The H&K Optics Plate #3 (brand part no. 50254263) is a factory-fit optic plate built specifically for Heckler & Koch VP9 Optic Ready models, adapting the slide’s mounting pattern to accept a C-More STS2 red dot sight. Because it’s a genuine H&K part rather than a third-party adapter, it uses the same screws that hold the factory filler plate in place, so installation is a straightforward swap rather than a fitting project. H&K is direct that this plate only works with VP9 Optic Ready models, since HK USA does not cut non-Optic Ready VP9 slides for optics mounting, so confirming the slide variant before ordering matters.
