Kingman Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 I am back to using slide mounted JPoints on my open guns, but am building a modified gun and I think frame mounted would be easier to get into the box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BritinUSA Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 (edited) ...I think frame mounted would be easier to get into the box. I agree, If it was mounted ahead of the ejection port then the gun could be angled inside the box, that allows for a longer grip/barrel length.

Thanks Chuck! contacted JoJo and he replied back that he will have the JPoint site mount next week in production. But now I have this little devil in my left ear whispering something about a serendipity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingman Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 I will be all over that frame mounted Jpoint set up. Especially if it stays that far in front of the ejection port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt2ace Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 (edited) My new gun came from Dean Makos with a very small, off frame, sight mount for the DrDot. I have no idea who made it, but you might get in touch with Dean and see if he can help you out. This mount is about as close to the slide as you can get. I had to have a slight relief cut put in the bottom to stop a bit of rubbing between the mount and the slide.

Kingman Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 matt, what caliber is it and how do you do with major loads. I like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt2ace Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 (edited) matt, what caliber is it and how do you do with major loads. I like that. 9mm major.......170 PF running 7.8gr Silhouette, 124gr MGD, 1.16 OAL. The dot moves vertically but is always visible in the optic. Recoil, IMO, is soft and very controllable. I have shot about 1500 rounds through it so far, maybe 1-2 times where a case was caught between the slide and sight mount. I am coming from 5 years of shooting GLOCK open (JP on the slide) so I am still get used to the difference in grip, recoil, etc., etc. Edited June 21, 2008 by matt2ace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingman Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 give us some details on the build. I like it. Looks like a 5" tribrid 2 barrel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt2ace Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 I honestly don't have a lot of details on the build, atleast in terms of what specific parts where used. The gun shoots everything from white-box to full major 0 without any spring change. Trigger is crisp as glass at just over 2lb. I came across the gun almost accidentally and purchased it used from Dean Makos. He had shot a few hundred rounds through it and decided to sell it. I cannot get the smiths name from Dean so you would have to contact him for more details. Here's a shot of the ports. The gun is out to the plater (elecrodeless-nickel) right now so I don't have any better pix right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingman Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 I would think it is a keal gun if it was deans. Answered a couple questions though it is not a tribrid barrel. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross Carter Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 Sorry I've been MIA lately, lots of problems keeping me away from work. Anyway things are getting better. I hope this is not violating any rules if it is mod please delete it. I started using the jpoint and doc sights as soon as they came out and have tried many different mounting systems. This one I showed at a Nationals about 10 years ago and no one seemed interested, the comments were mostly " the screen is too small". The advantage of having the dot at close to the same height as iron sights didn't seem popular. So I offered it only as an option on a complete gun, there are a few out there. From reading the forum it looks like the mini red dots are getting more interest so I would consdier producing this mount if there was enough interest. It is the absolute lowest and best mounting system I tried but does require a little machining on the frame. My most reliable email is rosscarter@cox.net, the web site is still down hopefully for not much longer. Ross Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
want2race Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 Now THAT is where it SHOULD be located. To think, it was done 10 years ago. What's a little frame modification? As long as front cocking serrations are used on the slide, no need for a cocking lever or extended thumb shield. Very nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingman Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 now that is sort of nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radical Precision Designs Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 (edited) My new gun came from Dean Makos with a very small, off frame, sight mount for the DrDot. I have no idea who made it, but you might get in touch with Dean and see if he can help you out. This mount is about as close to the slide as you can get. I had to have a slight relief cut put in the bottom to stop a bit of rubbing between the mount and the slide. I believe that particular frame mounted base was built by our Shop on a special order for Dean, since it only had three mounting holes. Since then we have been building similar bases/mounts for Dean utilizing the existing five mounting holes typical to a C-More. Dean (or we) also have it available for right side mounting where it can utilize the right side holes from a serendipity, or should you want to use a holster where the side (on the left side) mount can interfere with holstering. It is built in two different positioning options. The most popular positioning/style places the rear of the mount flush with the barrel's hood at ful opening, eliminating any obtruction to extraction, keeps the lens clean, and locates the dot around the same area as the C-More which helps on the transition. We also experimented with absolute rear mounting, but found that on many guns the empties would hit the lens or edges of the sight and the lens got scratched and/or dirty quickly. Give Dean a call or send me a PM for further information. Edited August 11, 2008 by Radical Precision Designs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fastshooter03 Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 Anybody making a mount for the Fastfire? I'm getting sick of the orange dot and blurry FOV of my optima. I can make my own but do I want to.... not really. Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can make my own but do I want to.... not really. Nick http://jvdynamics.com/custom_guns/new_parts.php Fastfire has the same mounting points as a DrDot (or so I am told). This mount might need a notch cut on the left side to allow room for the on/off switch on the Fastfire. I would contact JV and see what they can do for you. I believe that Radical Precision might also be willing to modify their version of the Dr mount for a fastfire if any mods are needed.

fastshooter03 Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 Looks like a neat mount. I would have to add a couple mounting holes or chop the mount. I'm done shooting for the year so I'll start saving up for spring improvements. Thanks, Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shooterbenedetto Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 I know that carter custom has done one but I cant get ahold of him.
