Having a second viewing angle, that unit looks spot on and I am deffo up for one of those. I wonder what, if any, adjustment the bracket has because I think you will need some to get it just perfect. Phil Yes mate, as for adjustment I don't think there is any but I'm sure there's a way to move it a mil or so, can't see it needing to much.... Quote Link to post

Phill-W68 547 Posted October 13, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2018 Phillpot... Just found this on the nitesite website under accessories, I'm on my phone so I've just screenshot it haha.. 1 Quote Link to post
philpot 4,925 Posted October 15, 2018 Report Share Posted October 15, 2018 Here we go Phill, mission accomplished. Remove the Nitesite bracket , now with a touch of filing the top edge of the normal scope clamp, the rangefinder will fit on the scope clamp. As you can see I have fitted the clamp to a piece of 1" tube, in this case, a section of a very old sea fishing rod but a piece of polypipe or copper pipe will do perfectly well. I have then fitted on the tube, one of the fully adjustable torch clamps that can be bought on ebay or other sites. Now the complete unit can be fitted to the gun via a picatiny rail which in my case is already part of the Impact. The great thing with this is that I can set precisely the laser to the Nitesite and it will not need farting around with each time I use it. Overall, I am quite pleased with the outcome. I hope that might help Phill. Phil 1 Quote Link to post

philpot 4,925 Posted October 15, 2018 Report Share Posted October 15, 2018 Weaver or picatiny rail, same thing Phil and you can buy a Nitesite clamp on it's own, in fact there was one in the sales section. Phil 1 Quote Link to post

philpot 4,925 Posted October 23, 2018 Report Share Posted October 23, 2018 I must admit despite a few comments about Nitesite being rip off merchants, I have had great service from them, always ready to help and have done so for me as well. Good result Phill. Phil 1 Quote Link to post
