Page 2 - AirForce Self-Centering Tri-Rail, 11mm Dovetail Reviews

Installation was a snap!Fits perfect and there isn't a mount on the market that looks better than the Airforce Tri-Rail on an Airforce Rifle,Period!

Nothing!

Shoot Safe! Happy Shooting!

Works great fits perfect.Did exactly what i needed it to do.

Perfect for raising your scope.

This is the first riser type mount I have found that actually holds securely onto an airforce 3/8 rail. I've tried the BKL mounts, and assorted ring's but a slight bump or jar and I was re-sighting the rifle. This mount holds strong.

Fits the talon rail perfectly, but shorter than a condor rail. Maybe offer 2 lengths?

fits well, holds great, very strong and good material. Holds alot of clamping force. Long enough to space the rings out well and that is a plus, decreasing the leverage the scope has on the mounts when adjusting the AO/Zoom etc. Will be my go-to riser as long as the rifle I'm using can fit it.

This rail is just what i needed to be able to get a better line of sight without hurting my neck. By raiseing the scope i was able to look at an even line of sight which is just what "I" needed. You may not need this ajustment but for me i am glad that they had an alternative devise. Ronnie

You need to be comfortable when fireing your weapon .

They fit my Talon SS perfectly. I needed a riser since I was using a 20 oz C02 tank, otherwise, I could not see through the scope. The cut off slant matches the angle on the rifle.

I just needed the riser, not the side rails. The price was a little high.

Well made, very solid, I'm sure it works great on Airforce products.

Make it about 3" longer.

The rail probably won't provide the length needed to convert your gun to a bull pup unless you set your shoulder pad further back from the receiver. I could on my Marauder if I mount both scope mounts behind the elevation knob. I wouldn't have any issues with the stability.

Well made

Cost

Good product, matches the design and lines of the Airforce guns.

At first I was a bit skeptical about putting the scope much higher than it was since I like my scope close to the barrel, but I was having trouble getting a proper sight picture with my scope. I put the tri-rail on my condor and all of a sudden I had a muskrat killing machine in my hands with amazing accuracy. Plus the bonus is I have a place beside the scope for my new centerpoint action cam with the extra side rails. An excellent accessory for tricking out your condor.

nothing. Fits tight and looks great.

A fine accessory. Very well thought out bit of gear that exceeded my expectations.

Fácil de instalar. Liviano. Hace que el condor luzca mejor.

El precio es alto.

Dependiendo del diámetro de la mira así deben escogerse los anillos, de perfil alto o bajo. Para miras de 50 mm los anillos altos son adecuados.

Easy to install. Makes using a scope possible with the Condor.

If you order a condor and a scope you'll need the medium rings and this rail. Otherwise the scope is way too low with just the rings and will be difficult to shoot. I wish I had known this when ordering the condor. Oh well, know you got the knoledge. Bob

Perfect fit for Air force air rifles. Before installing this, I tried a 1" high ring scope mount and I did not have a comfortable viewing position. Once the tri rail was installed with the 1" high ring mount, the viewing set up was perfect.

Helps the scope sit a little higher. More room for those extra things that I wanted to add. Easy to install and will not move with the six screws holding it in place. Looks Great!

Purchased 2 for my Talon SS. So I could mount my weaver and picaninny stuff. But could not mount any of them. The recoil prevention pins on weaver picaninny mountings. PREVENT mounting on the Tri rail base! A brilliant attempt of Airforce to force you into buying their low quality mounted accessories. If you modify the mount in any way...your BONED if you decide to return the mount. The rifles are all top notch! But like the IMI's Desert Eagle...your kinda stuck buying their stuff.

Machine some recoil prevention slots on the mount. Machine a lip on the top of the mount. So you can mount things on the side of this rail.

Think twice before buying. If your weaver picaninny mounting rings have removable recoil prevention pins....your in the clear!

I liked how many screws are on the rail to give it a very secure foundation to my rifle

Needs to have some barrel compensation built into it. Because you are going to most likely need it. I did on both my Talon SS and my Condor. I would also make the rail shorter in length and make it see though with an integrated rear sight.

You don’t really need this if you are not going to mount accessories to the sides of the rail. You can achieve the raised sight line with some High rings and also have see though.

This tri-rail base gives you lots of mounting options and flexibility for your scope, laser, light, etc. I actually bought 2 of them. I have one mounted in the normal position of the "top" rail on my Condor, and I also mounted one on the "forward" rail. The reason? I wanted all the extra mounting configuration options, but I also use the side rails on both the tri-rail I mounted in the "forward" location, and the "top" rail location, for mounting a "large" swivel from the Airforce Swivel Stud set, one on each rail. NOTE: In order to do this, you have to buy (2) Airforce Swivel Stud sets because each set may come with 2 of the small swivels for mounting on the butt of the rifle / HPA tank, but you only get 1 large swivel for mounting on a dovetail. I mounted a large swivel on the side of each tri-rail base, so I could then attach a VTAC quick-disconnect extension to each swivel. From the quick-disconnnections, I can quickly add / remove my nicely-padded VTAC 2-point tactical sling from Viking Tactics. One may ask me why I would want to mount an additional large swivel on the side of the "top" tri-rail base (near my scope), when I could just attach it to the small swivel at the butt of the rifle. The reason I chose to do it this way was so I could keep the sling on and the rifle in a secure and very convenient location for switch out HPA tanks. Otherwise, if I just used the small swivel at the butt of the rifle for the rear attachment of the sling, I would have to remove my sling and set the rifle down when refilling or switching out HPA tanks.

I don't think I would change anything on the tri-rail base, but it would be nice if they were a tad bit cheaper. In order to achieve the setup I was after, I had to buy (2) tri-rail bases, which cost me about $66.

Feels solidly built and is the perfect length although offering other lengths would be a nice option.

The hex screws which attach the rail to the gun are frozen in place and very difficult to turn. When attempting to loosen the hex screws in order to install the rail 2 out of 10 screws could not be loosened despite applying penetrating oil and actually broke in in place.

machining and design. very rugged and secure

i think i might offer this product in different lengths and different heigths...possibly different colors.

a great product for those owning the Airforce series PCP rifles

Very sturdy construction, looks cool and definitely will not move once mounted, nice feature being able to mount other accessories to the side rails.

Nothing

Edges of the base front and rear are sharp but not a big deal, the people at AirForce told me that having the rail base and high scope rings is good and recommended for people over 6 feet in height to have good neck and head position.

Looks cool, raises the mount level and you can use "medium" height scope rings. All the allen screws really hold this thing tight.

You can just use "high" scope rings and eliminate the extra cost and weight. It seems pretty heavy for an all aluminum rail. It does provide more attach points for accessories, but at some point the extra "goodies" become a burden.

Sturdy construction, good finish, good looks.

Nothing

Sets the scope up a little higher for a better head and neck position.
