endorse, nor support their use on OPF-M17, ACRO, RSD. For defense and duty, we also do not recommend P2 copies.

Machined in 4140 steel and black oxide coated, OPF-M17, ACRO, RSD is a new member of our OPF (Optics Platform, Forward Controls) line. We again eschew aluminum for this application, and continue to use steel as other OPF plates, we prefer steel plates for steel screws. 4140 steel costs more and takes longer to machine, we use it extensively on other products. We do not deem light weight to be of particular use in this application, but consider reliability and durability far more useful and important qualities.

OPF-M17, ACRO, RSD is a drop in adapter for superb Aimpoint ACRO sights. The removal of the P320, M17/M18 sight plate cover isn't as straight forward as the Glock MOS, please follow this link for step by step instructions: https://youtu.be/00g-Wpr8tMw

We will stress the importance of holding the LCI (loaded chamber indicator) with your finger or a piece of tape while removing the plate from the slide, the LCI spring is very small and fragile, and easily damaged. No need to make this avoidable $5 mistake as we did.

We don't like rebranding, but do make exceptions when the products in question are outstanding, and we share the same values as the companies that make them. We've known Tangodown and its folks for a long time, we carry Tangodown products, and are proud to be able to put our logo on the SSM-03 and make it OPF-M17, ACRO RSD.

OPF-M17, ACRO, RSD is precision machined from 4140 steel, and QPQ coated. Aimpoint ACRO P1/P2 requires the plates to adhere to Aimpoint ACRO TDP with tight tolerances, OPF-M17, ACRO, RSD has proven to be the best choice among professional users.

OPF-M17-ACRO, RSD is shipped with two M4 0.7mm x 6mm (torque value: 25 in·lb) and a packet of VC-3. P1/P2 torque value is 26 in·lb. MPS is 18 in·lb

Proudly designed and made in the USA.

NOTE: OPF-M17, ACRO, RSD is NOT compatible with MIL issued M17/M18.

Truglo P320 backup sights made specifically for Tangodown/FCD plates. The rear sight dovetail is made for commonly available Glock rear sights, do not use/force a SIG rear sight into the dovetail, doing so will damage the dovetail of the plate.


When in doubt, be sure your slide has the groove as shown below, none of our plates will work without it:

OPF-M17, ACRO, RSD is compatible with P320 X-Five Legion, Legion Carry, and DP Cut.

It is not compatible with P320 Pro Cut, P320 sub compact, X Carry, AXG, Spectre Comp, and RX, P320 Max, P320 Grayguns.


NOTE:
We have switched the plate to slide screws from Allen to Torx (T20). T20 screws do not sit flush with the plate, this is normal. We also supply Allen head screws that will sit flush for MPS users.


We will soon stop including the L keys with all OPF products, L keys will become optional, we strongly suggest a proper torque wrench to impart the correct torque value.

We again eschew aluminum for this application, and continue to use steel as other OPF plates, we prefer steel plates for steel screws. 4140 steel costs more and takes longer to machine, we use it extensively on other products. We do not deem light weight to be of particular use in this application, but consider reliability and durability far more useful and important qualities.

OPF-M17, ACRO is a drop in adapter for superb Aimpoint ACRO sights. The removal of the P320, M17/M18 sight plate cover isn't as straight forward as the Glock MOS, please follow this link for step by step instructions: https://youtu.be/00g-Wpr8tMw

We will stress the importance of holding the LCI (loaded chamber indicator) with your finger or a piece of tape while removing the plate from the slide, the LCI spring is very small and fragile, and easily damaged.

OPF-M17, ACRO is identical to the Tangodown SSM-01. We don't like rebranding, but do make exceptions when the products in question are outstanding, and we share the same values as the companies that make them. We've known Tangodown and its folks for a long time, we carry Tangodown products, and are proud to be able to put our logo on the SSM-02, and make it OPF-M17, ACRO.

OPF-M17, ACRO is precision machined from 4140 steel, and QPQ coated. Aimpoint ACRO P1/P2 requires the plates to adhere to Aimpoint ACRO TDP with tight tolerances, OPF-M17, ACRO has proven to be the best choice among professional users.

OPF-M17-ACRO is shipped with two M4 0.7mm x 6mm (torque value: 20 in·lb) and a packet of VC-3.

Torque value for ACRO P1/P2 mounting screw: 26 in·lb. For Steiner MPS, 18 in·lb. (updated by Steiner in 2024)

Proudly designed and made in the USA.

NOTE:

NOTE: OPF-M17, ACRO is compatible with MIL issued M17/M18.

Confused by the myriad of P320 models and slides? You're not alone, never have we seen so many variations for a single model. The compatibility list will continue to be updated as SIG releases yet more P320 models and slides.

Incompatible:
RX
Xray
R2
P320 Spectre Comp
P320 RXP
P320 Max
P320 XCarry
P320 AXG (if the front of the optics cut is straight)

Compatible:
Civilian M17/M18
Compact
XCompact
Legion
Romeo1 Pro Cut
DPP Pro Cut
Pro Cut
P320 AXG (if the front of the optics cut is curved)

When in doubt, be sure your slide has the groove as shown below:





As SIG continues to make changes that make sense only to SIG, but make parts made for previous models incompatible, do note that if the cut in front of the optics pocket is straight, it will not work with our plate.



NOTE:
We have switched the plate to slide screws from Allen to Torx (T20). T20 screws do not sit flush with the plate, this is normal. We also supply Allen head screws that will sit flush for MPS users.


We will soon stop including the L keys with all OPF products, L keys will become optional, we strongly suggest a proper torque wrench to impart the correct torque value.

For lower co-witness backup sights, Night Fission offers them, make sure the 455-440 blade height option is selected. https://www.nightfision.com/product/night-fision-optics-ready-stealth-series-for-sig-sauer

These T15 6-32 x 3/8 screws are the same US made screws we use on our OPF-G, RMR. Made in alloy steel, they are rated for 140,000 psi, these screws are immensely strong. The Torx head offers superior protection against stripping.

For OPF, RMR, the strength of the sight to plate is not as important, as the design tightly cradles the sight on the plate, in between the front and rear recoil lugs/fences. Sight to plate screws only need to what they're meant to do, that is to keep the sight planted on the plate, and not what they aren't designed or made to do, which is to handle the G force in recoil. Nevertheless, we over build for strength, nobody asks for weaker screws.

Shipped with 4 screws (from May of 2023), with a small packet (sufficient for multiple applications if sealed properly). The M3 0.5 x 6mm plate to slide (rated for 140,000psi) screws are optional.

Plate to slide torque value: 13in/lb
Sight to plate torque value: 13in/lb


VC-3 Instructions can be found here: https://www.vibra-tite.com/wp-content/uploads/213_tds.pdf
Vibra-tite also provides a video on the application of VC-3: https://www.vibra-tite.com/portfolio-items/vc-3-threadmate-overview-video/


Why do screws cost $9.50 (and more when USPS raises its rates again)?

Screws aren't expensive, a Vibra-tite VC-3 packet costs nearly $1 each, but these aren't the biggest factors for the relative high cost, shipping is. We can't ship screws in USPS letter as the screws invariably break through the thin envelope, and the VC-3 packet can be crushed and leak, they must be shipped via USPS or UPS large package / thick envelope that can range from $6 to $8.

The replacement screws we have on our site are mostly provided as a service, there is little to no profit for us. Agency armorers, please contact us re: obtaining or ordering the screws in bulk.

Sight-to-plate, and sight-to-slide screws are consumables in a high stress, high G, and unforgiving environments, as is the case in this application. Threads are under tension when they're torqued to spec, more so when users over torque them. Federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies rarely re-use screws, and armorers replace them either after each battery change (with RMR) or on a scheduled basis.

]]> The RMR Type 2 is designed with a patented housing shape that absorbs impact and diverts stress away from the lens to increase durability. It also offers redesigned and upgraded electronics that have been proven to perform when mounted on slide ride pistols and other small arms. It’s suitable for military, law enforcement, concealed carry self-defense, target shooting, and hunting applications. The RMR® Type 2 Adjustable LED sight puts the illumination control in the user’s hands. Easy-to-use buttons on the sides of the optic allow the user to adjust the illumination brightness, toggle between manual and automatic modes, and power down the RMR for storage. The automatic mode functions the same as the LED RMR version. If a manual mode has been chosen, the RMR will remain in manual mode for 16.5 hours following the last push of a button. After 16.5 hours, the optic will default back to the automatic mode so that the RMR will be ready for your next mission or task. All RMR Type 2 Adjustable LED sights are compatible with night vision devices, with the 3.25 dot size being the most popular. The user can also lock out the buttons so that the RMR functions in automatic mode only. This ensures that inadvertent button pushes do not cause a loss of aiming solution. The 6.5 MOA dot in the RM07 gives the user the biggest dot available in our LED and Adjustable LED operated models. The bigger dot size gives the user the ability to locate the dot quickly which is ideal for close quarter engagements, or is a great solution for those who have vision problems.

