Dovetail to pic/weaver

[Wildman73]

Hello folks. I an looking for pic to weaver rails in about 8" lengths. Does someone have a source for quality rails they have used? Thank you for looking.

[Roadworthy]

I'd look on either the Leapers UTG site or Hawke.  https://www.leapers.com/  or https://us.hawkeoptics.com/riflescopes.html

[Wildman73]

Thanks for that, but a no go.

Amazon has many different lengths.
If need be you can use more than one.
This one is about 6”

There are tons out there.  Some have built in anti-droop, some don't.
Why do you need an 8 inch one?  Most scope rings will be MUCH less when mounted on the Pic rail.

Just curious. Why Picatinny to Weaver?

[Nukall856]

 Why Dove-Picrail. Maybe because picatinny mounts have less cant or lean to one side or the other. Also makes it abit easier to mount, remove and remount a scope. It does make your scope sit higher which will push your hit-rehit distance further out. I use a few of them TPO 13 rail is a good one. But like most dovetail railed mounts some need to be worked on to sit level- file until the rail or mounts mount level.

Many people don't distinguish between pic and weaver. Experience is the only thing that will make them aware.

He asked about pic to Weaver.

[Nukall856]

I know, and thought he meant nm. Picatinny is 20mm and Weaver is 21mm or the other way around  and their slot width is different, nm also...

Not 8" long but I'v been using these for years...........


For 1" scope tubes I use Weaver Quad Lock rings available in medium, high & extra high.........
use

For my 30mm tube scopes I use Vector optics 30mm Low Mark Weaver Mount Rings (also available in Low & ghigh profiles). I use this rather narrow version because my Hawke 4-16x44 30mm Compact scope has a rather short distance between the "end bells". I don't know if needed but I line with cloth electrical friction tape.............

Hi everyone and thanks so much for the replies. I am working on a airforce project and want to completely fill the dovetail 11mm 3/8 to 1/2 weaver or pic rail. Or whatever size it is! I know the difference. My question was mis worded, i apologize. With ONE piece. l used to be able to find cheesy China dov to pic on amazion, 24" lengths, you cut to fit. but alas, my google-foo can't find them anymore. Thank you again everyone.

Is there a way to edit the title to un confuse things?

[Wildman73]

Holy moly just dismounted current set up and discovered the top rail on talon p is freaking bent. I mean TWEAKED. Man what can't someone build a talon p right? Single solid tube turned not extruded!  Side cock.with bolt on rails and accepts ar shtuff. I mean exactly like it is. Only much much stronger.

Title is correct.  Text is incorrect.  No big deal.  I think we knew what he meant.

These have worked well for me. They’re also available on Amazon at a better price.

I have a set of those around here some place but I can't find them.
The thing for me is... if I'm going to use an adapter to convert dovetail to pic or weaver, why not just use dovetail rings? Basically cutting out the middle man.    Would an adapter not have the same issues that dovetail rings might have?
