This will be my first pistol with an optic so i dont know much about the topic. I will be using a gen 5 g19 MOS and an older type 1 RMR.

Looking around it sounds like the factory MOS plates arnt the best. Whos plates are recommended and GTG?

No, just no.
CHPWS plates have been garbage for years, many examples can be easily found with a simple google search.

Don’t click this one. ☝🏼
Poor machining, out of spec, broken screws, broken bosses, bad finish, aluminum and plastic, and extremely bad CS from Bucky.

As stated already…FCD is the plate. Don’t forget to mention Arfcom to get duck swag. RMR sits in a full pocket, similar to a milled slide. Made of steel.
