Title: Mounting a FastFire 3
Post by: RailRoader on December 14, 2018, 12:08:25 PM
Looking to get a FF3. Gonna have my gun drilled and tapped. Just wondering what kinda mount should I use? I was thinking about a pictanny, but wasn't sure if this was the best way. I emailed Burris and they suggested a speed bead. I don't think I'd like that option.

Good deal. I have that one on my 12 gauge they're good mounts. Very low profile.

I mounted mine on a Warne mount. Very small and pretty low...
Here's what it looks like. You just use the shorter one.
You need to find out if it mates to your receiver, i.e. is the receiver flat on top or curved?

that speedbead is the cat's ...  I have one on a SBE and I believe it to be the best turkey gun I've ever seen...
