I need to add an adapter plate to do this and the two that seem to be the best are Bobro Engineering and C&H Precision Weapons (CHPWS). Has anyone used
either of these plates and if so, did they work for you? I'm concerned because Bobro Engineering does not supply the proper screws for installation and states the
following:
"Holosun Mounting Instructions
IMPORTANT
The Holosun series of compatible optics utilize DIFFERENT screws than what is provided by Bobro Engineering for the Trijicon RMR series.
What are the differences? The Holosun screws have a smaller diameter head (top part) than what is used to mount an RMR, and the smaller diameter head Holosun screws MUST be used. Holosun provides 2 lengths, one is 5/16” (short) and the other is 3/8” (long) you MUST use the long screw.
If you use the short (5/16”) screw you will not have enough threads engaged with the Bobro Engineering plate, and this is INCORRECT.
The long (3/8”) screws will be too long and stick out past the bottom surface of the plate. You must file or grind these screws so that they are flush with the bottom of the plate with the Holosun unit installed. This maximizes the thread engagement and is CORRECT.
The plate that Bobro Engineering makes is tapped for a 6-32 screw (for the optic) and double check that the Holosun screws that you have are also 6-32 before installation. Since Bobro Engineering provided the correct screws to mount the Trijicon RMR, it is on you to ensure that the screws you use for the Holosun are correct."
Thanks in advance for your feedback on this.
