Adam B Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 I am about to aquire a new gun that has a Holosight mounted on it. What options do I have for mounts since I really dont want to use the Holosight. It is already drilled for the Holosight mount on both sides, 4 screws per side. Do they make a mount that will accomodate both the holosight and the c-more sights? I have an OKO and C-More that I could put on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfinney Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 Get an undrilled scope mount from anyone (lchin/Dawson etc...) and have it drilled to match your hole pattern. Don't now if anything is a direct conversion or not to that 4 hole pattern? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eric nielsen Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 Why? It only weighs 9 or 10 ounces, the dot only sits about 2.75" up from the bore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L9X25 Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 Haven't you guys heard that "Fat is where it at..." The dot was about as far off the bore as a C-more but they are "porky". They fit right in with 3" long full profile steel compensators and other heavy devices. I still have one on a shotgun and another on a carbine and they work well. The one off my pistol (with the integral mount) has been retired to the gunsafe but it could return someday. Leo Why? It only weighs 9 or 10 ounces, the dot only sits about 2.75" up from the bore. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genghis Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 I have a Holosight that weighs 11.5 oz. I could have gotten one that weights 8.8 oz for the same price, but this one takes AA's instead of little hard-to-find batteries. I shoot Limited, so right now the HWS is on my AR. If weight is such an issue, why don't more of you Open shooters use the Docter sight? I know weight slows gun speed, but it also neutralizes recoil. The extra weight might be an advantage on a lighter gun. I'm asking out of ignorance rather than argumentativeness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan Meek Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 All things considered I liked my Holosight a whole lot more than the C-Mores I currently have. Just wished EOTech would have had a better 2nd Gen Choice. Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harmon Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 Cmore serendipity! mount is one piece with the sight, light low to the bore(for a C-more) reliable as the turning of the earth Just wish the batterys lasted longer and were cheaper! when i get another open gun, its going to have the same sight i have now. serendipity, 6moa dot! the holo sight looks bulky on remington shotgun, i cant imagine ever putting one on a pistola..

Alan Meek Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 First Gen Holosight Integral mount all aluminum weight, didn't seem to be a problem lower than a Cmore Interchangeable Reticles cutting edge technology Just wished they were still made so I could put them on my Gun Just yanking harmongreers chain not to thread drift Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMC Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 Thread drifting... Has anybody seen up close the new Holosight? It seems shotgun focused with one made specifically for an 1100/1187 rib. I'd like to see one in person. I have one on my open shotgun and love it for the big window but it sits up pretty high. The new one looks lower overall but I can't find a pic of it mounted on a shotgun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L9X25 Posted August 22, 2005 Share Posted August 22, 2005 L9x25,are you bubba? from bubba's tips? lynn <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Lynn, No, I am not "Bubba Tips" but he is a good friend and we both belong to the same club.
