hi guys, im wondering if its worth trying a red dot on my new merkal double in 9.3x74r ? and what people suggest regarding what reddot site to try and how to mount it? i have a merkal DB140 it appears to have the design to mount scope? but i dont want to put a scope on it but thought a red dot could be a less ghastly look on it and get a bit better / easier shot placement on targets over 50mtrs.

any advice, ideas, yays or nays etc is welcomed. thanks
 
I've been very impressed with a Trijicon RMR red dot that I fitted to my Kreighoff double, I found it very usable out to 100 yards, sorry I cannot comment on mounting it for you.

It is well worth the investment.

I have an unfired T rex 577 if anyone is interested in acquiring it . Absolutely spotless, flawless and well kept . It's rare as it gets . Mouth watering ? Let me know if you feel like making an offer .

I need to know if this is legit. Photo with today's paper would do it.

Thanks

I just saw Budsgunshop.com has both the guide gun and the African for $1150. FWIW - I bought both and decided to use the Guide gun - I restocked it in a Bell and Carlson stock and I added the Alaska arms floor plate to add a round. I wanted the shorter barrel as I will use a suppressor. I wont go lower than $1100, but I will ship it and no sales tax.

Let me know if you are interested
