  • Disclaimer for Dovetail Scope Mounts: Compatibility Alert

     

    Dovetail mounts are crafted to offer broad compatibility with most dovetail rails. However, it's essential to note exceptions in rail dimensions used by specific gun manufacturers.

     

    Manufacturers like BSA and GAMO employ a 13mm dovetail rail (measured at 13.5mm), while FX and Walther utilize a 9.5mm dovetail rail. These dimensions differ from the standard 11mm dovetail scope mounts.

     

    Fitting standard dovetail mounts onto oversized dovetail rails may lead to incorrect gun/mount/scope alignment. On the other hand, fitting them onto undersized rails could result in sliding or rocking when installed.

     

    For firearms featuring these over/under-sized dovetail rails, Vector Air recommends either utilizing equal pull mounts like BKL or considering the conversion to the modern and standardized Picatinny RIS (Rail Integration System). Ensuring proper compatibility guarantees an optimal shooting experience.

    Scope recoil block

    An absolute must have for anyone using a scope on a springer. Works brilliantly on my HW77 with 11mm dovetail grooves.

    Hi Paul,

    Absolutely — the recoil stopper is essential on springers and we do bang on about it a lot (apparently some people enjoy ignoring good advice – who knew? 🤷‍♂️). Glad it’s doing the job on your HW77 with the 11mm dovetail.


    Also — we’re genuinely curious how you managed to fit QD mounts to the dovetail… we’re assuming black magic, witchcraft, or clip-in adaptors?. Nice work either way.

    Perfect for the job.

    Ordered the scope recoil stopper to prevent the red dot sight fitted to my HW45 pistol from moving during the firing cycle. The stopper is well made and is easy to fit.

    The recoil stopper arrived within a few days of placing the order.

    Hi Peter,

    Glad to hear the recoil stopper did the trick! They’re definitely a must-have for springers or any recoiling setup with a dovetail rail—especially when red dots start wandering.


    It’s a solid, no-fuss solution and a great budget-friendly alternative to a full Picatinny conversion. Thanks for the feedback!
