Rail for SBEII

pabuckslayer08 · May 28, 2013, 08:47 PM

Im working on putting together a new turkey gun and have decided Im going with the 24" SBEII with the steady shot grip. I also want to put a red dot on it and I like the Burris Fast Sight but it says it needs picatinny style mounting, all I can find for the SBEII is Weaver style mounting systems which is the 93a mount. Anyone know what picatinny rail I need for on this gun.

Thanks

You can mount a Burris FF on a Weaver rail. The Weaver rails are almost all aluminum. If there isn't a slot where you need one, just file one in. I do it all the time with my red dots on my target guns. It's no big deal.
