FWIW Glock writes DO NOT run their MOS guns without the plate or the optic in place. Looked around a little. Have yet to find any other gun manufacturer writing anything about it. Think I'll pull some owners manuals to look for more information. No doubt the weight of the plate or the optic in place change the physics of the gun's operation. You guys got anything to share?

Nothing more than what you posted. I can't imagine it matters too much one way or the other as there is likely some differences in weight between red dots.

Owned a number of MOS Glocks. Used them extensively with and without optics. No change in performance - all ran excellent. My Glock 40 MOS w/optic will even reliably cycle .40 S&W.

They changed their cover plate from metal to plastic…. Can’t imagine weight or safety concerns….maybe they want the screws always installed

Spent some time looking at owner's manuals for other MOS guns. Nothing said in anything about running with the plate or the optic.
Have not personally seen one but have been told that there are MOS guns out there that the striker is exposed when the plate and optic are missing.

Yes, the Glocks I machined to mate a red dot with have some open spaces. Of course they are covered with the R-D installed. I suppose that's what their concern it...
