[QUOTE="ef9turbo, post: 3389834, member: 790"] The factory plates have so many drilled holes that it weakens the plates. They are thick, so when attached to the slide, offer very little threads to get set. Then the screws provided for the optic cause the same issues. You MIGHT get lucky to get 3 threads on, and if you torque to spec, it's almost guaranteed to strip the screws. When the screws back out, the plates have play between the slide and plate, causing it to flex, then break or fall off. The CHPWS plates are thinner, have LOTS of material to set properly into the slide. They also have studs that set the optic in place and provide plenty of thread to set the optic in place. Thread count to the slide and optic is probably 8-10 by memory. I have not had any issues with it. I also know that many large agencies that do run RDS are either milled or run an MOS with the CHPWS plates after extensive testing. [/QUOTE]
