Red Dot & Optic Mounts

An optic changes how you shoot a stage before it changes your scores. The mount is what decides whether that holds up under recoil, or whether your dot walks after a weekend of live fire. This range covers dovetail mounts, optic-ready plates and frame mounts for CZ Shadow 2, 1911/2011, Bul Armory and SVI Infinity pistols.

Which mount suits your pistol

The right answer starts with what your slide already has. A dovetail mount replaces the rear sight and suits a Shadow 2 that has never been cut for optics — no gunsmithing, no permanent change to the slide. An optic-ready mount is for slides already cut from the factory, and sits lower. Frame mounts for 1911/2011 and SVI platforms carry the optic on the frame rather than the slide, so the optic does not move as the slide cycles.

Match the footprint before you order. The mount has to suit your optic, not just your pistol, and footprint families are not interchangeable.

Division matters

Before you buy, check the mount against the division you shoot. IPSC Production Optics and USPSA Carry Optics both restrict how an optic may be mounted; Open Division does not. A mount that is legal in one is not automatically legal in the other, and rules move. Our USPSA Limited Optics setup guide walks through the current rules, and the cross-platform dovetail mount guide compares footprints across pistols.

Mounts and kits

Individual mounts cover CZ Shadow 2 dovetail and optic-ready fitments, a universal 1911/2011 multi mount, and dedicated Bul Armory and SVI Infinity mounts. The bundles pair a mount with the parts that go in alongside it — a recoil spring, a magazine release, grip screws — so the pistol comes apart once rather than twice. New to optics entirely? Start with upgrading your 1911/2011 with a red dot.
