JGW, member, from TX, United States, asked on January 18, 2018

Does anyone know if the Tango Down rubber covers for the Aimpoint micros fit these either as is or with slight modifications yet?

Expert Answer
A
Answered by Mark H., Gear Expert, from IL, United States, on February 02, 2018

I'd be surprised it the Tango Down covers for the Aimpoint are compatible. The Crossfire does come with lens covers.

Mike, member, from VA, United States, asked on February 23, 2019

Is this red dot resilient enough to hold zero on a Mossberg 590A1 shotgun? The warranty seems to imply yes, but want to ask others for their thoughts.

Expert Answer
A
Answered by Ethan C., Gear Expert, from IL, United States, on April 24, 2019

Yes, this will definitely hold up to a 12ga shotgun.

Masa, member, from FL, United States, asked on January 16, 2018

Is this red dot compatible whit a Ruger 10/22 ?

Featured Answer
A
Answered by Johnsy, member, from OR, United States, on January 17, 2018

This optic comes with 2 mounting options. One to co-witness the sights on an AR-15 and a low mount for pistols and other rifles. The Crossfire with the low mount would be a great optic for your 10/22. You will need a picatinny or weaver style rail on your 10/22 to mount it.

Q
Deputy Don, guest, from TX, United States, asked on January 26, 2019

I would like to add this red dot to my Spikes Tactical AR. Is there a Vortex quick release mount, made specifically for this red dot?

Expert Answer
A
Answered by Ethan C., Gear Expert, from IL, United States, on April 24, 2019

Vortex does not make a quick detach mount for this however it is compatible with any Aimpoint Micro T1/T2 mount so something like this would work: https://www.opticsplanet.com/american-defense-manufacturing-aimpoint-t1-micro-mount-1-piece-co-witness.html
