Tactacam mounting issues

I have a mossberg 535 tactical Turkey.  Due to the short barrel I can't comfortably mount a POV cam on the barrel.  It's a pump so I can't zip tie it to the reciever. so that left me with the picatinny rail mount.  I have a nikon spur for the optics and it slightly impedes my shot window but I can make it work. It seems there is no sure way to mount the tactacam on this gun. With this optic. Anyone else have issues mounting the tactacam?

How's about the shotgun barrel mount tactacam makes for their cams?  Clamps to the underside of the barrel and stays out of the way, but gives you a down the barrel view...

Well, considering that's the preferred method to use the tactacam, I'm not surprised.   Lol

Iv had a couple other barrel cams and they do work but I don't like reaching down to turn it on.  I got busted last year turning one on. I like it up near the reciever it's just easier.

The tactacam runs on a 9 or 10 minute loop and will record those video blocks until the card is full. I run a 32 gig high speed card in all of mine and they'll run for hours until full.  When I strike a bird I think will work I turn on the cams and let em run...

My other 2 iv had ran in 5 min loops and the crappiest one (shall remain nameless) it would randomly cut off even while recording. This is my first go with the tactacam but I believe itl do fine thanks