]]> OPF-G, DPP will only fit GLOCK MOS slides it is not an adapter that converts an RMR footprint to a DPP footprint. For more info: please visit this link: FCD DPP plates compatibility with Vortex Defender ST and XT

OPF-G, DPP only fits Glock MOS, not the LE only MOS3 (DPP), MOS5 (RMR), MOS6 (Holosun 509T) and MOS7 (ACRO).

Starting from September of 2024, OPF-G, DPP will come with the M3 0.5 x 6mm plate to slide screws, but will no longer come with the M4 0..7 x 15.8mm DPP sight to plate screws, they will be optional (we'll offer them at our cost.) Delta Point Pro already comes with sight to plate screws, inclusion of these screws is unnecessary.

Do not use OPF-G, DPP with Holoson SCS320, it will damage the plate. OPF-G, DPP is not compatible with SIG Romeo X Pro (lug holes are too shallow on the X Pro).

Vortex Defender comes with 2 sets of M4 screws, a longer pair at 11mm, and a shorter pair at 9.8mm. We have found the 9.8mm screws at times are 9.87mm, and this will cause the screws to protrude under the plate, the plate will bend during installation. Be sure to check your screw lengths before using them.

GLOCKOPF-G, DPP is compatible with GLOCK G17, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 26, 34, 40, 45, 47, 49. G40 (10mm) uses Set 02 plates that are slightly wider, while OPF-G, DPP still works with it, it will not completely fill the MOS cut's width.

OPF-G, DPP is compatible with the Vortex Defender ST, XT, XL and EOTech EFLX as well. Do note DPP sight screws to plates are longer, if you are buying OPF-G, DPP for use with EFLX, be sure to use the screws that came with your EFLX sight. DO NOT use DPP sight to plate screws with EFLX.

OPF-G, DPP (Optics Platform, Forward Controls, Delta Point Pro) is the latest member of the OPF line. OPF-G, DPP uses the same proven design of the OPF-G, RMR to keep the Delta Point Pro immobile, the simplest and most effective way to prevent sight to plate mounting screws from loosening and shearing.

While Leupold's Delta Point Pro uses 4 recoil lugs (twice as that of the RMR's) and beefier mounting screws, the challenges of keeping the sight on the plate without loosening or shearing the sight to plate screws are not very different from those of the RMR. OPF-G, DPP has a front and rear fence, the tight tolerances of the plate to slide, and sight to plate insures minimum movement along the bore in recoil.


OPF-G, DPP ships with 2 plate to slide screws (M3 0.5mm x 6mm), 2 Delta Point Pro screws M4 .7x15.8mm (from September 2024, sight to plate screws will be optional as they already come with the DPP) and a packet of VC3 Vibra-tite. A torque wrench is necessary to properly install both the plate to slide, and sight to plate screws.

Torque value:
Plate to slide: 13in/lb
Sight to plate: 25in/lb

Billet machined in 4140, hat treated and black nitride coated.

Due to the DPP's rather tall height, it requires equally tall backup sights for lower 1/3 co-witnessing. Ameriglo's GL-808 provides lower 1/3 co-witness, our BIS, 43X will also work: https://www.forwardcontrolsdesign.com/buis-g43x48.html

OPF-G, DPP is a collaboration between Tangodown and FCD. Proudly designed and made in the USA.

NOTE:
OPF-G, EFLX is compatible with the Leupold's Delta Point Pro. If the plate engraving says DPP only, it is the same plate we use for both DPP and EFLX.DPP sight to plates are longer, while EFLX uses shorter screws.

If you attempt to torque the DPP screws in with an EFLX installed, you can bend or break the plate. Do not use DPP sight to plate screws if you have and EFLX.

OPF-G, RMRcc is designed for and compatible with G17, G19 G20, G22, G23, G26, G34, G40, G45 and G47, not the slim line GLOCK 43x and 48.

OPF-G, RMRcc (Optics Platform, Forward Controls, RMRcc) is the latest member of the OPF line. OPF-G, RMRcc uses the same proven design of the OPF-G, RMR to keep the RMRcc immobile, the simplest and most effective way to prevent sight to plate mounting screws from loosening and shearing.

RMRcc has its own footprint. Gone are the two lug holes in front, these are replaced by two larger diameter threaded posts (bosses) through which the sight to mount/plate screws are installed. The sight to mount/plate screws are also significantly strengthened, though with the OPF-G, RMRcc design that holds the sight immobile on the plate, the larger diameter and stronger screws aren't as important, we always welcome screws that are less likely to strip.

RMRcc's smaller footprint (same length, but narrower and shorter than the RMR) means the sight no longer overhangs the slide. For those that conceal carry a full sized GLOCK, we believe they'll come to appreciate the reduction in width, we like it a lot more than we thought we would.

OPF-G, RMRcc ships with a T10 wrench, 2 plate to slide screws (M3-0.5mm x 6mm), 2 sight to plate screws (T10 5-40 x 1/4 ), and a packet of VC-3. The RMRcc mounting screws that ship with the RMRcc can also be used with OPF-G, RMRcc.

A torque wrench is required to properly torque the plate to slide, and sight to plate screws.

Torque value:
Plate to slide: 13 in/lb.
Sight to plate: 18 in/lb.

OPF-G43x/48, RMR (Optics Platform, Forward Controls, G43x/48, RMR) is the latest member of the OPF line. G43x and G48 MOS slides are designed for direct mounting of the Shield RMSc sight. Trijicon's RMR is longer and wider, and requires an adapter plate which also necessarily raises the mounting surface in order to mount an RMR.

With the OPF-G43x/48, RMR, we didn't merely raise the mounting surface to provide a platform for the RMR. As RMR is longer than the G43X/48 MOS cut, the sight overhangs on the slide. We provide not only lugs, but also a front recoil fence that together with the recoil lugs, holds the sight immobile before the sight to plate screws are installed and torqued to specified value of 12 to 135in/lb.

OPF-G43X/48 ships with 2 plate to slide screws (M4-0.7mmx9mm), 4 sight to plate screws (T15 6-32x3/8 ), and a packet of VC-3.

OPF-G43X/48, RMR has a huge lightening cut, but it's invisible when the plate is installed and in use. There's a vast (relatively speaking) area under the plate that doesn't do anything except taking up weight, so it's removed.



A torque wrench is required to properly torque the plate to slide, and sight to plate screws.

Torque value:
Plate to slide: 20 to 25 in·lbs.
Sight to plate: 12-15 in·lbs..

Weight: 1.21oz
Material: 4140 steel, black nitrided

Vibra-tite VC-3 is included. Instructions can be found here: https://www.vibra-tite.com/wp-content/uploads/213_tds.pdf
Vibra-tite also provides a video on the application of VC-3: https://www.vibra-tite.com/portfolio-items/vc-3-threadmate-overview-video/

Tenior's G43X and 48 holsters are compatible with the G43X and 48 with the OPF-G43X/48, RMR, and Ameriglo GL-527 (0.45 front sight) and GL-526 (0.434 front sight), VELO5 and VELO LUX for AIWB https://tenicor.com/search?q=43x

PHLster Skeleton https://www.phlsterholsters.com/shop/phlster-skeleton-holster/ and Pro series holsters https://www.phlsterholsters.com/shop/phlster-pro-holster/ are also compatible.

TXC Holsters X1 also works very well: https://txcholsters.com/collections/holsters

For lower 1/3 co-witness, we recommend sight sets with at least 0.450" front, and 0.544" rear, the tip of the sights are low in the RMR's window, such as BIS, 43x/48.
Note that BIS, 43X/48 are not tall enough for RMR HD and RCR.
GL-808 (0.500" front sight) is taller and also compatible, GL-808 is necessary for RMR HD and RCR. GL-808 is slightly taller and also suitable, GL-808's taller sights are required for RMR HD and RCR. If GL808 is used, be sure to install the plate first, and rear sight last.

