PrimaryBruce Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 (edited) Ryan and I had a talk about how many of you guys are still hunting for mounts. The Fastfire III/Venom models were BY FAR the most popular of all. We've decided we are going go do another run of them and make the dovetails a little bigger so hand fitment will almost certainly be necessary. They can be pre ordered NOW on the website. These next ones will be hard anodized instead of cerakoted and we hope to have them shipping in 2-3 weeks!

johnbu Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Thanks! The tanfo as a CO platform is popular. I think you're making the right decision. (Especially as it's not my money! ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk We're not making any Deltapoint mounts again. Fastfire III/Venom mounts were the only ones popular enough to make another run of.

bigbob21 Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 I think people were willing to experiment with the fastfire because it was the cheapest to get into the division... I tried the same with an old rmr i had... I love the idea of dots and want to shoot open eventually, but personally, I'm not competitive with the rmr or similarly sized red dots (smallest on market) so I took it off...I might try again with a deltapoint or rts2 as I could use those as backups for an open gun in the future.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrimaryBruce Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 Fastfire III mounts will be returning from anodizing mid-late next week. Everyone should have tracking info by this time next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scffacenter1 Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 Got mine today, looks great. My sight cut probably a little on the loose side, but that's the name of the game with these guns. I put a drop of hot glue under the mount and then used blue thread locker on the set screw, it won't go anywhere anytime soon. Thanks Bruce for seeing a need and filling it!

Gotta love Tanfo QC....we even oversized the dovetail dimensions slightly on these from the first ones...

scffacenter1 Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 (edited) Well, it was plenty tight enough for my first match. It held up better than the brand new vortex red dot mounted to it! Edited March 21, 2017 by scffacenter1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scffacenter1 Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 It flew off half way through a stage and I couldn't stop laughing, only had 1 Mike on the 12 targets left after I lost it. All I could think of is, does this still count as an optic, or am I now in open? It was funny in the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnbu Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 At least they will turn the replacement quick. The glass just popped out? Yikes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EngineerEli Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Battery popped out of the optic of a squad mate shooting CO at a recent match. He just finished the whole stage point shooting, surprisingly wasn't as terrible as I would have though, LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnbu Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Not surprising. CO shooting with a dot is basically point shooting. The dot is only visible with a good index, so pointing with a good index "should be" pretty close. I actually check index by drawing or reloading with eyes closed, then looking to see if the dot is right there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waktasz Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 Any idea if the viper and venom have the same mounting hole arrangement? I like the idea of the Viper, it's not as tall. Getting the itch to try CO...maybe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BritinUSA Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 There are pdfs on the vortex website that show the mounting diagrams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
