Shield Sights Slide Mount for Glock

This is a slide mount, not a plate that drops an optic into a factory cut. It fits a Glock and holds a Shield sight or a JPoint, and it sits the optic higher above the slide than a direct mount would. Extra height is what you want when the sight has to clear tall irons, when a co-witness is part of the plan, or when the slide itself was never cut for an optic.

The body is aluminum, so it adds height without adding much weight to a reciprocating slide. Shield Sights lists it as compatible with Glock without calling out individual generations or frame sizes, so check the mount against your slide before ordering - Glock has changed slide geometry more than once. For anyone already running a Shield sight and moving it over to a Glock, this is the piece that gets it there.
