I just bought another 22, this time a Rem 552, and it has the 3/8 or 11mm dovetail on top.

It's screaming for a PA microdot, but I need you to make the bottom adapter plate to go on a 22 rail.

think of the children, who use old 22s!

BKL makes a nice Dovetail to Weaver adapter.

thanks Doc, but I've got several of those and they FN suck. I've tried them, and they don't hold well.
And I don't want to go from the rail, to the adapter, and THEN to the weaver/pic rail.  the optic sits ridiculously high.

PA needs to make a bottom plate adapter for the 22 dovetail.

How many more mini dots could PA sell if folks could put one on an old 22?

well, if I HAVE to get a C-more...

PA, there are literally millions of older 22 rifles with the 3/8 dovetail on top that cannot easily mount your excellent red dots.  And owned by old men with failing eyesight.

this is a crying shame!

Here's where I am with the CZ, using a DIP adapter rail , which cost $50.  I strongly prefer just mounting the red dot direct with an 11mm or 3/8 bottom plate on the dot.





And I just spent $150 on a used Ultradot which is an old tube style that I can use with 1" 22 groove rings for the 552.  but I would rather have a PA minidot...
