Mounting red dot optics, such as Aimpoint red dots, on shotguns has become increasingly popular. The GG&G 1301 optic rail for Aimpoint scopes is specifically designed for the Beretta 1301 shotgun and offers the choice of a full or half ghost ring sight. Whether you're using the 1301 for hunting or in tactical self-defense situations, the ability to quickly acquire targets with a red dot proves invaluable. By adding a co-witnessing backup sight with Aimpoint models like the H-1, H-2, T-1 or T-2, you benefit from having redundancy in aiming systems. Co-witnessing is typically seamless with most setups, ensuring reliable targeting even if the electronic sight fails or loses power. Installation is straightforward, requiring just two modifications, removing the factory plastic rail and sight, then installing GG&G's rugged mounting platform for your Aimpoint Red Dot. The platform comes with a half or full ghost ring sight, which not only supports co-witnessing but also serves as a dependable backup to the battery-powered electronic device. For Aimpoint H-2 or T-2 models, it's important to remove the lens covers before installation to ensure optimal performance and visibility. This setup ensures readiness and reliability in critical situations where performance can make a life-saving difference.
