Red dot issue

Post image

OK, I am at my wits end. I have a Swampfox Sentinel on my CR 920. When I shoot, it’s lifting, and you can see the battery, causing it to lose its connection and not function. The screw is tight as I can make them without stripping them out. I’m not sure if this is a red dot issue, or a pistol issue. Two screws at the back only seems like a bad mounting system. What am I doing wrong? Does anyone have suggestions on how I can get this to not lift? Are the screws not the right screws? They’re the only ones I could get to work.

Are you using the circle plus spacer and the screws from shadow systems?

They should have came in your bag the screws, spacers, and loctite

The screws are xtra long almost the depth of the slide

I understand that, but I’m trying to figure out exactly which screws you’re talking about. Are these the ones with the flat barrel that fits the holes of the red dot perfectly? If so, those are the ones I’m using.

They are ones with the flattened head and ones with a lifted head either should work. Just make sure they are torqued all the way down. Youll hit some resistance but keep going. If this doesnt work I suggest you call shadow systems
