Haha no sacrificing anywhere, the one for Holosun will just be different so it'd fit without the customers having to modify the RMR/SRO plate.

Quoted:
Holosun sight will not work on ours without modification to the plate. The front recoil lug/fence is precision machined and mated for the RMR and SRO, Holosun's front's r value is different and doesn't conform to the current plate's curvature. It's not difficult to make a slight change to make it fit, not sure if we have time or the desire to do it, as we're moving on to M17 plate already. Our plate has been tested with RM01, RM06 and RM05, all are tight. We hold tighter tolerances than Trijicon does the RMR, but we have to accommodate their tolerances. View Quote |

Still early in the development (as in, just started), so anything goes. We prefer to keep things simple, but everything is on the table for now.

Quoted: M17 plate for RMR or DPP? Will the plate for the DPP include a raised backup sight? View Quote While direct mill is best, it seems like the best universal option is direct milling for DPP with adapter for RMR or ACRO since DPP sits so high. SIG and STI both do this and it seems to work well. |

Quoted:
Well the M17/18 are already cut for the DPP. Need better RMR options IMO. While direct mill is best, it seems like the best universal option is direct milling for DPP with adapter for RMR or ACRO since DPP sits so high. SIG and STI both do this and it seems to work well. View Quote With the DDP, I use the factory Leupold rear sight and just get a taller front sight. |

The MOS is a POS. If you want an optic on a Glock, just have the slide milled. View Quote OP I recently struggled with this question as well, in the end milling is the best option. Be sure to use one of the companies recommended here. Lot of milling horror stories out there. |

Thank you for not sacrificing the quality of the RMR plate to retrofit the holosun in! View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

It's occurred to me. It's not hard to make our RMR plate fit, so we'll look into it. It's most likely just a matter of making a less curved front recoil lug/fence. Bang, Holosun plate It's a result of the very precise fit we have on our RMR plate, I didn't expect, and honestly, didn't care about any other optics, we were focused solely on the RMR and SRO. With what we know now, we'll most likely make a version for Holosun as well. |

So wait, why am I suppose to be hating my MOS plate that attaches my 508t to my 19? Because it worked just fine for a couple thousand rounds. And then I got a chpws adapter plate because it’s supposed to be mo betta but so far......there’s no gap. Which is worth the $65......I guess.
Can someone what I’m doing wrong? I feel I should be highly disappointed with this system after reading some of this thread. ??????? |

Quoted:
Worth reading twice. View Quote The rmr is still gtg but there are cheaper options that have more features. Then slap a new chpws plate on there and rock solid system. |

Quoted:
The v2 prototype fit is so snug, I have to work at it to detach it from the SRO. The SRO to plate mounting screws are not installed in this pic. https://www.AR15.Com/media/mediaFiles/781/Untitled_jpg-1238560.JPG View Quote I am in the market for a RDS handgun for duty use and we cannot mill the slide so I'm looking at both the MOS and the CZ. Would love to try one of these out when they're available. |

When do you expect V2 to be available? I’m ready to order two!

Yep, OPF-G, H (Optics Platform, Forward Controls, Glock, Holosun) is coming too
|

Yes, but it's subject to change, there are a few issues to consider we can't discuss in public.
OPF (Optics Platform, FCD) as a line of products will include variants for different hand guns and optics. We will include all mounting screws and a packet of VC3 with all variants. |

We like our friends and customers, so we don't do pre-orders
These pre-orders rarely turn out well for the manufacturer and customers, delays are the norm and we're not in full control of things when they happen. Best to announce the availability when we can ship. A day or two worth of delays would be enough to stress me out, far more than it would our customers, so it's also for my sanity lol. |

Just an update on the CHPWS V3 plate. I hit just over 3100 rounds on my gen4 19. I removed the RMR and plate and installed it on to my Gen5 19. Target is to put around the same round count in the next 2 months and pop it back off. No issues so far with the plate. I will be ordering new hardware ($2.50) before the next install. I have to say I am excited for the FCD plate to come out soon. I will be sure to pick one up and put it on one of my MOS guns.

Second update: I was able to get some training in today at Sugar Creek. In my last post I removed the CHPWS v3 plate from my Gen4 MOS with 3100 rounds to a brand new Gen 5 19 MOS. I was able to get 519 rounds down ranger today. So the original plate is at 3619 with original hardware on two different guns with no issues. https://i.imgur.com/IgEOv0e.jpg View Quote |

Just got a G45 MOS (have not fired it yet), Trij RMR06-C-700672, AC32064 mounting screws & sealing plate. Will mount using blue Loctite.
I am looking at this for replacing the stock sights that are too low to use with the RMR: https://www.brownells.com/handgun-parts/sights/sight-sets/suppressor-night-sight-set-for-glock--prod53947.aspx 1) personal preferences for brand and sight color aside, does this look like an acceptable replacement sight? 2) I have heard that while I definitely need a tool to replace the front sight, that it is not essential to use a special tool for the rear sight replacement (was told the rear sight can be "tapped out" carefully, and new one carefully tapped in). I looked at the rear sight tools, and they're about $135, which for something I hope to only need to do once, seems excessive. Am I misinformed about the rear sight replacement? Any advice would be appreciated. Also, if anyone else is carrying this setup, what holster are you using? Thanks much for your help. |

View Quote The sights you picked will work but the tritium inserts will be a little low to be useful. I would go with the all black GL429 Ameriglo set instead. Same height as the GL329, a lower co-witness view. |

Quoted:
You need a nut driver for the front sight. There are several to choose from. You can use a punch to remove the rear if you can brace the slide firmly(ie a vice with plastic or wood lined jaws). The sights you picked will work but the tritium inserts will be a little low to be useful. I would go with the all black GL429 Ameriglo set instead. Same height as the GL329, a lower co-witness view.

In late October, @GS5414 said FCD wouldn't rush anything to market, it's true. There is no rush, we don't care about being first, only doing the best we can, our development time is typically fairly long.
Since then, we've had prototype v1, v2, and v3, with v3 being the production version. We tightened things up and addressed little imperfections with each iteration. Compared to the Glock MOS plate, OPF-G, RMR (Optics Platform, FCD, Glock, RMR) feels quite different. More about that later maybe, we'd rather let the users describe the differences OPF-G, RMR is in production now. Due to the tight tolerances and precision fit we've demanded of it, they're slow to run, we're not rushing here either. There will be no tool marks or sharp edges. I know these don't affect function, but little things matter. ETA is 3 to 4 weeks. Attached File |

I have a Gen4 34 MOS and I want to try the Aimpoint ACRO.
Anyone try that sight yet? How do you like it? |

Quoted: Understandable. I am wanting it give it a fair chance to see if it will fail. I don’t like group think, I always like to find out for myself. I bought another CHPWS v3 plate for my other gen 5 MOS just because Iam impatient waiting for the FC plate. https://www.AR15.Com/media/mediaFiles/490874/28CC742C-6840-4980-945C-AEA681F2EA9C_jpe-1260494.JPG View Quote I've heard some rumblings of folks having screws backing out using their instructions...but as with anything, YMMV, I suppose. |

Picked up a 45 MOS vs getting it milled due to having the versatility of being able to run RDS or just the cover.
I thought I recalled somewhere it was mentioned about having to use different screws than provided, or am I thinking of something else? Ill be using either the RMR plate for a 507c or Vortex plate for a Venom I have sitting around |

Just ordered my CHPWS plate for my new MOS G17. Looks like they are backordered for now. Are they available anywhere else? I would get the FCD plate but those are several weeks away too. Really wanted to have pistol setup for a NV course later this month.
