Ganado Posted December 26, 2003 Share Posted December 26, 2003 Curious - is the Docter sight the same one as the one CZ called the Fire Point that was sold mounted on some of their CZ75's? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan550 Posted December 26, 2003 Share Posted December 26, 2003 They're from different mfgs but use the same mounting bracket as the old Tasco. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flexmoney Posted December 26, 2003 Share Posted December 26, 2003 I thought the Doctor used different mounts than the Optima/Firepoint? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross Carter Posted December 26, 2003 Share Posted December 26, 2003 It's not the same sight as the firepoint or the Optima, JP has a version of that sight. The Docter is a little longer and the mounting studs are a little further apart, the bolt spacing is close though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diehli Posted December 27, 2003 Share Posted December 27, 2003 The Docter also has an aluminum body and glass lens where the Firepoint/Optima/JP's are plastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bompa Posted December 27, 2003 Share Posted December 27, 2003 In a dim indoor range the Docter has a much brighter dot altho the JP sight seems to be better than the Optima.. There is no interchangability of mounts,just a slight similarity.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geo Posted December 28, 2003 Share Posted December 28, 2003 Tasco Optima and JP are the same sight, Optima got up to 5 revisions before Tasco went belly up. It did come out as a very expensive (299. )sight and before they went out came down to 129.00 1.6" Long Doctor is made in the old Carl Zeiss plant. it is a much higher quality scope. Alum body, 1.8" long. smaller pins to hold it down Coated glass lens. set screws to hold the adjustment once it is sighted in. geo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BerettaRacer Posted December 28, 2003 Share Posted December 28, 2003 The Docter has also been revised several times, I believe the are on rev 3 now. Early ones had individual wires in an X configuration underneath and keep breaking, later ones have ribbon wiring, but I have not heard reliability results from these.

bompa Posted December 30, 2003 Share Posted December 30, 2003 I have had a third gen. docter sight on a CZ75b for about a year and it has performed just great.. I would rather have a lower mount than the factory job but don't want to mill the slide at this time.. I believe that the mount can be modified a bit and heigth reduced about 1/8 in.. Will try soon..
