Glock 47 MOS optic footprint: what red dots fit

Glock 47 MOS

The Glock 47 MOS ships optic-ready with Glock's standard Gen5 MOS pocket, which means it has a plate system rather than a fixed footprint. The plate goes into the slide, the dot goes onto the plate. Factory Plate 02 covers Trijicon RMR and Holosun 507C footprint optics and factory Plate 04 covers the Leupold DeltaPoint Pro; machined aftermarket plates add Aimpoint ACRO, Holosun 509T, Holosun EPS, and Shield RMSc / Holosun K. Because the pocket is the common Gen5 MOS cut, the G47 draws on the same plate catalog as the 17 and 19 MOS.

The Glock 47 is a Gen5 full-size crossover with a Glock 17-length slide and the Glock 19 recoil system, and it ships MOS. Because it uses the standard Gen5 MOS pocket, it shares the entire Glock MOS plate catalog with the 17, 19, 45, 34, and 49.

Glock 47 MOS optic fitment FAQ

What optic footprint does the Glock 47 MOS use?

The Glock 47 MOS ships optic-ready with Glock's standard Gen5 MOS pocket, which means it has a plate system rather than a fixed footprint. The plate goes into the slide, the dot goes onto the plate. Factory Plate 02 covers Trijicon RMR and Holosun 507C footprint optics and factory Plate 04 covers the Leupold DeltaPoint Pro; machined aftermarket plates add Aimpoint ACRO, Holosun 509T, Holosun EPS, and Shield RMSc / Holosun K. Because the pocket is the common Gen5 MOS cut, the G47 draws on the same plate catalog as the 17 and 19 MOS.

Do I need an adapter plate to mount a red dot on the Glock 47 MOS?

Yes, for almost every optic. The Glock 47 MOS mounts red dots through a plate system, so you bolt the plate matching your optic's footprint into the slide and then bolt the optic to the plate. The exceptions are optics built for that pocket, such as the C&H Direct Mount Optic for Glock MOS, which mount with no plate. Plates are available for the Trijicon RMR / Holosun 507C, Shield RMSc / Holosun K, Leupold DeltaPoint Pro, Aimpoint ACRO, Holosun 509T and Holosun EPS footprints.

Does the Holosun 507C X2 fit a Glock 47 MOS?

Yes, on a plate. The Holosun 507C X2 is a Trijicon RMR / Holosun 507C footprint optic, so it mounts on the Glock 47 MOS using a matching plate such as the Glock OEM MOS Adapter Plate 02 RMR and C&H Precision Glock MOS to RMR Steel Adapter Plate. Install the plate to the slide first, then the optic to the plate.

Does the Trijicon RMR Type 2 fit a Glock 47 MOS?

Yes, on a plate. The Trijicon RMR Type 2 is a Trijicon RMR / Holosun 507C footprint optic, so it mounts on the Glock 47 MOS using a matching plate such as the Glock OEM MOS Adapter Plate 02 RMR and C&H Precision Glock MOS to RMR Steel Adapter Plate. Install the plate to the slide first, then the optic to the plate.

Does the Holosun 507K X2 fit a Glock 47 MOS?

Yes, on a plate. The Holosun 507K X2 is a Shield RMSc / Holosun K footprint optic, so it mounts on the Glock 47 MOS using a matching plate such as the C&H Precision Glock MOS RMSc / Holosun K Steel Plate and Calculated Kinetics Glock MOS DOGTAG RMSc / K Plate. Install the plate to the slide first, then the optic to the plate.

Does the Holosun EPS Carry fit a Glock 47 MOS?

Yes, on a plate. The Holosun EPS Carry mounts on the Glock 47 MOS using a matching plate such as the C&H Precision Glock MOS RMSc / Holosun K Steel Plate and Calculated Kinetics Glock MOS DOGTAG EPS Plate. Install the plate to the slide first, then the optic to the plate.

Does a Glock 17 MOS plate fit a Glock 47?

Yes. The Glock 47 uses the same Gen5 MOS pocket as the 17 and 19 MOS, so Glock MOS plates fit it directly. Only Gen6 ORS plates are a separate, non-interchangeable family.
