The Burris FastFire Picatinny Protector Mount puts a Burris FastFire red dot on a standard Picatinny rail and surrounds the optic body with integral protective sidewalls. The ears take hits from bumps, drops and barricades that would otherwise land on the optic housing.
It accepts the Burris FastFire footprint and clamps to standard Picatinny rails. The base is machined from aluminum with a black finish, and mounting hardware is included.
Features:
The tradeoff is size: the protector ears add some bulk and width around the optic in exchange for impact protection. It makes the most sense on a rifle, shotgun or carbine that gets carried in a vehicle, knocked around in the field, or used as a hard-use training gun.
Before you buy, confirm your red dot uses the Burris FastFire footprint, since other micro dots may not line up with the screw holes. Once installed, tighten the rail clamp, use a thread locker on the optic screws, and confirm zero at the range. Recheck the screws after the first few range sessions.
