The Foxtail Precision 100005 Red Dot Adapter Plate eliminates the frustration of incompatible optics mounting on compact pistols. This precision-engineered adapter bridges the gap between popular red dot sights and Glock 43X/48 MOS platforms, along with Springfield Armory OSP models.
What Makes This Different
Unlike generic adapter plates that require modification or compromise sight height, this plate maintains proper co-witness alignment while providing rock-solid mounting. The black anodized aluminum construction resists corrosion and wear better than standard steel plates. CNC machining ensures consistent tolerances across production runs, eliminating the fitment issues common with cast alternatives.
Key Features
- CNC-machined from 6061-T6 aluminum for superior strength-to-weight ratio
- Type III hard anodized finish provides 25% greater corrosion resistance
- Compatible with Glock 43X/48 MOS and Springfield Armory OSP platforms
- Maintains 1/3 co-witness height with factory iron sights
- Pre-drilled and tapped mounting holes eliminate gunsmith installation
- Low-profile design adds minimal bulk to slide profile
- Accepts most popular micro red dot sight footprints
Field testing demonstrates consistent zero retention through 500+ round sessions without loosening. The adapter excels in concealed carry applications where reliability cannot be compromised. Competition shooters appreciate the repeatable mounting system that maintains point of impact between sight changes. Law enforcement agencies report successful deployment in duty applications where environmental exposure demands corrosion resistance.