We have collaborated with the wonderful folks at Ameriglo, and they have produced a version of GL-527 for us: BIS, G43x/48 https://www.forwardcontrolsdesign.com/buis-g43x48.html BUIS, 43x/48 is available with or without a front tritium dot, we suggest the all black BIS-43X/48 (without the tritium), as RMR is slightly elevated on OPF-G43x/48, RMR, the tritium dot is partially obscured on the bottom.

NOTE:
We will soon stop including the L keys with all OPF products, L keys will become optional, we strongly suggest a proper torque wrench to impart the correct torque value.

]]> We have chosen to carry Ameriglo backup sights for Glocks, for their quality and variety of options. These tall suppressor sight combination sets provide an elevated sight picture, able to co-witness with slide-mounted miniature red dot optics and suppressors.

The Ameriglo sights we have chosen to offer are compatible with our OPF (Optics Platform, FCD) line of Glock MOS compatible plates (Optics Platform, FCD), includes OPF-G, RMR, OPF-G, RMRcc, and OPF-G43X/48, RMRcc.

A front sight height of 0.315 is sufficient to provide lower 1/3 co-witnessing for RMR, a front sight of 0.365 also works, it's slightly taller, and takes up more space in the sight window/picture. If the sights have tritium, a front sight height of 0.365 is recommended. If the sights do not have tritium, 0.315 front sight height is usable.

Without tritium or white dots, sight sets with a front sight height of 0.315 are usable, they're lower in P1/P2's sight window. GL-470 with its 0.349" is also suitable With tritium or white dots, sight sets with 0.365 front sight height would be necessary.


GL-411, fits all Glock models, tritium front, black flat rear sight. Front sight height 0.315", rear sight height 0.394".
GL-429, fits all Glock models, no tritium. Front sight height 0.315", rear sight height 0.394".
GL-YTU, fits all Glock models, yellow tritium front, no tritium, U notch rear sight. Front sight height is 0.315", rear sight height is 0.394". Note this is made by Ameriglo but does not come in Ameriglo retail packaging. GL-YTU has a soft edges, serrated rear sight with a U shaped notch.

]]> NOTE:
* Standard Lens Guard does not have a front polycarbonate lens. Only Lens Guard LE (AALGS-001LE) has a polycarbonate front lens. Lens Guard LE was developed and made by LE request for training with force on force Simunition where Simunition projectiles can fracture the P2's lens. The protective polycarbonate lens is used for shattering resistance, not preventing scratches. If miniscule scratches develop, they do not affect functionality as they're very difficult to see, Lensguard LE with polycarbonate lens should only be cleaned with a microfiber cloth or very soft cloth. If the polycarbonate lens is scratched, it is not covered under warranty and not eligible for refund or exchange. Lensguard LE has a very specific function, a P2's lens is well protected by the standard Lens Guard in most use cases.

* Lens Guard fits both ends of the P2, but it was designed to be used in front. While it fits the slot in the back of the P2, having one installed in the rear will make it unable to seat properly on some slides.

* Lens Guard does NOT work on ACRO P1. The P2 Lens Guard works best on OEM ‘Optic Ready’ systems utilizing mount plates. Some aftermarket ‘Direct Cut’ slides may allow P2 optic to sit deep in the slide, with no clearance in front of P2. That will prevent from the P2 Lens Guard from seating properly. A Direct Cut P2 Lens Guard model is coming soon.

How does one improve on the superb Aimpoint ACRO P2? The only gripe some users have is the front sacrificial lens is almost flush with the sight's front edge, when the P2 is used to rack the slide, the lens can be damaged.

The Lens Guard is a brilliantly simple solution. Machined from billet aluminum, it slides down from the top of the sight using the groove already present on the P2, and is secured by two set screws. The Lens Guard provides standoff distance between the object against which the P2 is pushed when the sight is used to rack the slide.

The Aimpoint® ACRO® P2 is rapidly becoming the ‘go-to’ red dot optic for professional working pistols. The rugged closed-emitter design and aerospace grade aluminum case has proven to take a beating that sidelines competitors. That said, the front lens is front and center for taking potential damaging impact. The good news is, it is easily replaced at minimal charge. The bad news, it has to go back to the factory for that service. You can avoid the hassle and protect your expensive red dot with the P2 Lens Guard.

Precision CNC machined aerospace grade aluminum frame, with Type III hard coat anodize, easily attaches in seconds to your P2 with provided stainless-steel set screws. The Lens Guard also makes a great ‘slide racker’, without leaving hand prints on your P2 front lens.

The P2 Lens Guard works best on OEM ‘Optic Ready’ systems utilizing mount plates. Some aftermarket ‘Direct Cut’ slides may allow P2 optic to sit deep in the slide, with no clearance in front of P2. That will prevent from the P2 Lens Guard from seating properly. A Direct Cut P2 Lens Guard model is coming soon.

Note: The P2 Lens Guard does NOT fit the ACRO® P1.

P2 Lens Guard fasteners are 2-56 in size. This means VERY SMALL! We recommend just finger tight only on these screws. In extreme applications, use only the weakest available grade of thread locker, such as Loctite 222 purple.
Features:

• Easily attaches with supplied stainless- steel fasteners and wrench

• Type III Hard Coat Anodize

• 6061 T6 CNC machined frame provides maximum P2 front lens protection

Colors available: Black Only

Important Note:

* P2 Lens Guard for milled slide will not work on Walther PDP with the factory ACRO cut.

* P2 Lens Guard fasteners are VERY SMALL! We recommend just finger tight only on these screws. In extreme applications, use only the weakest available grade of thread locker.

* For P2 Lens Guard LE (with polycarbonate lens in front), do not use Loctite, only use a small amount of VC-3 (included). Hand tight the screws only, do not over tighten.

* Lens Guard LE was developed by made for LE request for use when training with Simunition. Polycarbonate lens is used here for its resistance to shattering but can scratch easily, Lensguard LE with polycarbonate lens should only be cleaned with a microfiber cloth or very soft cloth. If scratches are present, Lensguard LE function is not affected as they're very difficult to see.

]]> NOTE:
Please confirm your PDP version before buying the plate, v1 and v2 plates are not interchangeable.

From October of 2023, we've begun to transition T10 sight to plate screws to T15.

Trijicon's new RCR and RMR HD are both compatible with OPF-PDP, RMR. If you have an RCR, you must use the capstan screws that came with the RCR. If your RMR, RMR HD, and SRO come with sight to plate 6-32 screws, be sure to only use the 3/8" screws, do not use longer 1/2: screws.

V2 PDP slides have a longer optics cut, the serial numbers start with FDL9203, FDM0001, FDN3124). V1 PDP optics cut is 1.85" at the longest, while v2 cut is 1.93 at the longest. Please be sure to check your serial number and/or measure the optics cut before choosing the correct plate.



OPF-PDP v2, RMR is compatible with PDP-F. V1 plate is NOT compatible with PDP-F.

Based on our successful GLOCK MOS compatible plate design, OPF-PDP, RMR is made for the superb Walther PDP and Trijicon RMR.

Featuring the same tight tolerances and design that hold the sight immobile on the plate, OPF-PDP, RMR was created to satisfy LE and defensive carry users demand for an RMR plate that we've created for GLOCK MOS. We did have some reservations, for we're a small company, and only choose to take on projects where we can truly bring improvement to the platform, it is not our goal to create a plate for every pistol that can accept one, nor every optic that exists.

Below is applicable to PDP v1 only. PDP v2 has lugs and means to prevent the plate and optic on top from moving laterally and rotating.

For the Walther PDP, we came across challenges we didn't encounter with the GLOCK MOS, namely, the PDP optics cut lacks an anti-shift, anti-rotation mechanism found on the GLOCKMOS. The plate can't move along the bore much due to its being enclosed in the pocket, but it is possible to rotate it, and shift it laterally before the screws are installed.

OPF-PDP, RMR is machined with the same attention to detail and tight tolerances as other plates in the OPF family of products, this now comes into play as a factor for mitigating rotation of the plate in the PDP's optics cut. The tight tolerance of the plate means it can't be easily rotated before the plate to slide screws are installed. This is crucial, as the small plate to slide screws aren't recoil lugs, and perform poorly as such, it'd be wishful thinking to believe the screws can perform anti-rotation, anti-shift functions on their own.

