Hi,
It wasn't until I went to mount a Vortex prism sight onto a Beretta NEOS .22 pistol that I realized that I had a problem.
Since I have had no experience with "Picatinny" rails before, I thought that the sight base that came with my Vortex sight was the standard Weaver style mounting system.
I assumed that the term Picatinny Rail was a clever term coined by the G.I. Joe Tacticool crowd to describe a Weaver mounting system.
There is more to it than that I found out.
Due to the fact that the weaver slots are cut for a round thru bolt/screw and the "Picatinny" ones are square, I'm going to need an adaptor to fit this sight onto my weaver equipped NEOS peestola.
Upon looking for an adaptor, I am getting lots of hits for standard 3/8" or 11 mm dovetail to Picatinny but not actually what I am looking for.
Does anyone know where I can get an adaptor that doesn't cost an arm and a leg? Tried Vortex and having no luck with ebay either.
Maybe J.C.Whitney?
