Notes
The Gen5 MOS ships with four adapter plates covering the most popular optic footprints: Trijicon RMR/SRO, Leupold DeltaPoint Pro, C-More STS/STS2, and Docter/Noblex/Meopta. The MOS is slightly lighter than the standard Gen5 (625g vs 630g) due to material removed from the slide for the optic cut. MSRP is typically $50-100 more than the standard Gen5 model.
