Frequently asked questions
Can I put a Shield Sights red dot on my pistol?
Yes, if there is a plate or mount for your pistol with the same footprint as the red dot. Each red dot names its footprint in the table above and in its description.
Can I install the red dot myself?
Yes. Screw it onto the plate or mount with the screws that come with it. Put a drop of threadlocker on each screw and tighten it to the torque given by the maker.
Open or enclosed red dot?
An enclosed red dot keeps rain and dirt away from the LED. An open red dot is lighter and smaller. Enclosed models here: Shield AMS and Shield AMSc.
