    Who makes a nice mount that puts a rail section on a 30mm tube? Want to add a red dot to my LR setup but not on a 45 degree rail mount, wanna short rail section right on the scope tube

    What rifle?

    I have an AR mount that one of the upper caps is a rail for red dot. I used it to mount a Burris Fast Fire.

    Those are nice, as they lower the red dot.

    My rings put it up higher.

    These are what I used on my last 2 scope mounts, one on a 5.56 and the other on a 7.62 (you can likely find them for less elsewhere?)

    I was VERY a pleasantly surprised by how fast Optics Planet got my last couple orders to me (don’t know if all the complaints got back to anyone in a position to improve things, just know I was quite relieved I didn’t encounter any delays in getting delivery. Ymmv.)

    Looking for a tube mounted rail section. I know they make em I just can’t find one. Non integral to the scope mount.
    Just google 30mm tube instead of 1"

    \Burris AR-PEPR Tactical Riflescope Rings with Mount

    Thanks, now I do not have to dig out the rifle figure out what I used.

    PEPR mounts.

    My first one was with a Burris MTAC/FastFire combo from Sport Optics.

    Hey, don’t get more pouty than you already were cause no one listened to your soft edged snark
    LOL!
    Then let me be clear. You start a thread with an ambiguous title. Once we fools finally figure out what it is you want us to look for because you are too important or too lazy to look for yourself, you then have the temerity to to ridicule us missing your expectations? Got it.
