Dac9976 Posted March 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 Can't find the mount on Scott country Craig. Looks like I'll have to try and put a rail on the unit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunndog Posted March 21, 2014 Report Share Posted March 21, 2014 just get yourself a bit of weaver rail and put a tripod screw through it *edit i wouldn't worry too much about an adjustable mount either tbh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silent_varmintor Posted March 21, 2014 Report Share Posted March 21, 2014 Its not on the scott and country website mate. I spoke to them on the SD forum and said to phone them about it. Only issue i found is that its not adjustable for the beam of light. Craig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JB1 Posted March 22, 2014 Report Share Posted March 22, 2014 Found them on "ant hill" scope tube rails. I'm trying to source a cheaper version of the adjustable mount now for the touch as I thought the £40 from nm was a tad on the expensive side, (tight one) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JB1 Posted March 22, 2014 Report Share Posted March 22, 2014 Patrol base,,, looks like an airsoft site, checked it visually extremely similar to the one I have. Hope its not made of play-doh ;-) GP1, its the adjustments I am after and the ability to detach. Thank you very much for the help, very kind of you to offer.

ergid Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 hi you can make one for a couple of £, all you need is one of these Universal Rifle Scope Torch Laser Mount Bracket Velcro Fitting Lamping Air gun off e Bay for less than a £5, cut it in half with a stanley knife , you then cut out a grove to match the base of the Firefly in a piece if perspex , mark a centre line and drill a whole to match the screw of the Firefly , you then drill a whole in both half's of the bracket and then attach one to the perspex along the centre line and then screw the other bracket to your desired length. you may have to place some shims to get the torch sitting square to your Archer , Simple.