Machined from solid 1018 steel and black nitride treated. As with any and all OPF line of optics plates, OPF-PDP, RMR is a solid state design with no moving parts.

OPF-PDP, RMR does not require a sealing plate for RMR.

Plate to slide torque value: 13in/lb
Sight to plate torque value: 13 to 15 in/lb

Ameriglo GL-811 or GL-506 will work with OPF-DPP, RMR and provide lower 1/3 co-witness.

Proudly designed in Texas, and made in ID, USA.



NOTE:
Trijicon's new RCR and RMR HD are both compatible with OPF-PDP, RMR. If you have an RCR, you must use the capstan screws that came with the RCR.

The v2 PDP RMR plate seconds in the drop down menu can have a slight gap under sights with an enclosed bottom such as RMR HD and SRO, this is cosmetic in nature and does not affect functionality and reliability. Some sights with a sealed bottom aren't 100% flat, when placed on a flat surface, the gap will be visible. This too, is only cosmetic only, and not an issue.

Below are two sights that are not 100% on the bottom. Top: SIG Romeo2. Bottom: Trijicn SRO. Both are on top of an iPad and show a slight gap.

OPF-509T, RMR is designed to have a tight fit with the slide. Due to tolerances of the slide and plate, the fit can be rather snug, it's a good thing. If your plate is very tight in the pocket, instructions on how to install a tight plate can be found here: OPF-FN509, RMR plate installation


OPF-FN509T, RMR is a solid state (one piece), steel plate designed for the FN 509 series, FN 545, and 510. OPF-FN509T, RMR is not compatible with 502 and Reflex.

LAPD is perhaps the largest LE agency that adopted and authorizes the FN 509 Tactical, the authorized version is FN 509 MRD-LE. We wanted to see if we can improve on what came with the gun.

OPF-FN09T, RMR is a one piece, billet machined plate for RMR/SRO, it is not guaranteed to work with non-Trijicon sights that have the RMR footprint. The way FN has designed the optics plate for the 509 Tactical is rather unusual to us, it consists of a MIM or cast steel plate with lugs for the RMR, and a larger plastic piece sans any lugs or means to prevent the sight from moving laterally. This isn't a criticism for the FN design, we prefer a solid state design without moving parts.

OPF-FN509T, RMR is designed and made like other OPF plates that came before, with tight tolerances between the plate and slide, and between the optic and plate. Factory FN 509 Tactical sights remain compatible with OPF-FN509T, RMR and provide lower 1/3 co-witnessing.

OPF-FN509T, RMR includes the adapter plate, two 6-40 x 1/2 T10 screws (same spec as the plates/screws packet included in the 509 Tactical, the FN supplied screws also work on OPF-509T, RMR plate), and a packet of VC-3 thread locker. A proper torque wrench is required to impart the correct torque value to the mounting screws.

Torque value for the 6-40 x 1/2 T10 screws is 12 to 13 in lbs.

Proudly designed and made in the USA.

BIS 43X/48 (Backup Iron Sight, 43X/G48)

Do not use BIS 43X/48 with Holosun EPS, they're too tall and not made for Holosun sights. BIS 43X/G48 are suitable only for FCD G434X/G48 plates for RMRcc and RMR.

BIS 43X/48 (Backup Iron Sight, 43X/G48) is a collaboration between Ameriglo and FCD. Specifically made for Glock G43X and G48, these sights are based on the superb Ameriglo GL-527 with a front sight height of 0.450", and a rear sight height of 0.554", this sight sets provide lower 1/3 co-witness with the Trijicon RMRcc when used with our OPF-G43X/43, RMRcc on GLOCK's G43X and G48.

BIS, 43X/48 consists of the following:
* Black front sight and serrated rear.
* Green tritium with white outline front, and black serrated rear
* Green tritium with white outline front, and serrated rear with green tritium.

BIS, 43X/48 is slightly different from GL-527 on which it's based. These FCD particular changes are:

* Option of green tritium, white outline option for the front sight.

* Front sight back strap angle is steeper (25 degrees on the serrated, non-tritium front sight, 20 degrees on non-serrated, tritium front sight) to mitigate snagging when the pistol is drawn from and out of the holster where it's likely to encounter clothing, and the front sight's top corners are softened.

* Rear sight is horizontally serrated.

Designed and made in the USA. Special thanks to the professionals at Ameriglo https://ameriglo.com/ that made this project possible, we're grateful for their willingness to work with a small outfit like us for our shared customers / users. GLOCK's G43X/49 with RMRcc is approved by many agencies, most of which require red dot pistols be equipped with metallic, co-witnessing backup sights for both on and off duty use. BIS, G43X/48 was created with them in mind.

BIS, 43X/48 with RMRcc and OPF-G43X/48, RMRcc plate.

BIS, 43X/48 also works with Leupold Delta Point Pro mounted on OPF-G, DPP as shown below:
NOTE:
BIS, 43X/48 is compatible with OPF-G, DPP (Delta Point Pro) as well, the sights are lower 1/5 in DPP's window. For DPP, we recommend Ameriglo's GL-808 with 0.5" front sight height.

If you don't have a sight pusher or the equipment to install rear sights, please bring it to a qualified and competent gunsmith to perform the installation. It's not uncommon to have to fit the rear sight to the dovetail, a competent gunsmith should be well familiar with the reason and method. We've seen more than enough expensive muzzle devices ruined by "gunsmiths" that used a screw driver to install them instead of a torque wrench, and hand tightened optics plate screws when a torque value is clearly noted in multiple places.

Rather than being loose (easy to install), we prefer the sights be tight, so it won't be knocked off zero easily. Tolerances of the dovetail and sights also come into play, which results in some being easier, while others are harder to install. A qualified gunsmith can deal with these easily.

Tenior's G43X and 48 holsters are compatible with the G43X and 48 with the OPF-G43X/48, RMRcc, and Ameriglo GL-527 (0.45 front sight) and GL-526 (0.434 front sight) https://tenicor.com/collections/velo-for-glock/products/velo4-aiwb-holster-for-glock

]]> OPF-S, RMR requires a Trijicon or aftermarket RMR sealing plate.

Trijicon's new RCR and RMR HD are both compatible with OPF-S RMR. If you have an RCR, you must use the capstan screws that came with the RCR.

From October of 2023, we've begun to transition T10 sight to plate screws to T15.

OPF-S, RMR is not compatible with the Staccato HD series pistols, and Staccato pistols with the older Duo optics cut, only with the DPO cut.

OPF-S, RMR (Optics Platform, Staccato, RMR) is designed for optics ready Staccato P, C, C2, CS with the factory or aftermarket 0.265 and 0.285 front sight. OPF-S, RMR features a dovetail compatible with the steel rear sight we designed and make for OPF-S, RMR and OPF-S, ACRO.

Precision milled from a solid block of 4140 and nitride coated, OPF-S, RMR is a solid state plate sans moving parts. We have taken steps to make the plate as light as possible, there is a rather significant lightening cut on the plate, which necessitates the use of a sealer plate for Trijicon RMR.

Plate to slide M4 0.7 x 8mm torque value: 20 to 25 in/lb
Sight to plate 6-32 x 3/8 torque value: 13 in/lb

Proudly designed and made in the USA.

NOTE:

* OPF-S, RMR requires a Trijicon or aftermarket RMR sealing plate.

NOTE:
When ordering the front sight, please measure the front sight and determine the height (measured from the top of the slide) and order the correct height for the front sight. We are aware some models may have taller sights than the model we used for development.


* OPF-S, RMR's rear sight dovetail is compatible with Staccato 2011 DP03 Optics Mount System as shown here https://staccato2011.com/products/dawson-precision-optic-system-tactical-kit-for-trijicon-rmr-sro/.

If your DPO plate and rear sight looks like this, this rear sight will NOT work with OPF-S, RMR's dovetail.


NOTE:

* Trijicon's new RCR and RMR HD are both compatible with OPF-S, RMR.

* We will soon stop including the L keys with all OPF products, L keys will become optional, we strongly suggest a proper torque wrench to impart the correct torque value.

Featuring the same tight tolerances and design that hold the sight immobile on the plate. We did have some reservations, for we're a small company, and only choose to take on projects where we can truly bring improvement to the platform, it is not our goal to create a plate for every pistol that can accept one, nor every optic that exists.

It is compatible with the older generation of P365X, where the optics plate and rear sight are integrated:



Given's SIG's penchant for changing things with abandon and no apparent reasons, here's another thing to look out for.


