mounTing The STrikefire ii
To get the best results from your StrikeFire II red dot, proper mounting is
essential and, although not difficult, the correct steps must be followed.
Your firearm will need to be equipped with a Picatinny or Weaver style
rail/base. If needed, these may be purchased at most firearms dealers.
If you are unsure of your abilities, it would be best to use the services of a
qualified gunsmith.
The mounted height of the StrikeFire II will vary according to the model
you have purchased:
• Cantilever ring mount puts the optic bore center 40 mm above the
base, providing lower 1/3 co-witness with iron sights on flat top AR-15
rifles.
Cantilever Ring Option
(Lower 1/3 Co-Witness Height)
Note: It is a good practice to check mounting and base screws regularly to
be sure they haven’t loosened under field conditions.
Attaching the Ring Mount
StrikeFire II red dots come with either a cantilever ring mount or a low
ring mount. To attach the included ring mount:
1. Separate the upper ring mount cap from the lower half of the ring
mount. Then, attach the lower half
to the rail/base and make sure this
is solidly seated in the base groove.
To prevent recoil injury, position
the ring so that you have at least
four inches of eye relief.
2. Be sure the base clamp is hooked
around the outside of the rail/base.
Press downward and forward toward the muzzle. Then, firmly tighten
the base clamp hex nut.
3. Place the StrikeFire II on the lower half of the ring mount with
the adjustment control buttons facing the shooter. Position the upper
ring mount cap on top of red dot, align screw holes and insert the
ring cap screws. Tighten ring cap screws evenly until all are snug—
use caution so as not to over-tighten. Once the screws are tightened,
the StrikeFire II should not move on the rail/base.
