Xero mount for picatinny, or just Arca?

[fatelvis]

I just bought a Xero chronograph, and would like to put a rail adapter on my rifles, but they all have Picatinny rails, and not Arca. Does anybody make a rail yet for the Picatinny?

I believe this voids the warranty. RECOIL!

I've yet to see one & I've looked around, as my buddy is dying for me to purchase the Xero.

As an aside, I freakin' hate Arca. Why in God's name did something else have to come along after Mlok became the new standard, after keymod...after picatinny...after Weaver? Why does the wheel have to keep being reinvented???

The Swiss-Arca mount is studier and more solid than the rest. I would rather hate those that make a neat gizmo that didn't make it available for all the different mounting systems, they are all popular enough to sell.

I just went line-for-line thru my owners manual, and it says nothing about that. you know of something that isint printed ?

I thought I had seen a post about this.....

Garmin Xero Chronograph Mounts!

Hey guys! I have a part that I am selling that is a 3D-printed mount for the new Garmin Chronograph. It features a self-centering rail on top and an integrated ARCA clamp. It also has an ARCA rail on the bottom so it can be tripod-mounted as well. I will also have Picatinny and MLOK versions...

Apparently the recoil of a compound bow is ok, but not from a rifle!

And, what about the blast from a muzzle brake?

On the rifle may be easier on it than 10" back and to the side.

Could be, I'll find out shortly, although my brake is a Hellfire Match that doesn't have much back pressure.

I keep mine on the rifle because I can more easily keep the alignment consistent.

Amen to that. Although I don’t use any Arca rails, I understand they are good for PRS shooters because they are easier to adjust on the fly?

Bottom mounted pic rails aren't good because it won't let your stock slide in a bag.

It's also harder to move it back an inch or two without removing it and re-installing it. With Arca, you just loosen it and slide it.

Arca was originally a photographic standard developed by the Arca Swiss company. They made view cameras and tripod heads. It was so useful, it has become an industry standard for quick release camera mounts. Our rifles conveniently interchange with the cameras.

And, as Paul Harvey would say, "Now you know the rest of the story."

Appreciate the insight!

Is an arca to pic adapter out of the question? https://www.amazon.com/s?k=arca+to+picatinny+adapter

 

[Eagle Six]

There are many adapters, sling stud to arca, m-lok to arca, etc. It's just another gizmo that is bulk, redundant, and extra pennies

Would you take that as " people have done it without issue, but we wont warranty it " ?
" Manner outside design content" would be somewhere other than the tripod provided ?
