Looking to mount a red dot sight on your pistol or rifle but not sure which one fits? You’re not alone. With more optics and mounting patterns on the market than ever before, figuring out what works with what can feel like trying to solve a puzzle with missing pieces.

That’s exactly why we built this guide.

Whether you’re upgrading a handgun with a micro red dot or dialing in your rifle setup with a compact reflex sight, it all starts with knowing the footprint—the mounting pattern that your optic uses to attach to the slide, mount, or plate. Choose wrong, and you’ll end up with something that doesn’t fit, doesn’t hold zero, or just doesn’t work at all.

This page breaks down the most common red dot and micro red dot footprints used across the firearm industry in 2025. We’ve grouped compatible optics together under their respective footprint to help you quickly identify what fits your firearm or mounting system.

So whether you’re running an MOS-cut Glock, a direct milled slide, or swapping mounts on a rifle, this reference makes it easy to match optics to platforms without guesswork.

If you’re unsure about a specific optic or footprint, feel free to reach out—we’re always happy to help you get it right the first time. Just keep in mind, this list isn’t all-inclusive. New optics hit the market constantly, and manufacturers occasionally revise mounting patterns or introduce entirely new footprints. We’ll do our best to keep this guide updated, but when in doubt, ALWAYS double-check with the manufacture.
