Immersive optics do a front mounted (hik) for 399. You would need to get the bracket separately. I have one as a regular scope on my .22 and it’s spot on
Does it have the menus etc to allow it to be zero’d etc as a front add on?

I don’t know, you can contact them on here @Immersive Optics
Our £399 model comes in a rifle scope configuration. To use it as a clip-on, the rifle scope eyepiece needs to be replaced with a special optical module and scope mount.
There is a good video explaining this here:
The menu does include a “clip-on zero” function, but it is only activated when the clip-on optical module is attached.
The clip-on optical module can be purchased from Optics Warehouse:
HIKMICRO Clip-On Lens System
Alternatively, you can wait two weeks, when we will have a more universal module of our own production available.
From what I can determine you might not need the Clip-On Lens (which is discounted and out of stock everywhere it seems) if you use a Rusan M52 connector?
Please see the attached picture.
1 / 2 / 3 — Rifle scope configuration
1 / 4 / 5 — Clip-on configuration
To adapt a HIK Thunder rifle scope into a clip-on, mount 2 and eyepiece 3 need to be removed. The optical clip-on module 4 and a suitable HIK, Rusan, or other compatible adapter 5, then need to be attached.
For those who already have HIK Thunder rifle scopes, Parts 4 and 5 can be searched for and purchased on line I guess.
Alternatively, you can wait a little while, as we will soon be releasing our own UK-made 4 + 5 solution. You will simply need to tell us your scope diameter, and we will take care of the rest.

Anyway of skipping item 4?
No, N4 takes the image shown on the microdisplay and projects it out as a parallel, afocal beam, so the day scope can view it as if it were a distant target scene.
Nice and budget solution is on the way.
when are the mounts available please?
By the end of June, or possibly sooner. @Woodmister, as a Nordforce owner, you’ll have the chance to receive one of the first units! The first small batch will be ready before 14/06.
that would be lovely
I Wouldn’t mind one either please when they come out. I bought the Nordforce on the assumption that I could use it as a clip on so until I get hold of the required bits it’s not allot of use to me I am afraid.
