Viridian RFX 44 Shield RMSc Red Dot Mounting Adapter - Black

The Viridian RFX 44 Shield RMSc Mounting Adapter transforms Smith & Wesson Shield pistols into precision platforms compatible with RMSc-pattern red dot sights. This precision-machined adapter eliminates the need for slide modifications while maintaining the pistol's low profile and reliability.

What Makes This Different

Unlike universal mounting plates that add bulk and compromise sight alignment, the RFX 44 maintains the Shield's original sight height and ergonomics. The adapter's direct-mount design creates a solid connection between optic and slide, eliminating the flex and movement common with multi-piece mounting systems. Machined from aircraft-grade aluminum with Type III hard anodizing, this adapter withstands thousands of rounds without loosening or shifting.

Key Features

• Direct compatibility with RMSc footprint red dot sights including Shield RMSc, Holosun 407K/507K series
• Precision CNC machined from 6061-T6 aluminum with military-spec Type III hard anodizing
• Maintains factory sight height for co-witness with existing iron sights
• Zero-modification installation - no permanent alterations to slide required
• Includes stainless steel mounting screws with thread locker pre-applied
• Low-profile design adds minimal height and weight to pistol
• Compatible with all Smith & Wesson Shield 9mm and .40 S&W variants

The adapter's rigid construction transfers recoil forces directly to the slide, maintaining zero through extended shooting sessions. Competition shooters report consistent point-of-impact retention through 500+ round training sessions. The black anodized finish matches factory slide coatings and resists corrosion in humid environments or daily carry conditions.
