Scorpion Universal Reflex Mount for Glock (V2)

The G-SURF should probably be called SURF-G, but let’s not argue about acronyms, shall we? G-SURF v2 is the most recent iteration of a popular pistol red dot mount from Strike Industries. Their latest multi-optic platform is intended to provide an RDS mounting option that doesn’t require permanent milling or custom work on your slide.

What optics is the G-Surf compatible with?

Strike Industries (SI) says they’ll fit all the following mini/micro red dot sights (MRDS), which means they should also accept any optics that share the corresponding footprints:

  • C-More
  • DeltaPoint Pro
  • Docter/Noblex
  • RMR Standard
  • Shield Standard
  • All Sig Sauer Open Reflex

That’s a pretty wide range of RDS choices and commensurate footprints.

G-SURF without (L) and with (R) its optional charging handle.

How practical is it?

Though it obviously takes up more real estate than a milled RDS, it’s still small enough for practical use in a concealed carry gun and more than compact enough for a duty gun. At just 0.64 ounces, it also won’t add any appreciable weight to your pistol. As for what handguns it will fit, it’ll be easier to explain the ones that won’t take a G-SURF than to list the ones it will.

You’ll be able to use SI’s multi-optic mount if you have any Glock of any generation in any frame except for one of the slimlines or micros. It’s not going to fit a Glock 42, Glock 43/43X, or Glock 48. Other than those four models, you’re good to go.

In addition to the more traditional features of the G-SURF, it also has an optional ambidextrous charging handle. I’m not sure this will appeal to most shooters, but I suppose it’s nice to have that option. Most everyone I know prefers to charge an RDS-equipped pistol with a traditional slide rack or one that utilizes the face of the RDS as a hook point of the blade of the hand. But, there may be some folks who prefer a handle to rack with.
