Optics ready plates for Arsenal Firearms Ergal

The Arsenal Firearms Ergal is a competition pistol with a factory optics cut on the slide. The cut geometry is shared with the American Precision Firearms Ergal — a single plate fits both variants.

A slide-mounted red dot lets you aim with both eyes open and pick up the aiming point faster than iron sights, then hold it through recoil — which is why most competitors move to one. The plate is the part that makes it work: it bridges the Arsenal Firearms Ergal's mounting interface to the footprint of your chosen optic and keeps it sitting low and rigid over the bore.

Two dimensions have to line up — the cut or rail on the Arsenal Firearms Ergal and the footprint of the optic you intend to run. A few plates include an integrated rear sight to preserve a co-witness backup. Check both against your setup on the individual product page before ordering.