Please remove the slide's optics cut cover plate, and ensure the slot is present. OPF-P365X, RMRcc has an oval shaped indexer that mates with the slot on the slide, but some P365X slides do not have this feature.

Your slide must have the slot in the center as shown below:


If the slide does not have the center slot as shown below, OPF-P365X, RMRcc will need to have the oval shaped indexer removed in order to fully seat in the pocket.




OPF-P365X, RMRcc is designed and made for SIG Sauer P365X/P365XL, and Trijicon's RMRcc.

OPF-P365X, RMRcc rear sight dovetail is cut for popular Glock rear sights. We worked with Ameriglo to bring forth a set of front and rear sights that provide lower 1/3 co-witness with RMRcc, BIS, P365 should be available in October, 2022.

Machined in 4140 steel, and black oxide coated. We don't black nitride OPF-P365X, RMRcc due to the thin plate extension over the slide, nitride would make it brittle.

SIG P365X and P365XL have a similar optics plate/rear sight design as the M17/M18, where the rear sight and optics plate are integrated, which means if the user removes the optics late, the rear sight is also removed, he can now use a red dot sight but without the rear sight.

Due to the design confines of the P365X, OPF-P365X, RMRcc has to be made rather tall, as it not only has to bring a flat mounting surface for the RMRcc, it also has to have adequate thickness for a rear sight dovetail.

BIS, P365X's front sight is 0.510 over the top of the P365X slide.

For defense and duty, we also do not recommend P2 clones/copies.

Due to the countersink length of the 6-32 screws, the plate must be of sufficient thickness to allow the 6-32 screws to sit flush, or below flush. The only way to reduce the installed height of the ACRO is to make the dovetail section of the ACRO plate slower and out of spec, with predictable results (sights moving along the bore either immediately, or after a few hundred rounds, sights flying off the plate), we're unwilling to do that. Factory sights are too low for OPF-SW, ACRO. If you need backup sights, we offer Night Fision sights and Truglo SW-BUIS-WDO-NT (no tritium).

Is your ACRO plate in spec? Below is a part of the Aimpoint TDP (in mm). In inch, it's 0.106 +0.012/-0.000.


Precision machined in 4140 and black nitride coated, OPF-SW, ACRO is the latest collaboration between Tangodown and Forward Controls.


Continuing the tradition of reliable duty grade, precision machined steel optics interface plates in both companies' line up, OPF-SW, ACRO is made for Smith & Wesson M&P CORE 2.0 and M2.0 pistols.

For optics interface plates, things that matter: tolerances, material, and a means to keep the sight immobile, or deny it movement in recoil.

Tight tolerances reduce the plate's movement on the slide, and the sight's movement on the plate, but that alone sometimes isn't enough. For older sights like RMR that have fairly loose tolerances, the fences on our plate are designed to cradle it and hold it immobile. Newer sights like DPP and RMRcc don't need the fences, we still incorporate them whenever possible.

Material matters. For optics interface plates, Tangodown and we only use steel, all of our plates are military/duty grade.

Several Scalaworks mounts have been loose on the PMA, and can't be tightened enough to fit snug. Do not use Scalarworks mounts on PMA.

Below is an accurate view of an MRD mounted on PMA with a 4x32 ACOG (TA31ECOS):


TA02 shown with an RMR mounted a 0.458" tall mount (measured from the bottom to top of the RMR mount) and PMA.


PMA (Parallel Mount, ACOG) is an offset Picatinny mount designed for use in conjunction with Trijicon 4x32 ACOGs. It is not an ACOG mount.

PMA is a spin off that grew out of the side folding backup sights project (think Bren Gun offset sights). Side folding offsets sights would be costly to produce, a modern RDS would be faster and easier to use, and the parallel mount was created to do just that.

LPVO version of the Parallel Mount is PML, it is lower and does not have a Picatinny rail to reduce mounted MRDS height.

The red dot mounting, 5 slot Picatinny interface runs parallel to the rails on the handguard and upper, and is elevated to provide clearance for red dot mounts, and bring the red dot to eye level of the shooter.

PMA can be mounted on the upper receiver, or a railed hand guard with available Picatinny rails at 12 o'clock, it can be mounted with the cantilevered Picatinny rails on the left or right of the weapon. PMA's MRDS mounting Picatinny rails have 5 slots, sufficient for almost all MRDS Picatinny mounts.

A MRDS thus mounted is fast to use that takes but a slight shift (less than an inch) of the user's head to acquire the dot. Optionally, the user can choose to rotate a carbine or rifle with MRDS mounted on PMA, but no longer is necessary to rotate the weapon 45 degrees, PMA only needs 10 degrees of rotation.

Do note that PMA isn't a 45 degrees offset mount, the way it's mounted and used is different. A red dot sight mounted on the PMA should be INBOARD, not OUTBOARD like a 45 degrees offset mount.

When mounted on the outboard side of the handguard, PMA behaves like an angled offset mount, but does not require as much canting as a 45 degrees mount.

ELCAN DR Spectre shown with the PMA and Aimpoint P2 mounted on the right side.

For instance:
If you're a right hand shooter, PMA should be mounted with the offset/cantilevered red dot sight on the left side.
If you're a left hand shooter, PMA should be mounted with the offset/cantilevered red dot sight on the right side.

PMA is over built in the way of strength, it is machined from a solid block of 7075 aluminum and Type III hard coat anodized, its Picatinny clamp is machined in 4140 steel and black zinc coated, its screw holes have helical lining. If a rifle with PMA and MRDS installed is dropped on the side where PMA is mounted, PMA (not the MRDS) takes the brunt of the impact, and distributes the force to the hand guard.. PMA doesn't solely rely on energy transfer to survive drops, it has thicker walls than any known hand guard and offset mounts, it.

Be sure to choose a duty rated MRDS. While your MRDS is far more likely to survive a drop when mounted on PMA, the optic itself has to be robust.

In testing with a SWAT team in TX for close to a year, we can offer the following observations:

1. If you're used to a 45 degree offset mount, PMA will take a bit of getting used to, as it's faster than a 45 degree mount, and more intuitive in use.
2. If you're not used a 45 degree offset mount, PMA feels natural and is fast to deploy.
3. Users hit the target faster and more accurately with a PMA mounted MRDS than with one mounted on top of an ACOG.
4. Because PMA isn't a 45 degree mount, it has minimal lateral protrusion from the rifle to which it's mounted, and has a slimmer profile than a 45 degree offset mount.

Notice the minimal lateral protrusion of PMA.


PMA will clear top mounted PEQ-15, as well as less bulky NGAL and RAID X.

Tested and compatible with following MRDS:
Aimpoint T1/T2
Aimpoint ACRO P1/P2
Trijicon RMR
Leupold Delta Point Pro

The height of the sight is determined by the MRDS mount. We recommend very low mounts if possible.

Weight: 2.16 oz
Length of base: 1.25", occupies 3 Picatinny rails on the handguard.
Length of PMA cantilevered Picatinny base:2.16", 5 slots
Overall height: 0.90"
Center of the PMA to center of the handguard: 1.125"
Top of the hand guard rail to top of PMA's rail: 0.65"


NOTE: PMA is compatible with TA02 due to its large brightness adjustment turret on the left, the dot is still visible, but only on top of the MRDS's window, less of the window is blocked with a taller MRDS mount.

Proudly designed and made in the USA.

A brief video that shows transition from a TA31ECOS to an Aimpoint ACRO P2 mounted on PMA. This is set up for a right hand shooter.
In the video, the camera has to move less than an inch from TA31ECOS to ACRO P1. In practice, the user's head only needs 0.5" of movement to transition.


PMA also works with many thermal sights as an offset red dot mount. NOX 35 shown with an Aimpoint P1 mounted on PMA:

OPF-G, EFLX only fits Glock MOS, not the LE only MOS3 (DPP), MOS5 (RMR), MOS6 (Holosun 509T) and MOS7 (ACRO).

OPF-G, EFLX is compatible with GLOCKs that use GLOCK's G17, G19, G45, G47, G49, G20, G21 G22, G23, G26, G34, G40, all but the slim line Glocks (G43X and G48).

OPF-G, EFLX is compatible with the Leupold's Delta Point Pro. If the plate engraving says DPP only, it is the same plate we use for both DPP and EFLX.DPP sight-to-plates are longer, while EFLX uses shorter screws. Do not use DPP sight to plate screws with the EFLX.

