can you put too big a red dot sight on a .22 target pistol? - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

usmcdoc14 · 12-27-2006, 04:18 PM

because I got bored and made a really pimp rail for my Magnum Research Mountain Eagle. And I looked around the house for a red dot sight I was not using.
and I found a 42mm tasco pro point that was not doing anything

I like it as it is nice and open but it is fucking huge

PONY_DRIVER · 12-27-2006, 04:34 PM

How's your holdover with that rig?

Azzy2000 · 12-27-2006, 04:35 PM

Run it

Post up some pics.. I have a mountain eagle also and I think I still have the scope rail laying around somewhere..

300sniper · 12-27-2006, 04:43 PM

nah. run it. i am thinking the when the new aimpoint gets here it may spend some time on top of my ruger 22/45.

usmcdoc14 · 12-27-2006, 04:51 PM

I went into the garage with some super quiets

it will make a fine sqirrrl killer

I was hitting dime sized marks at 24feet (how wide the garage is) but I need to improve my shooting as I was getting twitchy.
i need some new mags for this, and maybe make a bull barrel for it

You can still get factory new mags from Magnum Research. I dont think they make the 20 rounders anymore , but the 15's are available.

not bad actualy, the center of the optic is maybe 2.5 inches over the bore. I used an old Ruger 10/22 mount that I re-drilled and cut. fits like a charm.

yes they will tell you where you are aiming.

yes they will also tell your attacker where you are aiming

one sec

usmcdoc14 · 12-27-2006, 07:46 PM

the optics weigh almost as much as the pistol

TheRedHorseman · 12-27-2006, 07:48 PM

Ok, that's friggin goofy looking.

But it works so who cares?

Rip DeLips · 12-27-2006, 07:50 PM

That's not so big. I was imagining a big fat stupid Tasco 3-9x on it.

I can mount the Aimpoint or the EoTech on it

The optics worth twice as much as the gun

Pretty soon it will need a new barrel but it is a pimp little plinker

For those who might not know what an AN-PVS/4 is and it's mounted on an M24 for size reference.
