Who makes the aftermarket guards for the FFII?  Also is he making them for the FFIII's? 


Thanks Roy

He told me he had a few for the II left, and was not going to make one for the III at this time.

If you don't live in TN,AL,GA. (They will not ship to those states). Natchezss Shooting Supply has the Burris Picatinny Protector in stock got a notice this morning $54.99....I live in TN so I still can't get one ???

I hope this question goes with this thread...can you use a guard with the FF 3 and a Marlin 336 mount ?

Bob Giese

Pretty sure it only fits is a Picatinny or Weaver Rail

Yes you can but you will need to remove the picatinny mount from the bottom of the protector.  There is one phillips head screw holding them together.  Remove the screw and then you can use it.

One more thing about the protectors.  It sounds like you will be able to buy just our protector shield (no mount) here on OG for less than $30 and hopefully much less.  We had a batch that had engraving problems so they will be available here shortly.  The factory was going to destroy them but I was able to snatch em up.  I knew you guys were having a hard time finding them.  You will need a mount and the sight but they will work with all models.  There should be a for sale thread up before too long.

also i think optics planet has them back in stock but from the looks of it they raised the price.

Thank you for thinking of us! I hope I'm able to grab one of these protectors.  One question though, will I be able to mount the protector to my picatinny mount, if so does the protector go between the sight and mount?

mudhen

Thanks!

I'll take at least 1, maybe 2  :)

BurrisOptics. PM sent.  I definitely want 2 of the protectors.  If your gonna ration them i would like one please.  FFIII just came today and I'll hold off mounting it if the protectors will be available shortly.
