Review: Terrible design. Poor quality. - Sat crooked on my Taurus G3 TORO. One of the pins on the bottom of the sight was offset slightly and wouldn't fit into my mounting plate. Causing the optic to sit crooked and not level on the slide. Poor quality control. Returned and decided to try another one. The second one red dot glass cracked within 200 rounds. Returned that one also. The power button is located on the front and is halfway covered by your slide. Unless you have one of them mounting plates that slide into your rear iron sight, but if you have an optic cut slide, this thing is stupid hard to turn on and off. Also the adjustment screws "lock screws" were located on the rear of the optic. If you have rear iron sights you won't be able to unlock those "lock screws" to zero in your optic. You'll have to remove your rear irons and then adjust your optic, and then reinstall your rear irons while your red dot is still attached. It's just an all around poor design. Just don't even buy this. I'm telling ya. I tried 2 different dot sights. And both were messed up and didn't work or broke. These might work for airsoft guns. But not a 9mm. Maybe there's some lucky ones that actually work without breaking. But I personally didn't get one. Wasted too much time dealing with returns and refunds when I could of been having fun at the range. ## Features - INCLUDES RED DOT + DUAL MOUNTING PLATES – This listing comes with ADE red dot, a picatinny mounting plate (pre-assembled) and a pistol mounting plate for Glock that replaces the factory rear sight dovetail of all Non-MOS Glocks from Glock 17 to Glock 43 to Glock β€œ100”.

Poor quality. *by R***O on September 21, 2023* Sat crooked on my Taurus G3 TORO. One of the pins on the bottom of the sight was offset slightly and wouldn't fit into my mounting plate. Causing the optic to sit crooked and not level on the slide. Poor quality control. Returned and decided to try another one. The second one red dot glass cracked within 200 rounds.

I wanted to start upgrading my glock and wanted a quality piece with out breaking the bank, plus whatever I save on this will allow me to put towards another piece so I did my searching and found this ADE red dot to be that piece. It came with a mounting plate so I didn't have to drill my slide and had it mounted in 10mins. Super easy install and works great. I gave it 4 stars because the adjustments could of been a little more detailed like their higher end models but other than that little discomfort its great plus it comes with a cover to help it from getting scratched. I also like you can find youtube videos on it to help with any troubleshooting needed! ## Frequently Bought Together - ADE Crusader RD3-009 Red Dot + Rear Sight Optic Mounting Plate/Adapter for All Glock (Non-Optic Ready) Models & Taurus G3C – Motion Awake, 6 MOA, Dovetail Mount Base Included, Waterproof Red Dot Sight - Loctite Threadlocker Blue 242 - Removable Thread Lock Glue for Nuts, Bolts, & Fasteners, Medium Strength Screw Glue to Prevent Loosening & Corrosion - 6 ml, 1 Pack - DPP Titanium Sight Mount for Taurus G3c/GX4 Vortex Venom & Viper, Burris Fastfire, Ade --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.no/products/142289605-ade-crusader-rd3-009-red-dot-rear-sight-optic-mounting](https://www.desertcart.no/products/142289605-ade-crusader-rd3-009-red-dot-rear-sight-optic-mounting) --- *Product available on Desertcart Norway* *Store origin: NO* *Last updated: 2026-09-16*
