Optic cut seems to be very shallow judging by the photos. Also there does not seem to be room for dovetail cut after the adapter plate is installed. Rear sight seems to be the Leupold CQ Deltapoint pro attached to the red dot. That might limit the choices of back up iron sights.
Definitely would like to know more about the mounting system.

People may not see any value in this, but a billet aluminum machined frame is simply more expensive to manufature compared to polymer frames. Its not like they are charging more for a comparable polymer framed pistol like the PSA or even the very popular Shadow Systems.
Im looking at buying a billet almuminum grip for my 2011, just the grip not even the whole frame is $800+. The stock polymer grip it came with is like $350

There isn't enough room on the slide, but it looks like there is enough room at the back of the optic plate for a rear sight. The one pictured is a Leupold red dot, which for that specific sight the rear iron sight attaches to the back of the actual optic itself. I am sure they can and will make optic plates for other optics with a dovetail or rear sight attached to the optic plates.
I have a Staccato optic ready, if I want to put a RMR, SRO,Holosun optic on it the correct optic plate has the rear iron sight attached to the back of them. However I went with the Leupold DDP, and the sight attaches to the optic. I believe their design will be similar to that, with either a rear iron sight attached to the plate, or a dovetail for one in the rear of the plates. Agency Arms does the same with their optic plate system

I don’t know where people are buying groceries or pumping gas. In today’s inflationary environment $1200 for a Canadian made all metal pistol is very fair value.
Never purchased anything from BCL but am intrigued by this. Would be all over a stripped lower for sure.

With an aluminum frame. I have steel framed and polymer framed 9mm pistols. Love the fact it is made in Canada but just can’t justify it. Plus they are still working on making them. Too much doubt in my mind.

BCL deserve all kinds of support - imho they have very nice designs, aesthetically (just personal opinion) and mechanically. After getting the Bisons in 223 and 300blk, I sold my Remingtons in corresponding calibers - hat is off for the amount of thinking and engineering behind those Bisons! I hope the Foxbat will be the same. At least no infamous Glock "pig nose"
