This is the pistol-slide question: your optic is cut for the Docter / Noblex footprint, and the slide in front of you is milled for the Leupold DeltaPoint Pro pattern. A Docter/Noblex optic does not share the DeltaPoint Pro cut, so it will not sit on a DPP slide.

Match the optic to the cut instead of forcing it. A docter-cut slide or plate, or a dpp-pattern optic keeps the sight seated square so it holds zero under slide cycling.