Note that OPF-G, EFLX comes with M3 0.5x6mm plate-to-slide mounting screws, but not the sight to plate screws that will with EFLX sight. Use the EOTech supplied 9.75mm M4 screws that came with the EFLX sight to sight-to-plate.

OPF-G, EFLX (Optics Platform, Forward Controls, EFLX ) is compatible with EOTech's new EFLX sight. OPF-G, EFLX uses the same proven design of the OPF-G, RMR to keep the EFLX immobile, the simplest and most effective way to prevent sight to plate mounting screws from loosening and shearing.

While EFLX uses 4 recoil lugs (twice as that of the RMR's) and beefier mounting screws, the challenges of keeping the sight on the plate without loosening or shearing the sight to plate screws are not very different from those of the RMR. OPF-G, EFLX has a front and rear fence, the tight tolerances of the plate to slide, and sight to plate insures minimum movement along the bore in recoil.


OPF-G, EFLX ships with 2 plate to slide screws (M3 0.5mm x 6mm), a T10 wrench, and a packet of VC-3. A torque wrench is necessary to properly install both the plate to slide, and sight to plate screws. EFLX sight to plate screws are not included, as they are shipped with the EFLX sight.

Torque value:
Plate to slide: 13in/lb
Sight to plate: 20 to 25 in/lb

Note that OPF-G, EFLX comes with plate to slide mounting screws, but not the sight to plate screws that will with EFLX sight.

Vibra-tite VC-3 is included with OPF-G, EFLX. Instructions can be found here: https://www.vibra-tite.com/wp-content/uploads/213_tds.pdf
Vibra-tite also provides a video on the application of VC-3: https://www.vibra-tite.com/portfolio-items/vc-3-threadmate-overview-video/

EFLX requires backup sight sets with at least 0.365 front sight height. Sight sets with 0.365" will be very low in the EFLX sight window, with only the top of the sights visible. Sight sets with 0.407" will be easier to use.

Billet machined in 4140, hat treated and black nitride coated.

Comp M5 turret diameter is different from that of the T1 and T2. ATA, Comp M5 caps are incompatible with T1 and T2. ATA M5 is also not compatible with Aimpoint M5b which has its own elevation and windage caps. ATA for T1 and T2 can be found here: ATA (Adjustable Turret cap, Aimpoint Micro)

ATA, Comp M5 consists of 2 caps and 2 discs.


ATA, Comp M5 (Adjustable Turret cap, Aimpoint Comp M5) is a simple and robust solution. ATA, Comp M5 gives the user the ability to make adjustments to either the windage or elevation without removing the caps.

ATA, Comp M5consists of a pair of 17-4 SS billet machined cap with internal O ring, and a 17-4 SS rotating disc with an externally accessible top slot. The disc has two dots/protrusions that mate perfectly with the two indentations of the adjustment dial on the sight. To make adjustments to either the windage or elevation, the user uses the rim of a cartridge (.223, .308, .45 ACP, and 9mm were tested) or a coin to rotate the externally accessible disc of the ATA, Comp M5.

ATA, Comp M5 caps are serrated to assist in its installation. There are 12 serrations total, matching the tick marks on the inside of the factory T1 cap.

The internal O ring prevents undue moisture from entering the ATA, Comp M5. In water immersion testing, ATA, Comp M5's ability to keep out water is on par with the single piece factory cap, to the depth of 77ft. To wit, T1 and T2 windage and elevation adjustments are water resistant even without the caps, they can't be taken to Aimpoint specified depths without the caps on, Aimpoint only warranties the sights to the advertised depths with the caps installed. When installing the ATA, Comp M5, please do not remove the O rings already present on the sight.

ATA, Comp M5 is billet machined in 17-4 stainless steel, and QPQ treated. ATA, Comp M5 is shipped partially assembled (O ring is installed inside the cap, the disc is not installed inside the cap). It is far faster and easier to install the ATA, Comp M5 on the sight with the cap and disc separated (instructions are provided on the back of the card).

In place of the factory marking UP/R with a counter clockwise arrow, ATA, Comp M5's discs have the counter clockwise arrow, but individual caps for UP and R. As much as it may seem common sense that the elevation adjustment is always on top, and the windage adjustment is always on the side, the marking UP/R can be confusing to new shooters. At the risk of being redundant, the ATA, Comp M5's disc with the UP engraving is installed on top (for elevation), the disc with R engraving is installed on the right side (for windage).

ATA, Comp M5 is shipped as a pair of caps and discs (one with UP and a counter clockwise pointing arrow engraved, and another with R and a counter clock wise pointing arrow engraved). ATA caps ship with lubricated O rings installed.

ATA, Comp M5 is proudly made in USA. U.S. Patent No. 11,054,218


NOTE:
The adjustment caps on the ATA Comp M5 are NOT interchangeable with those on the T1/T2.

ATA is shipped with the internal O ring already installed. It is a good idea to keep the O rings (both the O rings on the base of the adjustments, and ATA's internal O rings) lubricated with silicon based lubrication. In a pinch, petroleum jelly can be used as a substitute, but we recommend using the correct lube (silicon based O ring lube) for the ATA.

ATA caps should remain stationary when the discs are rotated, though it is acceptable for the ATA caps to rotate 90 degrees in either direction as long as the caps still apply pressure on the O ring on the base of the adjustment. When there is excessive cap movement (i.e. the caps easily moves in unison with the disc while making adjustment), silicon based O ring lubricant should be applied to ATA's internal O ring.

ATA disc's engravings are small, as the discs are small. For better visibility, white crayon or Laquer-stik (on Amazon) can be used to fill in the engraving.

ATA-TTE (tool-less turret, elevation) is an add on for ATA, Comp M5. If the TTE option is selected, the package will be shipped with both the standard caps, discs, and the TTE.

Comp M5 turret diameter is different from that of the T1 and T2. ATA, Comp M5 caps are incompatible with T1 and T2. ATA M5 is also not compatible with Aimpoint M5b which has its own elevation and windage caps. ATA for T1 and T2 can be found here: ATA (Adjustable Turret cap, Aimpoint Micro)

ATA, Comp M5 consists of 2 caps and 2 discs.

]]> Aimpoint® has once again advanced the standard for pistol mounted optics with the introduction of the Acro P-2™ red dot sight. This next generation sight incorporates an improved LED emitter coupled with a higher capacity CR2032 battery to provide an astonishing five years (50,000 hours) of constant-on power while getting you on target faster and more accurately.

Designed to endure the physical forces generated by semi-automatic pistol slides, the ACRO™ series was the first pistol sight to offer a fully enclosed optical channel to protect the LED emitter. Built to exceed the requirements of professional users, the Acro P-2 has been tested and proven to withstand the extreme shock, vibration, temperatures, and material stresses generated by firing over 20,000 rounds of .40 S&W ammunition.

The new high efficiency LED emitter provides a sharp 3.5 MOA dot. Protective clear glass front and rear lenses guard the advanced reflective lens system. The new digital intensity adjustment keypad provides a more distinct tactile feel when adjusting the dot intensity, and these controls are now placed next to the battery compartment to help protect the power adjustments against unintentional changes.

In addition to use as a primary optic on handguns, the Acro P-2 can be mounted on carbines, shotguns and rifles or utilized as a backup sight on magnified scopes and thermal imagers. The sight can be mounted on a wide range of optics-ready handguns using adapter plates. It is night vision compatible, and the dot can also be turned up for use in bright sunlight.

Aimpoint red dot sights are operationally parallax-free, which means the visible dot remains parallel to the bore of your weapon no matter what angle your eye is in relation to the sight. Therefore, the user never has to worry about centering the dot inside the sight. If you have a proper zero, when the dot is on the target, so are you. Aimpoint red dot sights increase confidence by allowing the shooter to focus on the target while keeping both eyes open, fully situationally aware at all times. Users can achieve first round hits faster with greater confidence.

Therefore, the user never has to worry about centering the dot inside the sight. If you have a proper zero, when the dot is on the target, so are you. Aimpoint red dot sights increase confidence by allowing the shooter to focus on the target while keeping both eyes open, fully situationally aware at all times. Users can achieve first round hits faster with greater confidence.

