Howdy, folks. I would appreciate it if someone who owns one of these mounts would measure and let me know the hole spacing.
I need to put an optic on my VCS 870 that I bought from Hans back in '97. The ghost ring was great back then, but not so much for my eyes now. Even so, I like the Aridus just to have the GR as backup.
The hole spacing on the current MMC rear sight base is about 1 13/16 (1.812). I am hoping that the Aridus holes either side of the GR match this, so that I need only one new hole to be drilled and tapped. I'd rather not buy the mount and then find out the holes do not match.
I did search the forum and the Web for the spacing, without success. Aridus has no specs that I could find on their site. My searching might be weak; I also could not find the Remington OEM spacing, which surely must be somewhere online.
thanks, bws
