Editorial interest 84/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A reference and fit checker for matching pistol slides with red-dot optics, adapter plates, screw threads, torque figures, and co-witness compatibility.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-17 issue.

Field notes

The reference organizes compatibility across 178 pistol slides, 75 optics, 18 footprints, and 44 mount systems, with browsing paths for pistols, optics, and footprints. Its output is intended to be taken to a workbench: it identifies adapter plates, screw bags, threads, torque figures, installation order, and co-witness status. Five mount systems carry a verification flag, and the site specifically warns that an overlong screw can intrude into the striker channel.
