Calculated Kinetics Optic Plate System with Iron Sight For MAC DS 1911 Fits ACRO Footprint Anodized Finish Black MACDS1911 ACRODT UPC 850069184629
Product Description
The Calculated Kinetics DOGTAG Optic Plate System with Integrated Rear Iron Sight (MACDS1911-ACRODT) in Black is an essential mounting upgrade specifically engineered for Military Armament Corporation MAC 9 DS 1911 double-stack handguns. Designed to convert the factory slide cut to accept enclosed emitter red dot optics featuring the Aimpoint® ACRO footprint—including the Aimpoint ACRO P-1/P-2, Steiner MPS, and compatible enclosed sights—this plate delivers duty-grade optic staging for modern 2011/1911 DS platforms.
Precision CNC-machined from 6061-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum and finished with a durable matte black hard-coat anodization, the MACDS1911-ACRODT incorporates Calculated Kinetics' patented DOGTAG design. The front deflector ledge extends upward before the optic's objective lens, shielding expensive glass from expelled carbon residue, hot gasses, and ejecting brass, while doubling as a heavy-duty ledge for one-handed slide manipulation.
Featuring a built-in rear dovetail iron sight notch, this adapter plate establishes a lower 1/3 or co-witness sight picture when paired with standard suppressor/optic-height front sight blades. Engineered for rigid zero retention under aggressive recoil, the kit comes complete with custom mounting screws, installation hardware, and threadlocker for a seamless armorer installation.
