1. Advantages of installing a red dot sight on a pistol

Red dot sights offer several advantages to shooters, including improved target acquisition, faster target acquisition, and increased accuracy. With a red dot sight, you can focus on both the target and the red dot, without having to align traditional iron sights.

2. Choosing the right red dot sight for your Glock pistol

It's important to choose a red dot sight that's right for your pistol and your shooting needs. The Vector Optics Frenzy X 1x20x28 is an excellent choice for shooters looking for a reliable and easy-to-use red dot sight. Don't hesitate to consult comparisons and reviews to ensure you make the right choice.

3. Tools and equipment needed for installation

To install a red dot sight on your Glock MOS, you will need the following: A 4th or 5th generation Glock MOS pistol, a Vector Optics Frenzy 1x20x28 red dot sight, a Glock MOS adapter plate compatible with the Frenzy 1x20x28, a T10 Torx screwdriver, a Phillips screwdriver, a dry cloth, quality gun oil, and a torque screwdriver (if available).

4.1 Safety and preparation

Before you begin, make sure your Glock pistol is unloaded (remove the magazine and check that the chamber is empty). Follow the instructions in the Glock manual to disassemble your pistol.

4.2 Installation of the Glock MOS adapter plate

Place the slide of your pistol on a flat surface, ensuring the recoil spring guide ring overlaps the surface. Remove the Glock cover plate by unscrewing the screws with a T10 Torx screwdriver . Select the appropriate Glock MOS adapter plate for the Frenzy 1x20x28 sight (Docter Adapter No. 01 or No. 05) and position it correctly (markings should be facing upwards). Tighten the two screws to secure the adapter plate to your pistol using a Phillips screwdriver. If a torque wrench is available, the optimal torque is 1.5 Nm / 13.3 in-lb .

4.3 Mounting the Frenzy 1x20x28 red dot sight

Install the Frenzy 1-20-28 red dot sight onto the Glock No. 01 adapter plate, following the manufacturer's instructions. Ensure that the optical system screws do not protrude beyond the adapter plate (width: 2.5 mm / 0.1 inch). Tighten the red dot sight mounting screws onto the adapter plate. If you frequently need to tighten and loosen the screws, consider applying a drop of thread-locking compound (e.g., Loctite 243 ) to the screw threads.

5. Red dot sight adjustment for optimal accuracy

After installing the Frenzy 1x20x28 red dot sight on your Glock MOS, it's important to properly adjust the sight to ensure optimal accuracy when aiming and firing. Follow the red dot sight manufacturer's instructions to adjust windage and elevation to suit your needs and preferences.

6. Maintenance and cleaning of the red dot sight

To ensure the durability and proper functioning of your red dot sight, regular maintenance and cleaning are essential. Before cleaning the Glock MOS adapter plate, remove it from the pistol. Clean it only with a dry cloth. Lubricate the adapter plate with a high-quality gun oil, applying a small drop to each side and spreading the oil over the entire surface. For preventative maintenance of your pistol, refer to your Glock's owner's manual.

7. Conclusion

Installing a Frenzy 1-20-28 red dot sight on a Generation 5 Glock MOS pistol can significantly improve your accuracy and shooting experience. By following the steps outlined in this guide, you can easily install and adjust your red dot sight for optimal performance. Remember to regularly clean and maintain your red dot sight to ensure its longevity and proper operation. Enjoy your new setup and happy shooting!
