Freddie the Swede Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 Here is a picture from a match in Eskilstuna, Sweden (Level II). There where a guy who had made hos own mount in an pretty unusual way. I know him and he says it works quite OK. Just liked to share... //Freddie the Swede Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nolan Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 A California shooter, the late Ray Echols, had an upside down C-More mount on his open gun in late 1999, early 2000. We called his mount the "Enterprise" because it resembled the starship Enterprise in Star Trek. Nolan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aircooled6racer Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 (edited) Hello: Benny Hill told me about a guy who did that a long time ago mounting the C-More upside down to lower the dot. Seems like alot of weight up high to me. I'll stick with my 90 degree mounts. Thanks, Eric Edited April 2, 2013 by Aircooled6racer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desmo412 Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 I agree that it does look cool, but I don't think that would get the dot any lower to the bore than the sideways mount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OperationHitFactor Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 How can one sight in the dot? Down is up, left is right, right is left, and up is down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChuckS Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 How can one sight in the dot? Down is up, left is right, right is left, and up is down Which, of course, is different from left is up, right is down, up is right and down is left... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrbet83 Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 (edited) Cool for trying it, but no advantage over a sideways mounted c more. Not to mention you have more material (weight) to get the c more up that high and mounted upside down, your center of gravity/balance of the gun is changed and you still have the vision barrier on one side due to the mount, but now you've added another vision barrier on top/above, which would probably be an issue when your shooting stacked targets, swingers, bobbers, Texas stars etc. Edited April 3, 2013 by jrbet83 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YOu have the optic body on top and the gun onthe bottom and a narrow window between them. Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrett Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 Yep. Old is new again. The upside down mounts were around before anyone came up with the sideways mounts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonglee0507 Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 (edited) we also have that https://www.facebook...&type=2 Edited April 6, 2013 by bonglee0507 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akkid17 Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 I'd like to look through it. Might be like a tunnel that grabs the eye, but if if was done many years ago and didn't work it probably won't be sticking around or gaining ground. Just look at piston driven AR's...
