Hey guys, looking to sort of pimp this pistol a little bit more. I've found a suppressed .22 to be a most effective tool. Recently I acquired a MKIII with lightweight polymer frame and a TacSol lightweight upper. Below is a pic. It came to me with a Burris Fastfire mounted via Picatinny. I'm considering changing to an RMR or RMRCC I suppose from a perceived perception of fragility of the Burris.
Question 1: How do you feel about the Burris on a utility pistol that would likely be carried hunting, camping, etc in something like a Hill People Gear chest bag?
Question 2: From a mounting perspective, I like the more seamless, smaller footprint, and lighter weight mount option of something like the MaddMacs mount: https://maddmacsprecisiontactical.co...on-rmrreg.html
Question: Would you mount rearward of or directly above the ejection port? Madd Macs offers both options. As the pistol will primarily be fired suppressed and .22 is dirty in general, I lean more towards the over-ejection port mount. However, aesthetically and from a user interface I prefer the more rear-mounted option. Thoughts?
Today I'm sending the pistol off to have a rail attached under the barrel for mounting a Surefire X-series light so I've got a little time to decide. Once complete I'm very excited about the form factor and capabilities of the package. (the light in the pic below is just mocked up)
