I finally got my red dot sight, and the mount on the sight is a dovetail mount, but it's too big for my B3. Does anyone know what type of mount I'll need to get? Thanks. _________________ "Enjoy Your Egg Whites"---Pam Landy   Posted: Mon Apr 05, 2010 9:07 pm rsterne Moderator Joined: 15 Jan 2008 Posts: 2998 Location: Coalmont, BC Most Red-Dots are a Weaver mount, not dovetail....

Good to know. I think I'll probably just get an adapter for right now. Thanks for the info _________________ "Enjoy Your Egg Whites"---Pam Landy   Posted: Tue Apr 06, 2010 12:46 pm themonsteraria Member Joined: 10 Mar 2010 Posts: 42 Location: Slippery Rock, PA Well, I just located a weaver-dovetail adapter, and I'm going to pick it up later today. I'll post some pics of the final set up. P.S. Just for anyone who wants to mount a weaver sight or scope on their B3-1, you have to get an adapter to go from a weaver (22mm) mount, to a dovetail (11mm) mount. The dovetail being the mount on the rifle. _________________ "Enjoy Your Egg Whites"---Pam Landy   Posted: Thu Apr 08, 2010 1:43 pm themonsteraria Member Joined: 10 Mar 2010 Posts: 42 Location: Slippery Rock, PA Here are pics as promised.
