Colt Firearms 1911 Optics Plate Features The Colt Firearms 1911 Optics Plate is machined from stainless steel for long-term durability under the vibration and recoil of regular range and carry use. Its matte black finish keeps the plate s appearance consistent with a Colt 1911 s typical black finish while resisting wear from repeated holstering. Built to the Shield RMSc and Holosun 507k footprint the plate supports some of the most compact optics on the market which keeps the pistol s overall profile low and holster friendly. That compact footprint makes it a strong match for concealed carry setups where a bulkier optic would create printing or draw issues. An integrated Glock-style rear sight dovetail cut is machined into the plate letting shooters retain a usable iron sight reference alongside the mounted red dot for co-witness style aiming. Installation requires only an optics ready Colt 1911 slide with no additional machining needed to bolt the plate into place. This plate gives shooters a straightforward path to modernizing an existing 1911 platform with a red dot rather than purchasing an entirely new optics ready pistol. This Colt Firearms 1911 Optics Plate is available for sale at GrabAGun for Colt 1911 owners wanting compact red dot capability.
