Red Dot footprints

[JEVapa]

I posted this in commieland once, I think it might have been too much for the fudds. This site is a good resource for RDS footprint standards and modifications to those standards. Pretty much all questions regarding compatibility can be answered without starting a thread that ends in arguments and buffoonery, lol.

Will that Riton fit on my Hi Point?

If one would just stick with an RMR, one wouldn't need another footprint

Great resource sir

All these goddamned newfangled whizzbang gizmos, back when I was a kid we made our own sights from sticks and squirrel testicals, cause we were real men. When was the last time you saw a stick run out of batteries!? That’s what I thought.


We didn’t elect Reagan for commie electronics to take over guns!!!!

Sights? I started hunting years ago with a slingshot and marbles, had many kills of birds, few cottontails and one squirrel.

Then. I Figured I was really cool as fuckingGoddamnedhell when I got a daisy bb gun and a roll of copperheads for my 5th birthday,

My pop taught me how to load it, aim proper, squeeze trigger & hit where I aimed.

that afternoon I made my first kill with a gun. I shot & killed a sparrow.

I thought I was a sniper and shot that 2" tall bird sitting on a branch from miles away,

When I venture down to the old place I look at the lil' rise I was sitting on and the now 2' diameter blackjack I made my first gun kill on,

I still laugh a bit, cause that 5 year old's miles away first sniper daisy bb gun kill was really only an approx 7 foot shot.
