Title: Red dot mount beretta a400
Post by: 2500XMAN on May 09, 2019, 03:35:56 PM
Has anyone figured out a good mounting solution to mount a rmr or fastfire red dot to these shotguns?  Without buying gaudy  scope mount from beretta? I dont want my sight mounted 1.5" above the bore.

Any thoughts???

I think Burris has a Speedbead mount for the Beretta. That would be a nice low mount. Not sure of any other mounts that would fit.

Sumtoy mount fits you just have to go to a hardware store and get M4 metric cap screw I believe it is.

I have the Burris speed bead on my benelli. Looking for something that will clamp on the dovetail grooves for easy on and off as I use this shotgun for dove also.

Anyone have a link to the sumtoy mount?

For anyone not familiar with the a400 action.
It is not drilled and tapped. It has grooves cut in the reciever top. The measure out to be just about 12mm dovetail

This gun is only 1.5 years old when did they start tapping them. I dont want the high scope mount beretta makes for this gun
