    Is there any direct mount for an RMR on a Mossberg 500/590?

    I'd really like an RMR mount for my Mossberg shotgun. Does such a thing exist? All I'm finding are rails, with the RMR mounted to that, making it sit kind of high up.
    Alternatively, are there direct mounts for other small red dots? I'd consider getting something different if so.
    My Mossberg does not have a rail, only a bead sight.
    Thanks

    Scalarworks make one for the Benelli that is pretty low. Low enough to co-witness with the ghost ring sight. I doubt the radius on your Mossberg is the same as the Benelli but that could be worked around. Here is a link https://scalarworks.com/shop/optic-mounts/sync-rmr/

    Thanks for that. I just called them and they said that they have versions for other shotguns in the works, possibly both with and without built in rear sights (I'd want the one without a built in rear sight, as I'm currently using a bead).
    So I'll just have to wait for it!

    Anything Scalarworks makes is worth waiting for!

    Aimtech makes a saddle type: http://www.brownells.com/optics-moun...urer_1=AIMTECH

    So does B-Square: https://www.midwayusa.com/product/74...12-gauge-matte

    Not sure how they compare to the rails, they may be a scoosh lower.

    Too bad Burris does not make their speed bead system for mossbergs due to the receiver mounted safety.

    Here is an article about the Burris FastFire Sight which has som pictures of the setup on a Mossy.

    If you want a red dot probably the FastFire or something similar is about as low profile as you are going to get.

    Those aren't direct mounts though, they are rails.
