Calculated Kinetics - DOGTAG Optic Plate for Springfield Armory

The Calculated Kinetics DOGTAG Optic Plate significantly reduces carbon build-up on your optic by utilizing an integrated Loaded Chamber Indicator. This feature helps direct gases away from the optic, minimizing residue accumulation by up to 85%. This is particularly beneficial in high-volume shooting scenarios where carbon build-up can obscure your sight picture and affect performance. By maintaining a cleaner optic, users can ensure clearer visibility and longer intervals between maintenance.

The DOGTAG Optic Plate is specifically designed to fit Springfield Armory Prodigy and Operator models, ensuring a precise match with the ACRO/ACRO footprint. This compatibility ensures that the plate integrates seamlessly with these firearms, providing a stable and reliable platform for your optic. The included hardware and design considerations make it a straightforward installation process, tailored to enhance the performance of Springfield Armory models.

While the DOGTAG Optic Plate is primarily designed for Springfield Armory models, it has also been tested with the Military Armament Corporation MAC 9 DS. However, users may need to make adjustments to ensure optimal performance with other firearms. It's important to verify compatibility and test the setup thoroughly before relying on it in critical situations.

The lower 1/3rd co-witness feature allows shooters to align their iron sights with the optic's reticle without obstruction. This setup provides a backup aiming solution in case the optic fails, ensuring continued accuracy and reliability. It is particularly useful in tactical situations where quick transitions between optic and iron sights are necessary.

The DOGTAG Optic Plate is crafted from 7075 hard anodized black material, known for its strength and durability. This material choice ensures the plate can withstand the rigors of regular use and harsh environmental conditions. The hard anodized finish adds an extra layer of protection against corrosion and wear, contributing to the longevity of the product.

The DOGTAG Optic Plate package includes all necessary hardware for installation, such as plate-to-gun and optic-to-plate screws, a Torx bit, and Vibratite. This comprehensive kit ensures that users have everything needed for a secure and proper installation. The inclusion of Vibratite helps to secure the screws in place, preventing loosening during use.

The DOGTAG Optic Plate incorporates rear irons on top of the plate, facilitating a co-witness experience with your optic. This design allows shooters to quickly align their iron sights with the optic's reticle, providing a seamless transition between the two. This is particularly advantageous in dynamic shooting environments where reliability and speed are crucial.

The DOGTAG Optic Plate is compatible with optics that use the ACRO/ACRO footprint, including popular models from Holosun and Trijicon. This compatibility ensures that users can choose from a variety of high-quality optics, allowing for customization based on personal preference and shooting requirements. Always verify the footprint of your optic to ensure proper fitment with the plate.

The DOGTAG Optic Plate enhances tactical readiness by providing a stable and reliable mounting solution for optics. Its durable construction and compatibility with popular optics ensure that shooters can maintain accuracy and speed in high-pressure situations. The co-witness capability with rear irons further supports tactical flexibility, allowing for quick transitions and backup sighting options.

When using the DOGTAG Optic Plate with firearms other than Springfield Armory models, it's important to ensure compatibility and secure fitment. Adjustments may be necessary to achieve optimal performance, and users should thoroughly test the setup before relying on it in critical situations. Consideration of the firearm's recoil and the optic's footprint is crucial to maintaining accuracy and reliability.
