C&H Precision
C&H Precision solves one of the most common headaches in the pistol red dot world: footprint mismatches. Their V4 adapter plates let a Glock MOS, HK VP9, M&P, Staccato, CZ Shadow 2, or FN 509 slide accept optics it wasn't originally cut for — Trijicon RMR and SRO, Holosun's 407/507/508 series, and Aimpoint ACRO among them. C&H also builds its own pistol red dot sights, the EDC and Comp Max lines, machined and tested at its Coastal Georgia facility with a lifetime warranty on the metal housing.

What C&H Precision Solves: The Footprint Problem
Every pistol optic-cut pattern — RMR, RMSc, Holosun K/407/507/508, Aimpoint ACRO — uses a different screw pattern, or "footprint." A slide milled for one footprint can't normally accept an optic built for another. C&H Precision machines adapter plates that bridge these mismatches, letting a shooter run the red dot they actually want on a slide that wasn't originally cut for it.
C&H V4 Optic Mounting Plates
The V4 plate line covers most of the popular optic-ready pistols on the market: Glock MOS, HK VP9 Optic Ready, M&P Core 2.0, Staccato Duo, and CZ Shadow 2, each machined to accept Trijicon RMR/SRO, Holosun's 407/507/508 series, Aimpoint ACRO, and C&H's own EDC-XL and Comp optics. Confirm both your slide's factory cut and your optic's exact footprint before ordering — the plate has to match both ends.
C&H EDC and Comp Max Red Dot Sights
C&H builds its own pistol red dots alongside its adapter plates. The EDC series covers both RMR and RMSc footprints with 2 to 3 MOA dot reticles for everyday carry use, and the Comp Max is a larger-window RMR-footprint optic with a 38 MOA circle plus 2 MOA dot reticle for faster target acquisition in competition. Every C&H optic carries a lifetime warranty on the housing and a 5-year warranty on the LED illumination system.
Picatinny Risers and Rifle Mounts
Beyond pistol plates, C&H makes Picatinny riser mounts for the Trijicon RMR and Aimpoint ACRO, letting those pistol-pattern optics co-witness properly with iron sights or ride at the correct height on a rifle or shotgun rail.
Choosing the Right C&H Adapter Plate
Start with your slide's factory optic cut (the pistol's footprint), then confirm the footprint of the optic you want to run — the plate you need is defined by both. If your slide isn't milled for any optic yet, an adapter plate won't help; you'll need a slide cut or milling service first, since C&H's plates convert between existing cuts rather than adding one from scratch.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does an optic "footprint" mean?
It's the screw hole pattern used to mount an optic to a slide or plate. Different manufacturers (Trijicon, Holosun, Aimpoint) use different footprints, which is why adapter plates exist.
Can a C&H adapter plate add an optic cut to an un-milled slide?
No — adapter plates convert between existing optic cuts. A slide with no optic cut at all needs to be milled first.
What's the difference between the C&H EDC and Comp Max?
The EDC is a compact everyday-carry red dot in RMR or RMSc footprints; the Comp Max is a larger-window RMR-footprint optic built for faster target acquisition in competition.
What warranty does C&H Precision offer?
A lifetime warranty on the metal housing and adapter plates, plus a 5-year warranty on the LED illumination system in their optics.
