^^ this is what I put on mine from the get go.
Double the thread engagement and cradle the optic vs leaving air gaps front and rear and putting all the inertia and stress on two screws.

See the area in front of the RMR? This is the C&H plate front that fills in the gap between the RMR and slide.
It was a snug, not tight fit.

Yes, same plate I used. I shot 250rds last night and no issues.
This is my first red dot pistol, but I am here to stay.
That dot is such a fine aiming point, and better than a front sight post.
While zeroing at 25yds I was happy to see a very nice tight group, and it took minimal adjustment, like 3-4 clicks right and I was done.
Everything remained tight, time and more rounds will tell though.
That C&H plate would be awesome if it was made of steel and not aluminum. Aluminum isn’t a very good material for that application.
The stock MOS plate is certainly not the better option. If C&H was using balsa wood it would probably still be better.
The stock isn’t designed better but the material is better. Someone really needs to develop a plate just like C&H’s but use billet steel. I can’t believe someone hasn’t yet. I’ll keep using the stock plate until then. Haven’t had any issues with my gen 5 34 with over 4000 through it with the stock plate.
