The Reptilia SADDLE is a receiver-mounted optic mount for the Beretta 1301 and A300 shotguns, holding an Aimpoint ACRO or Steiner MPS low enough to co-witness the factory Beretta iron sights.
The lowest way to put a miniature red dot on a 1301. No rail, no riser, and it uses the screws the shotgun already came with.
Reptilia machine the SADDLE from billet 7075-T6 aluminium in MIL-STD Type III hardcoat anodising. It weighs 23 g (0.8 oz) and fits directly to the receiver of the Beretta 1301 and A300 line using the screws supplied with the shotgun, so there is no rail section, no adapter and no additional hardware in the stack.
Sitting the optic on the receiver rather than on a rail is what keeps it low, and low is what lets the factory Beretta irons co-witness through the ACRO's window. The ACRO's sealed housing is a sensible pairing on a shotgun that lives outdoors in British weather, because the emitter cannot be fouled from outside. Made in the USA.
Why shooters choose the SADDLE for Aimpoint ACRO and Steiner MPS
-
Mounts to the receiver — no rail section and no riser, so the optic sits as low as it physically can
-
Co-witnesses the factory irons — the Beretta sights stay usable through the optic window
-
ACRO footprint — Aimpoint ACRO P1, P2 and C2 and the Steiner MPS
-
Uses the shotgun's own screws — the screws supplied with the 1301 and A300 do the job
-
23 g (0.8 oz) — billet 7075-T6 aluminium in MIL-STD Type III hardcoat anodising
What the SADDLE for Aimpoint ACRO and Steiner MPS fits
Fits the Beretta 1301 and A300 line of shotguns, taking an Aimpoint ACRO P1, P2 or C2, or a Steiner MPS. It uses the mounting screws that come with the 1301 and A300, so no extra hardware is needed. This is the ACRO/MPS version. Reptilia also make a SADDLE for the Holosun 509T, which fits the same shotguns but is cut for the 509T's entirely different enclosed footprint — the two are not interchangeable, so buy on the optic you own. It will not fit any other shotgun.
