I got this for piece for my friend's Glock 27 as he requested, but if you ask me, I say this piece is wayyy over priced. Package: It comes in a simple see through zip lock bag with the scope mount and another smaller zip lock bag containing two 2mm hex screw, the base plate, and a 2mm hex wrench (how nice of them to include this...).
There is a cut made on the rail mount to allow the standard iron sights to use be used with the mount installed. A good feature considering electronics ARE liable to fail . The mount is a standard 20mm wide weaver rail mount (like those found on the M4 RIS or sr-16). The rail is 10.5cm long, allowing you to attach pretty much any scope you wanted. Installation Installing the scope mount can be a little tricky as you'll need to take your gun apart some what.
Now comes the hardest part of removal; taking out the take down lever. Use a small screw driver to push down on the metal plate holding up the lever. As you holding down the small metal plate, proceed to push the take down lever back out (doesn't matter which direction). If you have to, get someone to push down on the take down lever while you use another small tool to push the take down lever out. With that piece out, the whole front section of the internals should slide out quite easily. Be careful to not loose the trigger spring that hooks onto the side of piece of metal (G26-31). Once this piece is removed, it's just a matter of taking out the safety switch (part no G26-56) and replacing it with the base plate (Refer to the pictures below). Make sure the base plate is inserted as show in the right hand shot. Now for reassembly.
Make sure the little piece of metal that is used to hold up the take down lever (part no. G26-42) is sitting horizontal. Slide back the large piece of metal (G26-31) back into the frame. However, make to loop one end of the trigger spring over the hole located on the right side of the large piece of metal (G26-31). With this all in place, just slide the piece of metal right back into place. Screw the screw back in, and insert the retaining pin back in it's slot. Now hold down the little piece of metal (G26-42) again, while you slide the take down lever back in. MAKE SURE that the little notch on the take down lever is facing DOWNARDS, towards the little metal plate. Once you have confirmed the take down lever is back in place, re attach the trigger spring to the hook on the trigger bar (G26-36). Now re-assemble the gun. The last part of the installation! Slide the mount over the gun (make sure you slide the mount over the protruded piece of metal which was once your safety/serial plate). Once the holes on the mount and the base plate are aligned, screw in the two hex screws with the hex wrench provided along with the kit. Volia, you have now finished installing the scope mount. NOTE: If you want to field strip the gun, you will either A). Take off the mount either by removing the two hex securing the mount OR B). Keep the slide in the lock position and unscrew the screw located at the rear end of the blow back chamber. With the screw removed, remove the rear sight. Once removed, field strip as normal. Putting the gun back together is just a matter of reversing the whole process.
Conclusion: It does what it was designed for. The mount is constructed with high quality material and has a top-notch finish. However I think it's slightly over-priced and isn't worth the retailed prices. To each and his own. by Shing Yan L. (aka Guts80)
