Core DeadBox Reflex Sight w/ Red Dot

I use a red-dot sight made by a company called BSA (as Bruce A Frank has shown above , 30 mm Black), and as Bruce said , with a sight , you should be using it with both eyes open .

 I play with it mounted directly on top of my 98 Custom (with a RD centerfeed blocking it) , and if that wasnt enough , I leave the  front cap on . No parallax problems and I dont have to worry about taking a hit directly on the front lense . I have taken front lense hits, no damage. Walmart carries them for about  $20.00 (so no biggie even if I do manage to break it)

The sighting system, ie ; red-dot type sights are for quick target aquisition in low light situations (practically useless in full daylight)

Its a good sight , what can I say .

Well, no and yes. Both the 98C and the A-5 have grooves on the top of the receiver to accept either the 7/8" clamp mount (Weaver) or the 3/8" mount. The BSA sight with the 3/8" clamp will bolt right on.

Now, the other BAS Red Dot sight, though it's clamp claw fits the 7/8 groove, there is a cross bolt on one end that fits through a cross groove in the usual Weaver mount plate. This is to keep the sight from moving under heavy recoil. The top of the Tippmann markers do not have a cross groove. So, either you have to file a notch in the marker body or move the cross bolt (easy to do) to a new hole you have to drill.

The easy way is to buy the silver colored one which is designed for 22 rifles (low recoil) so all you have to do is clamp it on. (you can see the difference in the pictures I posted)

There are adapters out there that will allow you to fit either clamp to the marker easily. There are also raised mounts, mil-sim types, that clamp to the marker grooves and accept either sight. And Lapco makes an off-set mount that will accept either the Weaver or 3/8 system.
