    Aimpoint ACRO

    Does anyone know how to mount an ACRO on the Foundation RDR?
    The description claims there is a mounting plate included with the rifle for an ACRO sight. I got three plates but none of them seem to fit this sight.
    Am I missing something?

    Nevermind,
    I contacted Grey Birch.
    Apparently the ACRO mount is not included with this rifle but they are sending me one for free.
    Although I have not fired this rifle, yet I am very impressed by the fit and finish and I am incredibly pleased with the professionalism at Grey Birch Solutions.
    Great communication, quick responses and more than competent customer service.

    The Fusion Receiver System (FRS) is a proprietary receiver and barrel system to Grey Birch Solutions and will come fully assembled from the factory.

    The Fusion System is assembled with job specific tools to ensure proper fitment and to ensure the correct headspace. Trying to remove the barrel will likely result in damage to the components and will void warranty on your Fusion.

    Comes with 3 adapter plates for mounting your favorite optic

    Plate 01 - Eotech / Docter / Insight / Meopta
    Plate 02 - Trijicon RMR
    Plate 04 - Leupold Delta Point

    *Red Dot Optic Not Included

    **Bolt Not Included

    ***Some slight fitment may be required on aftermarket stocks

    Funny,
    The first thing I see when I click your link in an Aimpoint ACRO.
    At least you changed the wording in the description.
    I was wondering though, why is the ACRO sight plate no longer supplied?

    We didn't change anything. The wording was always that way.

    We did how ever fail to see the obvious assumption that an Aimpoint acro plate would be expected based on the pictures on the product page.

    Below is the description of the rifel on the site i bought mine. i guess there was some confusion or miscommunication somewhere.

    Description
    The Foundation Red Dot Ready Rifle is a purpose-built rifle with speed/race gun in mind. The ultralight Foundation RDR utilizes the Foundation chassis allowing for modularity and adjustability to fine tune your set up. Length of pull, cheek height adjustment, optional forend lengths and the ability to fix or fold the stock allow the end user to customize further.

    The Foundation rifle also utilizes the brand new Fusion Receiver System. Moving away from the traditional v block design, Grey Birch has developed a threaded receiver and barrel system with the goal of increasing the accuracy and consistency of accuracy in the semi auto platform. The RDR is the world’s first purpose-built receiver allowing the user to mount a red dot directly to the receiver itself without the need of a mount. The Foundation RDR Rifle is compatible with most factory Ruger 10/22 ™ parts.
