Benelli M2 Rib Mount

[Ghost-Recon]

I want to mount a red dot on my Benelli M2.
It is not drilled or tapped, thus my only option is a rib mount.
Who has done this and what mount do you use?

Most rib mounts to fit a red dot will probably also require drilling and tapping

Like the Arredondo rib mount i got with ith my benelli, but never used it as has a picatinny on my.m2

Burris do a mount that fits between the stock and action and then you can fit a speedbead sight to it

My SBE2 came with four holes drilled in the rib of the action, stopped with small black rubber stoppers. They were very flush, and could easily be overlooked.

My benelli m2 field came with rail mounts

Got a speed bead on my supernova and I like it

@scrumbag - are you using the Burris FastFire III with the SpeedBead mount?
I believe the SB mount has the Doctor footprint, so there are a multitude of possibilities when it comes to optic choice?

That’s right. Will dig out pictures
