The mounting of this product was not without issue. I immediately found that there is considerable vertical flex of the mount because it is elevated a bit above the receiver. With some effort, I finally fashioned a shim of rubber electrical insulating tape that seems to have stabilized the mount. It does seems solid on the horizontal plane, so there should be no issues while in use, but some effort is need to get it properly mounted and aligned. I find the saddle mounts to be preferable, but there is not yet one available specifically for the Benelli Supernova on which I mounted this rail...least wise not one that I could find. I will recommend it, but with considerable reservation.

Just mounted this on an old Remington 870 Wingmaster. I did first clean burrs from the insides of the mounting holes to assure no extra scratches on the shotgun, and then slid it into place (after removing mounting pins from the 870). The larger mount screw slipped into place without issue. The smaller screw was about .001 over-size, something that was fixed in minutes with some quite fine sand paper. Be careful on that part as too much might cause the threads to slip. After that, mounting was a breeze, and the red dot went into place without issue. While I have not yet fired the weapon, there is no doubt that it will be a solid platform, and that it will maintain it's position. Might have to ultimately put a little thread locker on the screws, but that is all that needs done. A quite excellent product for the price.
