RMSc / K footprint
Optic ready 590 with the RMSc Footprint. I paired it with the Vortex Defender CCW enclosed emitter optic. It’s supposed to be a direct fit but I feel like the optic didn’t sit flush on the recoil lugs on the receiver. I added the “1 degree shim” >!(in the video I said 1 inch, My mistake)!< but now the optic sits slightly above the lugs and it bothers me that the optic is canted forward.
For those of you with optic ready Mossbergs, which optic are you running and did you have to add a spacer/shim or plate?
My shooting buddy says he wouldn’t trust the optic if it didn’t sit perfect on the recoil lugs as that can lead to a mounting failure. >!I did make sure to torque to spec and used orange loctite!< my biggest concern was wanting to zero to 25 yards but the shim package says “use if zeroing less than 15 yards”. I know I may be over thinking. Any insight is appreciated
