Same slide cutThe Canik METE SFT, Canik METE SF and Canik METE SFT Pro share this slide's optic cut
(Canik METE optic cut (RMSc plus RMRcc or RMR)), so the optics, plates and screws below are the same for
all of them. What differs between the models is under "On this model", where there is anything.
How this slide mounts an opticCanik cuts the METE slide for two patterns at once. One is Shield RMSc, on every METE. The other changed during production: Canik lists RMRcc on earlier slides and RMR on later ones (METE SFT from serial 25CC08376, METE SFT Pro from 25CY04801, METE SFx from 26BY00001, METE SF after 25BU15401, which it words as "RMSc and RMR"). Canik's manuals say the pistol comes with three optic interfaces (numbers 1, 2 and 3): 1 and 2 take the RMSc pattern optics (Canik names Shield RMS, RMSc and SMSc, JPoint, SIG ROMEOZero, Sightmark Mini Shot A-Spec M3, Swampfox Sentinel and the Mecanik MO1), and 3 takes the RMR pattern. An optic goes on one of them, not straight onto the slide. Canik says to use only the screws that came with the pistol to mount an optic; for the RMR-pattern interface 3, only the #6-32 screws in the optic's own box, not the M3 or M4 screws packed for other footprints. Canik's product pages say a pistol's case holds two or three interfaces, so check the case. Only the RMSc pattern is listed as a fit here: the second one depends on your serial, so check it against Canik's product page before buying an RMR or RMRcc optic. Canik names no Holosun K optic, and no Canik document gives a torque for the interfaces or the optic screws.

| Canik interface 01 or 02 → RMScCanik's manual packs M4 screws with the pistol for interfaces 1 and 2, and says to use only those to install the interface bases. Interface 1 is the one Canik lists for the Shield RMS and SMS family, JPoint and AMS; 2 for the RMSc and SMSc. Canik gives no thread or torque for the optic's own screws. | Shield RMSc | Canik factory ↗ | in the box |
