Frequently asked questions

Can I put a Docter red dot on my pistol?

Yes, if there is a plate or mount with the Docter footprint for your model. Pistols with a factory optic cut take an optic plate. Pistols without one take a red dot mount in place of the rear sight. See Optics ready plates and Red dot mounts.

Can I install the red dot myself?

Yes. Screw the red dot onto the plate or mount with the screws that come with it. Put a drop of threadlocker on each screw and tighten it to the torque given by the maker.

Is Docter the same as Vortex Venom?

Yes. The footprint has both names and is also called Noblex.
