Athena Precision Mossberg 500 / 590 Steel Red Dot Adapter Plate – Holosun K Footprint
The Athena Precision steel red dot adapter plate is designed to mount compatible Holosun K-footprint optics to drilled and tapped Mossberg 500, 590, and Shockwave receivers.
Manufactured from hardened, heat-treated 4140 alloy steel, the plate uses a black copper phosphate coating for corrosion resistance and includes the mounting hardware identified in the supplied product information.
Compatible Mossberg Platforms
The supplied specifications identify compatibility with the following Mossberg platforms when equipped with a drilled and tapped receiver:
- Mossberg 500
- Mossberg 590
- Mossberg Shockwave
Due to receiver variations, screw length may require adjustment for some individual firearms.
Holosun K Footprint Compatibility
This adapter plate is designed around the Holosun K footprint and is listed as compatible with the following optics:
- Holosun EPS
- Holosun EPS Carry
- Holosun 407K
- Holosun 507K
- Holosun SCS Carry
- Vortex Defender CCW
- Vortex Defender Enclosed
- OSight S
Optics using the same supported footprint may also fit, but compatibility should be confirmed before installation.
Hardened 4140 Alloy Steel Construction
The plate is manufactured from hardened, heat-treated 4140 alloy steel. The supplied product information identifies steel construction as providing rigidity under recoil and repeated use.
Black Copper Phosphate Finish
A black copper phosphate coating is applied to help protect the steel plate from corrosion, moisture, and wear.
Drop-In Installation
The plate is designed as a drop-in mounting solution for compatible drilled and tapped receivers. No milling is identified as required in the supplied product information.
The plate includes the required mounting hardware, including 8-40 x 0.440 screws and custom M4 x 0.7 x 10mm screws.
Installation Hardware
Important: The supplied installation information notes that the M4 x 0.7 screws can begin threading into the 8-40 receiver holes and may cross-thread the receiver if the wrong screws are used.
Use the correct screws for each mounting location. Due to receiver variations, screw length may need to be adjusted before final installation.
