Foxtail Precision 100016 Rear Sight Dovetail Optic Adapter Plate

The Foxtail Precision 100016 transforms any Smith & Wesson M&P or M&P 2.0 pistol into a red dot-ready platform without permanent modifications. This black anodized adapter plate mounts directly into the rear sight dovetail, providing a stable foundation for micro red dot sights while maintaining the ability to co-witness with iron sights.

What Makes This Different

Unlike milling solutions that permanently alter the slide, this dovetail adapter preserves the pistol's original configuration while adding optic capability. The precision-machined aluminum construction distributes recoil forces across the entire dovetail interface rather than concentrating stress on mounting screws alone. Installation requires only basic tools and reverses completely, making it ideal for shooters who want optic capability without permanent modifications.