]]> The Aimpoint® CompM5 is a compact, lightweight, and extremely rugged red dot optic in the Comp™ series of sights. The CompM5™ sight was designed to take up minimal space on the weapon platform while still offering extreme ruggedness and durability. The unmatched optical clarity and ability to withstand the demands of professional end-users is why the CompM5 is currently used and trusted by top tier end users throughout the free world. New innovative lenses with cutting-edge reflective coatings, radically improve the shape of the 2 MOA dot. ACET technology allows 50,000 hours (over 5 years) of constant operation with one AAA battery on setting 7. The CompM5 sight has a high battery compartment while the CompM5s™ has a low battery compartment. The CompM5 optic features recessed lenses with protective flip-up lens covers. The front cover is solid and rear is transparent – allowing the user to shoot with both eyes open while the lens caps are closed in an emergency situation. The sight housing is constructed of hard-anodized aluminum alloy for optimal protection of the electronic and optical components in all types of environmental conditions. Aimpoint 3XMag-1™ and 6XMag-1™ magnifiers and all generations of night vision devices pair perfectly with the CompM5 sight. This optic is sold without a mount. A wide variety of Aimpoint Micro mounts are available through the Official Aimpoint store. Aimpoint red dot sights are operationally parallax-free, which means the visible dot remains parallel to the bore of your weapon no matter what angle your eye is in relation to the sight. Therefore, the user never has to worry about centering the dot inside the sight. If you have a proper zero, when the dot is on the target, so are you.

]]> NOTE: PML has three requirements:

1. A 1.93" or taller mount.
2. LPVO tube diameter of 30mm.
2. A known quality steel MOS compatible plate (PML does not come with a MOS plate)

PML requires a 1.93" mount for the mounted MRDS to clear the left turret. 30mm diameter works best with PLM. A 34mm's larger tube diameter puts the left turret further outward, and will block the upper 1/4 of the RDS's window. It is still usable.

In order to lower the installed height of a mount the red dot as low as possible, we opted to use the MOS (Modular Optics System). A MOS plate is NOT included. We produce the following plates for MOS:

OPF-G, RMR (for Trijicon RMR, RMR HD, RCR and SRO)
OPF-G, RMRcc (for Trijicon RMRcc)
OPF-G, DPP (For Leupold DPP and Eotech EFLX)
OPF-G, ACRO (For Aimpoint ACRO P1, P2 and Steiner MPS)
OPF-G, ROMEO2

We do not make pistol optics mounting plates in aluminum, we do not like the idea of steel fasteners screwing into aluminum plates, PML's tapped M3 screw holes have helicoils. Because PML is a rifle optics mount that doesn't experience up to 1800G in recoil as a red dot sight can when mounted on a pistol slide, we believe Glock's OEM plates will be adequate. Do not use aluminum plates with PML


PML (Parallel Mount, LPVO) is an offset Picatinny mount designed for use in conjunction with LPVO using a 1.93" mount. PML / PMA is a spin off that grew out of the side folding backup sights project (think Bren Gun offset sights). Side folding offsets sights would be costly to produce, a modern RDS would be faster and easier to use, and the parallel mount was created to do just that.

PML can be mounted on the upper receiver (provided there is sufficient rail space), or a railed hand guard with available Picatinny rails at 12 o'clock, it can be mounted with the RDS on the left or right of the host rifle.

A MRDS thus mounted is fast to use that takes but a slight shift (less than an inch) of the user's head to acquire the dot. Optionally, the user can choose to rotate a carbine or rifle with MRDS mounted on PMA, but no longer is necessary to rotate the weapon 45 degrees, PMA only needs 10 degrees of rotation.

Do note that PML isn't a 45 degree offset mount, the way it's mounted and used is different. A red dot sight mounted on the PML should be INBOARD, not OUTBOARD like a 45 degree offset mount.

For instance:
If you're a right hand shooter, PML should be mounted with the offset/cantilevered red dot sight on the left side.
If you're a left hand shooter, PML should be mounted with the offset/cantilevered red dot sight on the right side.

PML is over built in the way of strength, it is machined from a solid block of 7075 aluminum and Type III hard coat anodized, its Picatinny clamp is machined in 4140 steel and black zinc coated, its screw holes have helical lining. If a rifle with PML and MRDS installed is dropped on the side where PML is mounted, PML (not the MRDS) takes the brunt of the impact, and distributes the force to the hand guard.. PML doesn't solely rely on energy transfer to survive drops, it has thicker walls than any known hand guard and offset mounts, it.

Be sure to choose a duty rated MRDS. While your MRDS is far more likely to survive a drop when mounted on PML, the optic itself has to be robust.

In testing with a SWAT team in TX for close to a year, we can offer the following observations:

1. If you're used to a 45 degree offset mount, PML will take a bit of getting used to, as it's faster than a 45 degree mount, and more intuitive in use.
2. If you're not used a 45 degree offset mount, PML feels natural and is fast to deploy.
3. Uers hit the target faster and more accurately with a PML mounted MRDS than with one mounted on top of an ACOG.
4. Because PML isn't a 45 degree mount, it has minimal lateral protrusion from the rifle to which it's mounted, and has a slimmer profile than a 45 degree offset mount.

Weight: 2.29 oz
Length of base: 1.25", occupies 3 Picatinny rails on the handguard.
Length of PML cantilevered base:2.1"
Overall height: 0.70"
Center of the PML to center of the handguard: 1.125"


Proudly designed and made in the USA.

NOTE: PML has three requirements:

1. A 1.93" or taller mount.
2. LPVO tube diameter of 30mm.
2. A known quality steel MOS compatible plate (PML does not come with a MOS plate)

]]>
ATA consists of two caps and two discs, it allows the user to make elevation and windage adjustments on T1/T2, and the Comp M5 (T1/T2 and Comp M5 versions are different due to the slight larger Comp M5 turret diameter) without removing the cap.

ATA's standard discs are low profile, and require the rim of a cartridge, or a flat head screw drive to make adjustments. ATA-TET in essence is a taller ATA disc, but taller in profile so the user can use his finger to adjust the elevation. A slot is still provided so a cartridge rim can be used to rotate the turret.

ATA-TTE is designed for the ATA Comp M5, while it is compatible with the T1/T2, it is very stiff on a T1/T2 . As with any retrofit design, both ATA and ATA-TTE are 3rd party development for T1/T2 and Comp M5, we had to work within the confines of T1/T2 and M5 design and hardware.

TTE's diameter is small (0.306) by necessity, there simply isn't any room for its diameter to be any larger. A small knob is unforgiving and can be harder to turn than a knob with a larger diameter. On some T1/T2, the turret can be stiff and can rotate the cap in unison. Should this happen, use one hand to hold the cap from moving while rotate the TTE when making elevation adjustments.

ATA-TTE is designed for the ATA Comp M5, while it is compatible with the T1/T2, it is very stiff on a T1/T2, it's rather stiff. Does not come with the Comp M5 ATA caps.
ATA-TTE is only marked for elevation, and ships with a single turret.

More info here: RMR sight to plate screws vs. Holosun screws

Factory sights are too low for OPF-SW, RMR. If you need backup sights, we offer Night Fision sights Truglo SW-BUIS-WDO-NT (no tritium).

From October of 2023, we've begun to transition T10 sight to plate screws to T15.

Precision machined in 4140 and black nitride coated, OPF-SW, RMR is the latest collaboration between Tangodown and Forward Controls.

Continuing the tradition of reliable duty grade, precision machined steel optics interface plates in both companies' line up, OPF-SW, RMR is made for Smith & Wesson M&P CORE 2.0 and M2.0 pistols.

For optics interface plates, things that matter: tolerances, material, and a means to keep the sight immobile, or deny it movement in recoil.

Tight tolerances reduce the plate's movement on the slide, and the sight's movement on the plate, but that alone sometimes isn't enough. For older sights like RMR that have fairly loose tolerances, the fences on our plate are designed to cradle it and hold it immobile. Newer sights like DPP and RMRcc don't need the fences, we still incorporate them whenever possible.

Material matters. For optics interface plates, Tangodown and we only use steel, all of our plates are military/duty grade.


Torque value for included 6-32 x 5/16 T15 plate to slide screws: 25 in ·lb.
Torque value for RMR to plate: 13 in ·lb.

Weight: 1.2 oz
Material: 4140, black nitride coated

Proudly designed and made in USA.

NOTE:
* OPF-SW, RMR plate uses 6-32x5/16 plate to slide screws to fasten the plate to the slide, and sight to plate screws are separate. The sight to plate screws don't pass through the plate and screw into the slide as SW's plastic plate.

* Trijicon's new RCR and RMR HD are both compatible with OPF-SW, RMR.

