Raptor mounts?

Does anyone know if raptor mounts went out of business?

Thanks Scott

Reflex Sight Handgun Mounts

We will likely have to evacuate soon due to fires headed our way. So we are not taking orders until



UPDATE 12/30/2020:

We are still recovering from a horrible fire in our Santa Cruz CA mountains.

We had to evacuate for a few weeks. Our house was spared unlike several of our friends homes.



We are not yet back up and running the mount production.

At this point it is unclear if we will resume operation.

That's what I saw, I was just hoping they hadn't updated their website.

Thank you

I contacted about 6 months ago and they still have no plans to re-start.

There was a poster here a couple weeks ago that looked promising. Think the post was in the Single Actions board.

I was just trying to look these up today! What a shame

For some reason it never occurred to me to maybe put optics on some of the revolvers I don’t shoot so well with open sights

I hadn't thought of it either, untill I saw the post on the longhorn holster that had one.

EGW makes something similar, I have never used their revolver mounts but do use their mounts for my auto's.

Four double action S&W's Allchin makes a great mount, sits very low. They also make a Ruger single action mount, I think they look better than the EGW's.

I have red dots on all my handguns, I cant use open sights anymore, diabetes is slowly blinding me.

I like those oversize cylinder releases. Have a couple and they provide better purchase without being obnoxious like the big Hogue (which has its place, just not on a field gun IMO).

I like them because they cover the Hillary hole, but yea the Hogue's are just plumb ugly sticking off a revolver.
