Mcfoto Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 Recently replaced my Vortex Viper with a Venom and noticed the threaded holes in the Glock MOS plate are stripping out. Any one have recommendations for an aftermarket plate that plays with Vortex? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rowdyb Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 I went back to the mos plate but with aftermarket screws. That was better for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

epault Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 I've been using Forward Control Design for all my mounts. I switched from CHPWS. the FCD mounts are steel and I saw higher scores on 25Y bulls with the FCD since I can put more torque on them. I'm 20 in/lb mount to slide and 25 in/lb DPP to mount. The RMR will be less since they use different screws. The FCD is also a one piece design unlike the Gen4 CHPWS. The Gen3 CHPWS was better then the Gen4. https://www.forwardcontrolsdesign.com/OPF-G-RMR_p_224.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vluc Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 Love what FCD has, just nothing for my Holosun, but I respect their supporting American made items regardless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve got a 507c on FCD plate as place holder until I go SRO. YMMV but this combo fits just fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WDG710 Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 I have gone to using CH Precision Plates and I'm very happy with them. I would check it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

usmc1974 Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 I hear a lot of different things. so, I don't know, so I'm asking what is the best plates or having the slide milled for your red. I really like the way my smith and Wesson M&P2.0 metal came. Is like the slide is self was milled for my holosun 507 just a little tiny plastic place keeper.

Cuz Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 1 hour ago, GigG said: Milled is better than plates. Yup. After trying all of the above mentioned plates on my G34, I bought a regular G17 and sent it out to get milled. Couldn't be happier. But, if you already have the MOS slide, then I preferred the FCD plate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobody909 Posted May 24, 2023 Share Posted May 24, 2023 C and H precision seems to be a very good option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeepFried Posted June 13, 2023 Share Posted June 13, 2023 CHPWS now offering a steel plate solution, same as the forward controls design. i’m still very happy with the forward controls plate after seeing some T nut failures. https://chpws.com/product/v2-steel-mil-leo-adapter-trijicon-rmr-only-fits-glock-mos/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan N Posted May 26 Share Posted May 26 My experience with CHPWS is less than ideal. When mounting the optic to my Walther PDP there is over .010 front to rear movement between the optic and plate and over .010 between the plate and slide. That means the screws are being relied on to keep things in place. I've had two Glock slides milled by Battlewerx and both have been an amazing fit for Holosun 407c.

GJM Posted May 26 Share Posted May 26 Lots of experience with CHPWS. Lately I have been using DPP brand plates for the Holosun/RMR and EPS optics on a Glock MOS. Available on Amazon, half the price, and they have worked great. Made in China. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan N Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 Does anyone have experience with Forward Control plates with the Holosun 507 Comp? Statements on the Forward Controls website leads me to believe that there may be a problem with fitment with the Holosun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And, that no Holosun screws were included. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan N Posted May 29 Share Posted May 29 (edited) I reached out to Battlewerx about the difference between the RMR and 407/507C and received this detailed response. I've had two Glock slides milled for Holosuns by them and both have an amazing fit with zero play. Here's what they said: "The cut is exactly the same for the RMR and the Holosun 507c/407c/508T/507Comp. The only difference is the length of the mounting screws used for each make of optic. The Holosun will use a 4-40 x 5/16" mounting screw and the Trijicon RMR uses a 4-40 x 3/8” mounting screws. You can find both those screws available at the link below. https://www.battlewerx.com/optic-mounting-screws/" With this in mind, the Foreward Controls plate should work perfectly if you shorten the screws by 1/16" for the Holosun.
