Calculated Kinetics - MAC 9 DS Optic Plate with ACRO Footprint

The primary purpose of the Calculated Kinetics MAC 9 DS Optic Plate is to provide a secure and reliable mounting solution for optics with an ACRO footprint on compatible firearms. This optic plate is specifically designed to fit the Military Armament Corporation MAC 9 DS, DS Comp, and DS Duty models. By using this plate, shooters can enhance their firearm's accuracy and target acquisition capabilities by adding high-quality optics. The plate's durable construction from 7075 hard anodized aluminum ensures longevity and resilience under various conditions.

The Angry Bear Arms front iron sight included with the MAC 9 DS Optic Plate provides a lower 1/8th co-witness with ACRO optics and a lower 1/4th co-witness with MPS optics. This co-witnessing capability allows shooters to use both their iron sights and optics simultaneously, ensuring backup sighting options in case of optic failure. The sight is specifically tailored to work with this optic plate, enhancing overall shooting accuracy and reliability.

The MAC 9 DS Optic Plate is constructed from 7075 hard anodized aluminum, known for its strength and durability. This material choice ensures that the optic plate can withstand the rigors of regular use and maintain its structural integrity over time. The hard anodized finish provides additional resistance to corrosion and wear, making it suitable for various environmental conditions.

The package for the MAC 9 DS Optic Plate includes all necessary components for installation, ensuring a seamless setup process. It comes with 6-48 x 0.25" mounting screws, a Torx bit, and a small tube of Vibratite to securely attach the plate to your firearm. Additionally, a 3D printed insert is provided for the MPS DOGTAG Optic Plate to eliminate any gaps between the optic and the plate, ensuring a snug fit.

The MAC 9 DS Optic Plate is specifically designed for use with the Military Armament Corporation MAC 9 DS, DS Comp, and DS Duty models and is not compatible with optic plates from other manufacturers. The Angry Bear Iron Sight included is also tailored to work exclusively with this plate, ensuring optimal performance and co-witnessing capabilities. Using plates not designed for this system may result in improper fit and compromised functionality.

The 3D printed insert included with the MAC 9 DS Optic Plate is specifically designed to fill any gaps between MPS optics and the plate. This ensures a secure and stable connection, preventing movement or misalignment during use. By providing a precise fit, the insert helps maintain the optic's zero and enhances the overall reliability of the setup.

The MAC 9 DS Optic Plate package includes a Torx bit and a small tube of Vibratite to assist with installation. These tools are essential for securing the plate to your firearm and ensuring a tight fit. The Vibratite acts as a thread locker, preventing screws from loosening over time due to recoil or vibration, thereby maintaining the integrity of the optic mount.

The MAC 9 DS Optic Plate offers co-witnessing capabilities that allow shooters to align their iron sights with their optics. Specifically, it provides a lower 1/8th co-witness with ACRO optics and a lower 1/4th co-witness with MPS optics. This feature is crucial for maintaining sight alignment in case the optic fails, ensuring continuous operational readiness in various shooting scenarios.

By providing a stable platform for mounting optics, the MAC 9 DS Optic Plate significantly improves shooting accuracy. The secure attachment ensures that the optic remains zeroed even under heavy recoil, allowing for precise shot placement. The ability to co-witness with iron sights further enhances accuracy by providing a reliable backup aiming method, ensuring that shooters can maintain accuracy even if the optic fails.

The use of 7075 hard anodized aluminum in the MAC 9 DS Optic Plate is significant due to its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio and resistance to wear. This material is commonly used in aerospace and military applications, where durability and performance are critical. The hard anodized finish adds an extra layer of protection against corrosion and abrasion, ensuring the plate can withstand harsh environments and prolonged use without degrading.