* OPF-SW, RMR does not require a sealing plate for RMR.

NOTE:
Not all ACRO plates are created equal. While Tangodown, FCD and many known, reputable ACRO plate manufacturers and factory slides with ACRO cut adhere to Aimpoint ACRO TDP, some do not.
RLB is designed to work with in spec ACRO footprint plates and slides, but if a plate or slide is out of spec, even RLB isn't going to fix their woes.

The plate shown below is missing about 40% to 45% of the dovetail specified by Aimpoint's TDP. All critical dimensions are either off, or drastically altered, RLB can't solve issues originating from out of spec plates.

]]> NOTE:
For agency authorized POW, please be sure to check with your agency armorer (or contact us at 214-399-7579) regarding the version authorized, this applies to the co-witnessing BIS, 43X backup sights as well.

OPF-G43x/48, RMRcc is designed for and only compatible with GLOCK G43x and 48, and Trijicon's RMRcc. It will not work with other GLOCK models, and other red dot sights.

OPF-G43X/48 is NOT compatible with the special run of FDE G43X.

OPF-G43X/48, RMRcc is compatible with the original G43X/G48 MOS footprint for direct mounting of RMSc sights as shown below:


OPF-P365 Macro, RMRcc (no rear sight dovetail) does work with the FDE G43X, though it does sit a bit (0.035") taller


For law enforcement and users that require backup sights, Ameriglo GL-527 or our BIS, 43X/48 (made for us by Ameriglo with a front sight height 0.450", rear sight height 0.554" will be needed for lower 1/3 co-witness.

G43x and 48 MOS slides are designed for direct mounting of the Shield RMSc sight. Trijicon's RMR is longer and wider, and requires an adapter plate which also necessarily raises the mounting surface in order to mount an RMRcc.

With the OPF-G43x/48, RMRcc, we didn't merely raise the mounting surface to provide a platform for the RMRcc. As RMRcc is longer than the G43X/48 MOS cut, the sight overhangs on the slide. When installed, the bottom of RMRcc (with Trijicon provided sealing plate installed) is almost flush with the top of the slide so the sight is as low as possible. We positioned the RMRcc towards the center of the plate as much as feasible, this is done to reduce the amount of unsupported overhang on the RMRcc's sealing plate in front. RMRcc has a rubber gasket around its battery compartment to keep water and moisture at bay, which pushes the sealing plate downward. This isn't an issue if the plate is of the same length as the RMRcc, but with an overhang, it creates a slight gap between the gasket and the sealing plate. OPF-G43x/48, RMRcc's design eliminates the gap/opening between the sight and sealer plate, to the point of emulating a plate that's as long as the sight itself. To wit, if the plate is as long as the RMRcc, it will make the installed height of RMRcc even taller, which is the very reason we chose to let the sight overhang.


OPF-G, RMRcc ships with 2 plate to slide screws (M4-0.7mmx8mm), 2 sight to plate screws (T10 5-40 x 1/4 ), and a packet of VC-3. The RMRcc mounting screws that ship with the RMRcc can also be used with OPF-G, RMRcc.
We don't care for the lightweight mafia and lightening cuts designed solely for show. A decorated tool is a waste of energy and time.

OPF-G43X/48, RMRcc has a huge lightening cut, but it's invisible when the plate is installed and in use. The 43X RMRcc plate is lighter than our RMR plate as a result. There's a vast (relatively speaking) area under the plate that doesn't do anything except taking up weight, so it's removed.


A torque wrench is required to properly torque the plate to slide, and sight to plate screws.
Trijicon RMRcc is supplied with a sealer plate, it is required for OPF-G43X/48, RMRcc installation.

Torque value:
Plate to slide: 15 to 20 in·lbs.
Sight to plate: 15 to 18 in·lbs..

Weight: 0.75oz
Material: 4140 steel, black nitride, or 17-4 stainless, black oxide for divers or high humidity environments.

OPF-P365 Macro, RMRcc will NOT work with an RMR.

OPF-P365 Macro, RMRcc will ship with both M3 0.5 x 8mm plate-to-slide screws. Recent samples had shown some P365s have shorter screw holes than previous versions. Original used 12mm, 2024 guns may used 12 or 10mm, 2025 may used 10mm or 8mm. Would be nice if SIG could stop changing depths every other Friday :\


OPF-P365 Macro, RMRcc is compatible with P365 Macro, or the new (October, 2022) version of P365X that has the rear sight in its own dovetail, as shown below.



Note: It is NOT compatible with the SIG P365 Fuse, which later became SIG-LOC footprint, and the new P365X that uses yet another (3rd variation for P365) footprint, aka SIG-LOC that doesn't have the M3 threaded posts, but uses M4 tapped screw holes. Please remove your cover plate and check the footprint. The new SIG footprint of the month uses M4 screws, the pocket just has the screw holes, whereas the previous versions use M3 screws, and have threaded posts.




OPF-P320 Macro, RMRcc can be used on older P365X where the optics plate and rear sight are integrated: Installing the P365X Macro RMRcc plate will not allow the installation of a rear sight.

Given's SIG's penchant for changing things with abandon and no apparent reasons, here's one thing to look out for on your slide.

Please remove the slide's optics cut cover plate, and ensure the slot is present. OPF-P365X, RMRcc has an oval shaped indexer that mates with the slot on the slide, but some P365X slides do not have this feature.

Your slide must have the slot in the center as shown below:

If the slide does not have the center slot as shown below, OPF-P365X, RMRcc will need to have the oval shaped indexer removed in order to fully seat in the pocket.



OPF-P365 Macro, RMRcc is designed and made for SIG Sauer P365 Macro, and P365X where the rear sight is in its own dovetail on the slide, and Trijicon's RMRcc.

Machined in 4140 steel, and black oxide coated. We don't black nitride OPF-P365 Macro, RMRcc due to the thin plate extension over the slide, nitride would make it brittle.

Due to the design confines of the P365X, OPF-P365 Macro, RMRcc has to be made rather tall, as it not only has to bring a flat mounting surface for the RMRcc, it also has to have adequate thickness for a rear sight dovetail.

For LE users whose agencies authorize P365X and RMRcc, and also mandates backup sights for red dot equipped handguns, we offer backup sights made by Night Fision: Night Fision sights (be sure to select the SIG sights in the drop down menu.) The tritium dot is partially obscured, the iron sights are very low and usable.





NOTE:
RMRcc sealing plate is required, a sealing plate comes with RMRcc (check underneath the foam on the bottom the Pellican case.)

P365X holsters from Henry Holsters https://www.henryholsters.com/ and PHLSTER https://www.phlsterholsters.com/ can accommodate a P365X/XL with BIS, P365X.

Torque value for plate to slide M3 0.5x12mm screws: 15 in lb.
Torque value for RMRcc sight to plate 5-40x3/8 screws: 15 to 18 in lb.

NOTE:
If you don't need backup sights, OPF-P365 Macro can work on older versions of P365X where the rear sight is attached to the cover plate, it does not provide a rear sight dovetail for a rear sight.

OPF-G43X/48, ACRO is designed for and only compatible with GLOCK G43x and G48, for use with Aimpoint P1, P2, and Steiner's MPS. It will not work with other GLOCK models, and not guaranteed to work with any Chinese made clones.

For law enforcement and users that require backup sights, BIS, 43X provides very low lower 1/5 co-witness. GL-808 is required for lower 1/4 co-witness, but the rear sight should be installed only after the OPF-43X/48, ACRO plate is installed first.

OPF-G43x/48, ACRO (Optics Platform, Forward Controls, G43x/48, ACRO) is the latest member of the OPF line. G43x and G48 MOS slides are designed for direct mounting of the Shield RMSc sight. P1/P2, and MPS is longer and wider, and requires an adapter plate which also necessarily raises the mounting surface in order to mount a P1/P2, or MPS.

The idea of using a "full size" RDS on a low vis, concealed carry pistol may seem odd at first. Trijicon's RMRcc is the same length, nearly as tall as an RMR but is narrower. ACRO P2 is itself slightly larger in size than an RMR, an ACRO P2 on a G43X/48 makes a lot of sense. P2's boxy size is deceiving, it's 0.1" longer, 0.1" wider, and 0.2" taller, these slight increases in dimensions would have been difficult to notice but for the ACRO P2's boxy shape.

For the slight dimensional increase, the user gets a full size window which to us, is more than an acceptable compromise.
