Red dot adapters for Springfield models

(23 products)

This collection brings together every red dot adapter we have for Springfield models: optics ready plates for Springfield models with a factory optic cut, and red dot mounts for Springfield models without one. Pick your model above and you see only the plates or mounts that fit it.

Plate or mount: which one does your Springfield model take

  • Optics Ready Springfield models have a factory optic cut in the slide, closed with a cover plate. They take an optics ready plate. The plate goes into the cut and connects it to the footprint of your red dot.
  • Springfield models without an optic cut take a red dot mount. The mount replaces the rear sight in its dovetail. You need no slide milling and no permanent modifications.

A mount does not fit an Optics Ready model, and a plate does not fit a model without the cut. Choose your exact model, including the Optics Ready (OR) or MOS part of its name.

Optics Ready Springfield models

We have optic plates for Springfield pistols with a factory optic cut. Springfield calls this cut OSP (Optical Sight Pistol). Plates are available for the XD OSP, XDM OSP, XDM Elite OSP, Hellcat OSP, Echelon and 1911 DS Prodigy. Several Springfield pistols are made by HS Produkt, so many plates also fit the HS Produkt versions.

Which plate fits which model

1911 DS Prodigy plates with rear sight

For the 1911 DS Prodigy, Impact Machine makes steel plates with an integrated rear sight. They exist for the Trijicon RMR, Holosun K-series, Holosun 509T, Leupold DPP and Aimpoint Acro footprints. The rear sight lets you co-witness through the red dot. A plate without rear sight is available for the Trijicon RMR.

Which red dot for which footprint

Which red dots go on which footprint, with examples from our range:

Footprints by model

  • XD OSP family: Toni System type A (RMSc, DPP, Docter) and type B (RMR, RTS).
  • Hellcat OSP: Trijicon RMR (EGW) and Holosun K-series (Night Fision).
  • Echelon: Aimpoint Acro (2BME).
  • 1911 DS Prodigy: Trijicon RMR, Holosun K-series, Holosun 509T, Leupold DPP and Aimpoint Acro.

Frequently asked questions

Can I install an optic plate on my Springfield at home?

Yes. No milling is needed, and you can do it yourself.

  1. Remove the cover plate from the optic cut.
  2. Screw the optic plate into the cut.
  3. Screw the red dot onto the plate.

Put a drop of threadlocker on every screw.

Which red dots will fit my Springfield?

It depends on the plate you choose. Every plate takes one footprint or a group of footprints. For Springfield pistols we have plates for the Trijicon RMR, Shield RMSc, Holosun K-series, Leupold DPP, Docter, C-More RTS, Aimpoint Acro and Holosun 509T footprints.

Choose your red dot first and find its footprint in the specifications. Then take the plate with the same footprint.

Do HS Produkt plates fit my Springfield?

Yes, where the plate names both brands, for example the Hellcat OSP and H11 OR plates or the XD OSP and SF19 RDR plates.

Can I keep iron sights on my 1911 DS Prodigy with a red dot?

Yes. Take an Impact Machine plate with an integrated rear sight. They exist for the Trijicon RMR, Holosun K-series, Holosun 509T, Leupold DPP and Aimpoint Acro footprints.

Can I put a red dot on my Springfield without an optic cut?

Yes. The mount goes into the rear sight dovetail in place of the rear sight. No milling and no permanent changes, so you can put the rear sight back at any time.

Can I install the mount at home?

Yes, if you have a sight pusher or a punch.

  1. Drift the rear sight out of the dovetail.
  2. Push the mount into the dovetail and tighten it.
  3. Screw the red dot onto the mount with a drop of threadlocker on each screw.

You find the tools in Installation tools.

My XDM OSP is Optics Ready. Will these mounts fit?

No. A pistol with a factory optic cut takes an optic plate, not a mount. See Optics ready plates for Springfield models.
