![]() *Only use VibraTite brand VC-3 thread sealant. ![]() (*Blue isn't strong enough and Red Loctite is too strong and will result in stripped out screw heads) *Don't use Red or Blue Loctite brand thread adhesive. Trijicon does sell a completely separate sealing plate kit with the proper length screws for mounting an RMR onto the MOS, but its not specified anywhere in the Glock MOS instruction manual or in the Trijicon manual. They are too long and will cause a impingement issue with the MOS adapter plate and the slide. These are the incorrect screws to use for mounting the RMR on the MOS. For example, If you buy a Trijicon RMR there are two mounting screws included in the box with the RMR. Thats not gonna work out for everyone because I don't think any specific RDS manufacturer states exactly which screws are required for proper installation of their sight onto the MOS platform. The other issue is that Glock specifies referring to the optic sight manufacturer's suggestions on which screws to use for a RDS mounting on the MOS platform. ![]() Considering there is thousands, possibly tens of thousands of MOS Glocks in circulation currently, its safe to say that you're going to get a huge variation in what "Hand tight ONLY" means to everyone out there installing optics on these guns. Glock does not list any specific torque values in the manual, and only specifies "Hand tight ONLY". I strongly believe that the instructions included with the MOS are lacking in important info which could help MOS user avoid the commonly reported issues with the MOS platform. This may be of value to MOS shooters who are running other brand RDS like the Leupold DPP, but these suggestions are specific to mounting a Trijicon RMR onto the MOS system. Figured I'd start a thread to help folks with properly setting up their factory Glock MOS pistols with a Trijicon RMR.
