Red dot mounts for Springfield

A red dot sight on a Springfield Armory pistol gives you a single aiming reference directly in your field of view on the target. The XD, XDM, and XDS series are used in Production and Standard division IPSC competition — adding an optic to the rear sight dovetail is a reversible modification that directly improves acquisition speed without changing the trigger feel or grip geometry.

A dovetail red dot mount fits directly into the rear sight dovetail on your pistol — the same cut that holds the factory rear sight. The mount replaces the rear sight and positions the optic directly above the slide in the sighting plane. Installation requires no gunsmithing and no machining: remove the rear sight, seat the mount in the dovetail, and tighten the setscrew. The modification is fully reversible — if you want to return to iron sights, you reinstall the factory rear sight and the slide is unchanged.

The dovetail specification and slide dimensions vary between Springfield models and generations — always check the individual product page to confirm the mount fits your specific pistol before ordering.
