What pistols fit the Noblex Sight III / Docter Sight C?

Page last updated . Data compiled September 2026 by Andrew Terrebonne.

It uses the Docter / Noblex footprint and mounts to 76 of the 178 slides tracked here, 5 of them with no adapter plate. An open-emitter optic: a CR1632 battery, with a 3.5 / 7 MOA reticle.

No plate to buy counts the direct mounts plus the pairings whose plate normally comes in the pistol's or the optic's box. Box contents change between production runs, so check yours before counting on it.

Same slides, different optics

8 other optics on the Docter / Noblex footprint go on the same slides as the Noblex Sight III / Docter Sight C, so the table below answers for them too. What tells them apart:

All 9 Docter / Noblex optics

Sight co-witnessDepends on your front sight height, which can vary by SKU and production run within one model. Standard-height irons: no co-witness. Suppressor-height irons: normally a lower-third co-witness on a direct cut. Mounted directly, the optic sits as low as the cut allows, the best case for a co-witness. That's the typical case for this kind of optic, not a guarantee: pistols don't standardize sight and optic heights the way rifles do.
Docter / Noblex footprintThe oldest common pattern, and fading, but still the reason GLOCK MOS plate 01 exists.

Cost to mount is the optic plus the cheapest plate that fits, in approximate street-price bands from September 2026, for comparing routes. Pistols aren't priced, so when slides tie, the card names the most popular one.
