Franchi 20 gauge and 336 Mount #3022602 01/24/20 08:11 PM 01/24/20 08:11 PM

The Franchi is drilled and tapped but the two back holes on the shotgun don’t match the longitudinal holes on the mount. Also, the mount doesn't match the curvature on the top of the shotgun. It looks like it would rock even if I could mount the bracket on the shotgun. I thought this was the mount to buy?

Tell him what gun and optic. He sent me mine and said if it didn't fit he would make me another one. Yes it fits the top curve of the gun.took less than a week to get here.

I guess I assumed that if the 336 would fit the Venom that it would also fit a drilled and tapped gun. Figured they would somehow be standardized. I’m going to call Sumtoy on Monday and see if they can build me a custom mount that will fit the holes I already have.

When you get yours, could you put it next to the 336 and post a pic of the difference? Last edited by foldemup; 01/25/20 09:10 PM. If you want to always win, never play anyone better than you!

I held the 336 up to the shotgun and it seemed like it would extend over the edge like it didn’t match the contour of the gun.

It will fit the contour and screw pattern. You can but it sits much higher than the sumtoy. Sumtoy will be the lowest and best fit to the contour of the barrel.

I wouldn’t want any extra pieces elevating the sight. I want it as low as possible. If you want to always win, never play anyone better than you!
