Flush Fit, No Fuss: XS Sights Minimalist OR & Optic Plate Bundle

Installation

Next up was dry fitting everything to the slide. My first observation, unlike many OEM optic plates, XS’s fit flush in the cut. There was no gap, visible or otherwise, between the slide and the plate’s base.

Once I saw that everything fit together as designed, I removed them from the slide and de-greased them. After all the parts had dried and been wiped down, I applied the blue threadlocker per the install video. The installation went smoothly. Both screws holding the plate to the slide were witness marked with a paint pen.
