Apex Optic Mount for ACRO/MPS* Footprint Optics to Glock Gen 6 Pistols

Description

For Glock owners in California who demand precision and durability from their optic setup, the Apex Optic Mount for ACRO/MPS footprint optics is a direct-fit solution for Gen 6 pistols. This mount is machined from solid billet steel and finished with a black PVD coating for superior corrosion resistance — essential for everyday carry and range use in our climate. Priced at $75, it bridges the gap between your factory Glock Gen 6 slide and the optic you trust.

This mount is specifically engineered for slides with the Glock Gen 6 optic cut. It securely mounts any ACRO footprint optic (including Steiner MPS models) to your factory slide without modifications. The package includes two 4mm x 0.7 mounting screws with a pre-applied high-temp thread locker patch — torque them to 15 in-lb for a reliable hold. We recommend cleaning the slide surface before installation to ensure a clean, secure fit.

Why steel over aluminum? A modern 9mm pistol slide experiences roughly 3000g of acceleration per shot. Aluminum optic mounts — whether 6061 or 7075 — simply cannot withstand that force over time. In early testing, Apex found that aluminum rails tore off the base of the mount after just a few thousand rounds. Steel is the only material that delivers the long-term reliability required for a slide-mounted optic. This mount is built to last, shot after shot.

Key features and benefits:

• Direct fit for Glock Gen 6 optic-ready slides — no adapter plates needed
• Billet steel construction with black PVD finish for maximum corrosion resistance and strength
• Integrated damper in the cavity under the front of the mount reduces vibration and closes the light gap between the mount locking key and the slide
• Includes two high-strength screws with pre-applied thread locker — install and forget
• Designed and manufactured by Apex in the free state of Arizona

Compatibility notes: For first-generation Steiner MPS optics that use the original factory clamp, we recommend using the Apex Super Clamp for proper fitment. Optics shown in images are for illustration only and are not included with the mount.

Whether you are upgrading your Gen 6 Glock for competition, home defense, or duty use, this mount provides a rock-solid platform for your ACRO or MPS-style optic. No guesswork, no aftermarket slide modifications — just a direct, reliable mounting solution that holds zero under recoil. California shooters who know the value of a durable, properly fitted optic mount will appreciate the steel construction and precise engineering of this Apex product.
