The history behind creating this product.

The main idea was to help gun owners in California to install Red Dot Optics on their guns that are on CA Gun Roster

Specifically for GSG 1911 / 922

The idea for this product came quite by accident

 I'm into the hobby of guns and shooting targets and I live in California,

where there are so many gun restrictions by Gavin Newsom and alike. He created a specific *gun roster* which is a list of guns you're allowed to buy in California.

 Mostly they're ancient, obsolete guns with lots of safety problems, 

but they insist that this is for our good.

 To make a long story short I bought two German handguns GSG 1911 and 922.

 Recently, There has been a trend to convert every pistol from *iron sights* to Red Dot sights, which increases accuracy and precise target shooting, but those guns that are sold in California, rather *allowed be sold in California* do not have any physical or technical ability to use those red dots unless you jump through the Hoops, machine the slide or use Red Dot Mount Plate instead of a Rear Iron Sight, or use bulky bridges you attach to the lower Picatinny Rail. The gun with that kind of a bridge becomes looking like a shotgun and of course, you’ll never find a holster for such a monster.

I tried one of those on my GSG1911

After a few shots it became loose and at some point almost fell off the slide.

 So I wanted to put a specific plate between the pistol slide and the Red Dot sight that will hold it and enable a Red Dot Sight installation.

 And that's that's how the idea came alive.

 I met a friend who had a 3D printer and he made a couple of samples for me. 

We went together to the shooting range and tested it and it worked fine.  Then we made a short video on YouTube and I made a few sales.

 I do sell through eBay, but eBay eats a lot of profits from the sale,

 so I decided to create a website and sell it directly. 

But ever since I did it there was not a single sale on that website, because I don’t know much about SEO.

Then we ran into another hurdle. We discovered that there are quite a few Red Dot mounting patterns. The one we made was for 

TRIJICON RMR / SRO, HOLOSUN 407C / 507C MOUNT FOR NOVAK

Now we are working on expanding the project

The next pattern will be for Leupold,

DELTAPOINT PRO (FITS SHIELD RMS/RMSC/SMS, JPOINT, REDFIELD ACCELERATOR, AND OPTIMA) 

Also: 

Hollosun SCS 320-GR

and

 Bushnell Electro-Optics

RXS-100 Reflex SightIt looks like this:

We’ll do testing at the range on GSG 1911 and 922 CA, then make a few prototypes.

Hoping all be done this year. Stay in touch.
