Wish me luck.....Dampa Mounts in U.S.A.
« on: April 22, 2009, 12:57:10 PM »
i got on the design board (something i haven't done in long time..ha!) and drew up some schematics of a "dampa" type scope mount.  the design is a little different than the euro type and i am in negotiations with a machine shop in south carolina right now for manufacturing these.  there are some tooling cost involved before the proto-types can be ran.  i plan to take the proto-types and mount them on magnum guns such as the rws-350, rws-460, rws-54, theoben eliminator, and walther falcon hunter with a cheap "non-rated" scope to see how long it takes to destroy the scope.  should this work the way i hope it will.......i will invest the money to go into full production on these scope mounts.  they won't be cheap ( $19.95 ?) but they will be less than the original "dampa" mounts, MADE IN THE U.S.A, and readily available for U.S. airgunners.  i am trying to limit production cost so i can keep the price as low as possible so WISH ME LUCK on this new adventure.  the first proto-type will be available in about 4 weeks.  i hope this is something that you all will be interested in.

Hope it all works out for you Roger. Those mounst at $19.95 ea is not a bad price at all. Will there be low, medium and high mounts? Wishing you the best buddy.

i meant i wouldn't be able to sell them for $19.95 like the leapers/accushot  mounts.  i figure the cost will be somewhere around the $60 range which is still cheaper than the $99 ones PA is selling and is compatible to beeman and bkl mount pricing.  sorry for the confusion.  it is going to cost more than $19.95 to make to make them...one thing is...you won't have to worry about your gun destroying your scope. :emoticon:
