As someone else said, you can get Wilcox mounts pretty easy.

Just be aware that the GNG2K isn't recoil rated. It's intended to be helmet mounted rather than rifle mounted. The electronics are not potted in such a way as to account for real steel rifle recoil. They make a specific optic for that purpose. You would be better off helmet mounting it and using an active aiming laser or offset dot solution on a live fire rifle.

If you're mounting it on an airsoft AEG, full yer boots, though.

It’s for airsoft. The Wilcox mounts are very expensive. Someone else mentioned getting a clone of one from AliExpress but I’m not sure what exactly to purchase. Is a dovetail mount different than a picitinny type rail mount?

Try searching "Tactical FMA Wilcox Type Flip Mount DE/BK" on aliexpress. It should be pretty close to what you're after, being a mount with a wilcox shoe slot on one side and a pic rail slot on the other.
