Witnessed RDS Mounting Failures

Recommended Posts

I am trying to explore some options for future red dot sight slide mounting. I am curious if you have seen any RDS mounts fail, whether it was screws shearing or anything that cause the optic to come loose. If you have seen a failure, I would be interested in what you thought the cause was as well.

 

Thank you!

I witnessed a guy get hung up on a popper at 20 yards shooting CO . After delta - miked the rest of the stage , upon unload and show clear his DPP was sideways. One mount screw sheared off. Was a CZ platform, sorry that's all the info i have. 

My DPP are frame mounted , never a issue, yet " knocks wood " but some around the club say the bolt shears is more common on slide mounted optics .

One CO guy at the club had his CZ mount drilled over sized and larger mounting bolts installed in it, he says that's the fix for slide mounted optics .
