GL-01AL

I originally planned on returning this item because I was having trouble getting in on my gun. It was so tight fitting that I was afraid that I might damage it or the slide while trying to install it. I tried putting it on my Glock 26, 32 and 34. All had the same issue. It would go in about 1/3 of the way and then it didn’t want to go any further. I watched a YouTube video and read several reviews and all said that you had to beat it in pretty hard to get it to seat. I wrapped the slide up really good and put a small wooden block on the side of the mount and used a heavy hammer to beat it in. And I mean beat it in. It took several hard whacks to finally get it all of the way in. I even put a drop of oil in the dovetail channel before I started thinking that it might help. It centered up well and I mounted a Crimson Trace cts-1300 on it. I shot 34 rounds through it and it held tight. I can bet that it ain’t going anywhere. My only concern is if I ever want to take it off, how hard will that be? It is too wide to use a traditional sight pusher so I guess I will have to use a copper punch and hammer. The kit comes with all of the mounting screws that will fit several different sights. The Burris screws tightened my Crimson Trace down just right. Screws already have blue Locktite on them. I went ahead and ordered another one that will accommodate the rmr/ Holosun type since I think that I want to put one of them on another Glock. This is the best option if your gun is not MOS ready and you don’t want to spend $150 to get your slide milled. The sight does sit a little higher than if you did have it milled but the ability to go from gun to gun, if you wanted to, makes this mount an economical choice. I am happy with it so far.

I have two of these. I highly recommend them. Pros: One piece design. Secure fit in the dovetail of Glocks. Comes with 3 sets of screws and wrenches. Cons: None. The screws in the kit were 2mm too short for an ADE RD3-009. I picked up some M3-0.5 x 8mm screws at Home Depot. These are a perfect flush fit with the RD3-009 and the bottom of the adapter. The screws in the kit are the correct length for an ADE RD3-006. Relatively easy to install with a sight pusher. The U-shaped block on my VISM NCStar sight pusher is too narrow to accommodate this (and most other) adapter. I found a workaround. I put one of the set screws included with the kit into the hole above the dovetail. I left about 2 threads sticking up. By carefully adjusting the sight pusher, you can push against the screw stub to move the adapter into place.

This dovetail mount is great option if you don't have a cut or MOS slide. It is very sturdy, and I haven't needed to adjust or tighten it after several trips to the range. It comes with blue coat on screws. It's best to use a sight removal/installation tool but it can be done with a mallet. My tool never came in, so I was forced to use a mallet and the mount was very durable. I used this with a Vortex Venom and I haven't had any issues with the mount. If you want to co-witness you will need to review your options as this mount will place your red dot slightly higher.

Good

The plate is great it matched up on my aborted Venom perfectly. Now the install was another thing. I took out my rear site then started pushing this plate in and all was going well till about a little past half way then it stopped. Now maybe this would’ve been easy had I bought the site pulled tool, but I didn’t want to spend the extra $60 for a tool I’ll use once. So after a lot of persuading and a few colorful words, I got it on and I feel confident that bad boy ain’t coming off or moving so that’s a plus.

This base plate worked perfectly with my Glock 19, 9mm. I was a little skeptical about fitment but the plate installed nicely. With a sight pusher to installation of the Burris Fastfire III, it took less than ten minutes total. I am VERY pleased with this product and highly recommend it to anyone considering. I am not being paid for a review and received no discount. This is just my opinion on this product and how easy installation was. Shipping was as expected, it was packaged well, comes with a variety of screws already with Loctite which was convenient- thank you for that. It comes with Allen wrenches and a nice little plastic box for storage. I couldn’t be happier.

It does fit the g21 2st gen. The hard part was finding a dot that fit the mount because I wasn't going to spend upwards of $300 on a red dot for a pistol. I did find one that fit other than the ones listed on the ad for around $60 from ADE. My next concern was the violence a pistol barrel experiences knocking the dot off mark. So far (less than 300 rnds) that hasn't happened .... Yet

Ok
