Anyone got any pictures or what the best mounting system would be for one?

Not sure it's the best, but this is what I ran for a while. It is however on a SBE I and not a II.

Thanks for the picture.  Any reason when the mount is so far forward?

Yes,

I used a mount I already had, which only has two slots on it, one up front, and one in the back. I liked the Eotech up front, more than I liked it back. Preferably, a Picatinny mount would be better. I just used what I had. Also, being a SBE I, I had to have the barrel drilled/tapped.

I ran that exact gun and a Eotech 512 for part of last season.  On mine the receiver was drilled and tapped right from the factory, I assume yours is too?? I found a weaver base to fit almost perfectly but there wasn't a cross slot on the base to put the sight exactly where I wanted it so I just made one right where it needed to be with a chainsaw file and worked great.  Hope this helps.

Why did you take it off?

This should take care of that problem.

That's the base I should of gotten. I never seen that one before, looks like would work perfect.

I took off the Eotech to put it on my 870.  Always been a pump gun fan.

I did the same. I put mine on a different gun. My regular turkey gun already has a 553 Eotech on it. Do a search for a M2 and my user name to see it.

Mounted an Aimpoint 9000SC red dot on my SBE 2 with that base.
