Glad they made it right.

I finally got to the range yesterday with my new setup. First impressions about the Burris FF3 are that I'm very pleased. I shot one full cylinder without making any adjustments and the results from about 12 yds were as expected...not so good. All shots were placed low and to the left of the...

Great choice. I think the Allchin mount and the Burris FF3 are the best combination for the 617 I've seen so far. Can't wait to get to the range. Good luck with yours.

S&W 617 - check Ahrend's Retro Combat Grips - check Allchin Mount - check Burris Fastfire III - check Put it together and:

Cheapest price I found was at Brownell's which is where I got mine.

Thanks for setting me straight. I didn't realize that it screws directly to the Allchin mount. I'll cancel the 2nd order. What a dope I am. :o

I had to reorder the Burris FF3 this morning because I originally ordered the one without the mount by mistake and it was less expensive to reorder than getting the mount separately. I'll just return the wrong one but it'll probably take a week for the correct item to be delivered. For anyone...

Yep, just waiting for it to arrive.

I'll post pics as soon as the red dot is received and installed.

You're right. It should be easy to cut the Weigand mount down to size. I received the Allchin mount yesterday and it's a thing of beauty...really sleek and trim and only 1/4 inch high. I also ordered the Burris FFIII. If for some reason I'm not happy with that setup I'll return both, get a...

Unfortunately, the decision was taken out of my hands. I call the UltraDot folks this morning to try and get a definitive answer about whether or not the UD L/T would fit the Allchin mount and apparently it does not. The width of the Allchin is @ 1 inch and I was told that the UD would only fit...

Surprised you sold the 41. Always thought that was the Holy Grail of 22's. I'm leaning towards the L/T. Is the 4 MOA a concern at closer distances...10-25 yards?

I have a Model 617 revolver that I'm looking to mount a mini red dot on. I ordered an Allchin mount yesterday but am having trouble deciding on the sight. Got it pretty much narrowed down to the UltraDot L/T and the Burris Fastfire III. I really don't want to spend more on a Leupold Deltapoint...

Coincidently, I received another call from Allchin late last night (they're headquartered in L.A.) and was told that the Ultradot L/T would fit their mount so I ordered the Allchin mount today from Brownells. Now the question is whether I want the Burris Fastfire III (3 MOA) or the Ultradot L/T...

Well, I spoke to the folks at Allchin but unfortunately they couldn't give me a definitive answer as to whether or not the Ulradot sight will fit on their mount. So I'll either need to give it a try and possibly return the item if it doesn't fit or get lucky if it is compatible. I just hate...
