Optic mounting

Start with a stable interface.

Compatible optic mounting with footprint, plate, rail, hardware, mounting surface, height, and intended use verified first.

The mount is part of the sighting system

A good zero cannot rescue an unstable interface.

Footprint, plate, rail, ring, screw length, thread specification, recoil lug, height, and mounting-surface condition can all affect the setup.

Range 313 confirms the exact firearm, optic, and interface before mounting, then identifies bore sighting or live-fire zeroing as separate follow-up.

Mounting before adjustment

Connect the optic to the firearm correctly.

Optic-ready does not mean every optic fits. The system may require a specific plate, mount, ring set, screws, or height to work as intended.

The service reviews the complete interface and supplied hardware. Damaged threads, unsuitable plates, machining, sight changes, or zeroing remain separate unless approved.

Service details

What optic mounting may include.

The firearm and optic determine the interface. Exact hardware and mounting-surface condition must be verified.

01

System intake

Confirm firearm, optic, footprint, existing sights, mount or plate, and intended use.

02

Interface review

Verify rail, cut, plate, recoil features, hardware, condition, and claimed fit.

03

Surface preparation

Prepare accessible mounting surfaces within the accepted installation scope.

04

Mounting

Install the accepted optic and interface components using appropriate specifications.

05

Handoff

Review initial setup and identify bore sighting or live-fire zeroing still required.

Interface before reticle

Confirm every layer between optic and firearm.

A mounting system is only as dependable as its least compatible plate, screw, ring, rail, or surface.

01 / Identify

Confirm firearm and optic

Provide exact models, footprint, cut or rail, and intended configuration.

02 / Inventory

Review mount and hardware

Check plate, rings, screws, recoil features, tools, and instructions.

03 / Mount

Install accepted components within the defined scope.

04 / Plan

Mounting or zeroing?

Mounting secures the optic. Zeroing aligns the point of aim and point of impact through live fire.

Before you visit

Optic mounting FAQs.

Call with exact firearm, optic, mount, plate, and hardware information before purchasing or visiting.

Does optic-ready mean my optic fits directly?+

No. Many systems require a specific footprint, plate, screws, or mount, and some optic-ready firearms ship without those parts.

Can I use the screws included with the optic?+

Only if they match the exact interface and specifications. Screw length and thread can vary by plate and firearm.

Can damaged mounting threads be repaired?+

That is separate repair work and may require manufacturer or specialist service.

Will the optic co-witness with my sights?+

That depends on optic, plate, mount height, window, and sight height. It must be reviewed as a complete setup.

Is zeroing included?+

Not automatically. Mounting, bore sighting, and live-fire zeroing are distinct services.
