The correct mounting plate and torque screwdriver tell me you're a guy who likes things done the right way. Had my slide milled on 365 and the 507k is on the way. Went ahead and purchased the same wheeler torque screwdriver to ensure right inch lbs. Nice job.
When mounting a red dot, I’d advise installing it with the slide stripped. That way if you have Loctite squeeze out in an exposed cavity, like the extractor plunger tunnel, you can clean it out. Plus it would be an excellent time to do a rare cleaning and oiling of the parts in the slide.
That’s why C&H sends their stuff with VC3 to mitigate that problem of loctite seepage into places it doesn’t need to find its way into. Apply the orange goop to the screws and let it set for about 20 minutes or so and they’re good to go.
DPP Titanium plate with the Holosun 507k xt is the way to go! The DPP plate is cut to fit the Glock 48 MOS to perfection! The screws fit perfect. (They even provide 2 for backup, all blue locktited). Perfect gun combination.
I had to file down the screws that came with the plate. One of the screws was long enough to bind on the extractor rod. This caused the extractor to lock in the open position and cause failures to extract.
Waiting on my holosun 507k x2 green dot to come with my dpp titanium plate its my first red dot on a pistol I can't wait gonna sight it in with federal 124gr hst thanks for posting the video
Just ordered a G48 mo's & really thankful for you sharing this information . Not sure which dot to run yet but most likely it'll be Holosun with a plate . I'd be concerned about rust issues just milling down the rear posts.
That’s not the common “MOS” plates. The mos plates are essentially adapter plates so you can run almost one pistol optic on market. They require an additional set of screws, and they are about 4-6 times thicker than the plate in this video
What screws did you use? The ones that came with the holosun or the ones with the mounting plate? I tried the screws that came with the plate and the wrench that came with the glock 43x and even the holosun one didn’t work. They’re too big to go into the screw heads. Other videos show using holosun tool.
@@boxingfan2469 yup I just got it yesterday. Came in less than a week. Awesome customer service too I emailed them after I placed the order with the discount code and they refunded the difference
@@boxingfan2469 interesting. I have never heard anything good or bad from them. I saw mr.guns and gear posted the link on Facebook to the 507k that's how I found it.
Thanks for posting. I’m waiting on my 43X and will order the 507k x2 as soon as it’s back in stock. I’m ordering the plate today thanks to you sir! Currently carrying the 43X non-MOS. I own several Glocks and prefer the TRex Arms Sidecar but no options at this time for the MOS with Light. If you have any info on compatible holsters it would be appreciated.
Once you have the 507k on the adapter plate, are you supposed to use the screws that comes with the CHPWS adapter plate? Or do you use the screws that comes with the 507k?
I belive that only happens if you file down/machine off the knobs. The plates give that extra space for the screws to work without affecting the extractor.
The s and k series are different sizes and do not fit the same footprint. The S series is similar fit the trijicon rmr footprint and the K is the shield rmsc pattern.
@@FloridaMan762 sorry if my question was misleading. I was taking about prefix HS and HE in models "HS507K X2" and "HE507K-GR X2". On their website it looks like dimension is the same for both, the only difference is that they are RED and GREEN dot respectively.
My friend had a 43x and wanted to put on red dot on it. His initial plan was to sell his old one then buy a new glock 43x mos and then put on red dot on, I recommended he send the slide off the get milled which if you compare the prices of a regular glock and a MOS glock you save a decent chunk of money if you don't buy the MOS + the adaptor plate, makes slide milling a cheaper option actually.
@@FloridaMan762 yeah not going to lie it is cheaper that way (for you guys who don't live in Communifornia) MOS model is cheaper furshur. Not for me in California though unfortunately. I have a 43x milled and in process of getting my 48 milled. Regular models for 1200-1300. MOS models go for 1600-1800. I got both mine for 1200. Purchased the 507k for $300, milled and installation cost about $150 (plus black nitride). The company I go through does a fantastic job though for a good price.
@arguy3297 they are so expensive bc they aren't on the CA handgun roster meaning it's only available used from people that owned one before moving to CA or from a cop that owned one for work. It's bs but that's the way it is.
it boils down to three ways, buying a factory cut gun for red dots, sending a slide off to get milled or buying another slide that is optics cut, overall i'd recommend sending a slide you have to get optics cut
I like the holosun, but when you add the cost of the conversation plate, you might as well step up to a "better" unit. I went cheap and ended up with the sig zero with the factory metal roll cage for a total of @$200 vs @375 for the holosun+plate.
Bought my Holosunk 507k from my gun store for $269 and used a dremel on mine works just fine about 500rds thru it still holding good zero only prob I found was I had to tighten the battery door pretty good
I'm not a fan of paying extra money for a plate like anyone else but if you start modifying things like filing down the recoil post on your glock slide, it may work, but if you don't do it right then your gonna have issues,
@@FloridaMan762 I'm not going to file them. Thats a good way to goober up the slide. Milling them is the way to go. Fast, accurate and a clean finished product and its not going to cost me a penny. A friend of mine owns a machine shop and he is going to do it for me.
If I were to do it over again, I'd buy a non mos glock 48/43x and have a company do a slide cut for the red dot I chose, probably the best way to mount your red dot and will cost the same since the mos version cost about $70 more then the non version and the difference will cover the slide cuts

Here's my 2 cents - next time remove the slide from the gun before you install a red dot, it makes the work a whole lot easier to do 👍
That’s too easy, we like to see the struggle! ✊🏾 😂
I had to file down the screws that came with the plate. One of the screws was long enough to bind on the extractor rod. This caused the extractor to lock in the open position and cause failures to extract.
How do you do it? I have the same set up and I'm having the same problem with the CHPW plate screws on the extractor plunger.
I have the same issue.

Awesome Video Brother in Arms. Where did you purchase your holosun dot?
Can you still use iron sights with the red dot mounted using the plate?
You could still get a sight picture using the trijicon 3 dots

I have the mos version too and got my plate from CHPWS too
@@Adam360_ the plate from CHPWS came with 2 screws designed for the plate and red dot
The manual says Glock 48/43x MOS should us M4x8mm flat head screws.
Very valid question. I used the holosun screws and it impacted the extractor. So i have no idea what to do
@@nickcavolli3072 use the holosun screws but you have to file down the right screw to 10mm so it's not binding the rod
Awesome video! What sights are you running? I'm having trouble finding sights that work for the 48 MOS
Its the Trijicon night sights, bright and tough series for the small frame glocks 42/43 they still fit the 43x and 48.

What exact sites are those? They are not suppresor height right? Im looking for standard size night sights for my MOS.
Go with Trijicon night sights.
Once you have the 507k on the adapter plate, are you supposed to use the screws that comes with the CHPWS adapter plate? Or do you use the screws that comes with the 507k?
the screws that come with the chpws is what I used
send off to the glock store lenny have them take the rear post mount down or do yourself if you're comfortable
it'll be a permanent modification of the slide which you may or may not be ok with
Anybody else have a problem with the volume ? i could hear a word he said

Are those sights standard height?

Will this same video (and steps) apply to the glock43x?
yes they are the same pistol the 43x has a slightly shorter barrel
Can I still get a sight picture with your irons?
Did the gun jam from the screws being to long?
nope everything ran fine, you'd probably feel it if the screws were too long as well

I mounted my 407k directly to the slide. No plate was necessary
maybe so, a change with the glock or the design of the holosun
