Well for me, you have to understand that I did not buy an MOS version and Suarez International did the milling and added the plate and the Holosun to my Glock 43x. I have a Glock 45 MOS and it came with plates and I've always been told that they are trash and the screws easily get stripped and aftermarket plates are the way to go to ensure trouble free operation.
That being said, if yours didn't come with a plate, C&H Precision offers them for your Glock.

Re: Stepped up my game.....
Good choice on the Glock 48 MOS with the Shield Arm magazines. I picked up a Glock 43X frame off of Gun Broker last year after seeing that Suarez was selling slide packages with an MRD mount. This was before Glock started offering the MOS version. I waited a couple of months for it to be delivered and it arrived just as Glock announced the MOS version of what I overpaid for from Suarez. Granted what I have is a pretty nice package, a Glock 43 sized slide with a threaded barrel and comp mounted at the end, and a Holosun 507C on the top (basically comes out to the size of the 48 slide). I later added the Shield Arm magazine release and have 8 of their magazines. I had some teething problems with the Suarez plate coming loose but finally got that sorted out and I have used it in a class with a 500 round count and no problems.
I'm sold on using red dots now and bought a Glock 45 MOS and bought a milled slide for my Glock 17. All using the Holosun MRD on it. I would stronly recommend using the C&H Precision plates for the MOS. Plenty of info out there that you can Google or look up on YouTube as to why you should. The Holosun has a "shake awake" feature that turns them on when it senses movement to help conserve battery life. I've played around with it leaving it sitting on a table for a while and seems to work as advertised. The models I have on my Glocks also have a solar panel on the top to help take advantage of powering it when used outdoors during the day. Not sure if it's a gimmick or not but figured it couldn't hurt. Based on the 50K hour battery life and solar panel, I just leave it on all the time.
