Seeking an 1895 Red Dot Mount

[LesPT]

Looking at getting a Holosun 4/5 series red dot and cannot locate a mount anywhere. I am not looking for a p-rail, but rather just the small Marlin 1895 mounting plate similar to this:

Thughts or ideas?

Thanks ahead!

How about the Vortex Enclosed Shotgun Red Dot? My eyes are still pretty good for my age but this red dot would be my first choice.

I actually like this but why hasnt there been any other videos made? it looks terrible on his lever because of the gun design but I dont think the Trapper would suffer the same. If I knew it would fit I might just jump at this...

Definitely get a Holosun. Vortex sells warranties... I currently own at least 5 Holosun optics, and have owned a bunch more (the only reason I do not have them is because I have upgraded everything to enclosed. I have never had a single failure with any of them. Every vortex I've own or tried has been a steaming pile.

I linked an article on the Vortex and if you scroll all the way to near the end of the article he mounts it to his Rossi 30-30 and Marlin 336.

When I get one and it'll be the multi reticle version, I know I can mount it to any of my shotguns should I choose.

Yes... I see the front metal portion of the Viper sticking up in the video...

So I have one on the way. The specs for both say that 3 screws should fit perfectly. I'll post piks and opinion.

Nice! When you do post pictures it may push me over the edge to get one sooner than later.

I will. I had actually exchanged a few e-mails with Vortex before jumping in and buying this as I would have considered doing a full review with piks and video as I have websites and social media that can accomodate such... No luck! So I went about it on my own.

The reason I was so interersted in this is that I want to avoid the p-rail if at all possible. Right now this is the only route.

It was worth a try.
