Angled micro red-dot mount with piccatiny

Hey guys,
If you have any sort of scope on your replica, you might want to also put a red-dot on it for closer engagements. The only problem is, it needs to clear the primary optic and be high enough to give you a good sight picture.

This design addresses both of those challenges by putting the secondary optic at a 45 degree angle and a significant offset. My setup allows the micro red-dot to sit at the same height above the bore axis as the main scope. This radically speeds up transitions between them, as a only a slight rotation of the gun is needed.

I want you to be able to do the same, which is why the bundle includes 5 mount variants with different offset heights. You should be able to easily find one that suits your needs.

Picatinny rail is 35 mm long (which I believe is roughly 1.37795276 inches 😜) so any small red dot will fit.

The mount itself is held onto your gun's piccatiny rail with a printed screw with a torx T30 socket. A simple 3d printable T30 driver is also included if you don't have one 😉.

Happy printing

As per usual, my designs are fully optimized for FDM 3d printing, so unless your printer has no bridging capabilities whatsoever, you can get away with no supports. Please refer to the slicer screenshot for print orientation. My only real recommendation is that you print the screw at 0.1 mm as it has quite a fine thread. 0.2 mm layer height for the mount will suffice
