You convinced me to grab the SYNC over the Aridus CROM, nice set up.

@@ArmyGreensTanBoots scalarworks makes some of the best mounts. Aridus makes some good stuff too but that rear iron sight at the back of the crom isn’t needed because you still get to keep your rear iron when installing the sync mount. Definitely won’t be disappointed with it. Thank you.

Just the setup I was looking for, thanks 👌

@@454ssstig no problem. If you can get your hands on an rmr hd to throw on there that’s what I would’ve preferred. They’re just harder to get.

Great video! Still conflicted between CROM/Micro setup or this with the Scalar and ACRO. If money wasn’t a variable, would you still choose this over the Micro? I have no experience with an ACRO.

@@joepbugnaiii296 thank you. Can’t go wrong with either setup, they’re very similar but I think the t2 performs slightly better as a red dot. I personally like the t2 better but went with the p2 because it’s 300$ cheaper. I like how with the p2, I can still keep my stock rear iron sight. I’ve seen some complaints about fog inside the acros glass. I’ve not had this happen to me. For the beretta 1301 specifically, I think I’d go with the acro p2 and scalarworks mount, because of being able to keep my rear iron sight and because I like scalarworks mounts more. On my benelli m4, I went with the t2 and scalarworks mount because that setup allows me to keep the stock iron sight, beretta does not. Not a huge deal just personal preference. Acro is similar to t2, turrets are slightly different and there’s buttons instead of a turn dial for the brightness. P2 can be harvested off to a pistol,shotgun or CAN be used on a rifle. T2 can be harvested off and put on another shotgun or rifle. Just some things to consider. If you need money for other things like training or gear, I’d just get the cheaper option and use the 300$ for something else. But if you don’t like the p2, and want to stick with a t2, that’s fine as well. Really just comes down to preference, you won’t be making a mistake choosing one over the other. They both just have some slight pros and cons went choosing which to mount specifically on the beretta. Hope this helps. Let me know if you have anymore questions.

@@GearAndGuns Thank you so much for taking the time on this. Very very helpful. I agree though, everything scalar makes I love. Even the screws they use are well made with reusable thread locker.

@@joepbugnaiii296 no problem. Happy to help. Like I said specifically for this build, I prefer the acro p2 and scalarworks mount, but you can do whatever you feel more comfortable with or prefer more. Scalarworks does make great stuff.

Nice. I can definitely see the benefit to a system like this. Wanted to ask your thoughts on adding the kickoff system to this?

Optics are an improvement to any weapon you put them on, in regarding a shotgun I think they are the least beneficial because of spread of buckshot, how big a slug is, and how little distance your actually shooting. It’s still makes things easier, but by no means is it necessary on a shotgun. Iron sights are plenty sufficient especially for home defense or close quarters. But if money is no issue, I think it provides a good benefit. Just not as much as say a rifle or pistol. I talked about the kickoff system in the video where I did a whole review on this gun when I first bought it. Unfortunately the kickoff system only works with the standard stock. It will not work with the pistol grip. If I had the standard stock I would definitely try it out. It’s supposed to give a 40% felt recoil reduction. This thing has some decent kick so I think it’s worth it to try out the kick off if possible. Unfortunately I don’t have the standard stock version to test it and make a video on it. It sounds awesome, I would recommend it if you have the standard stock version. When I looked into it, there wasn’t a ton of information or testing on it. Just some forums and conversations. Aridus shot card coming next, then sling, then light.

@@GearAndGuns As of now, on the beretta website it says the part is incompatible with A300 and 1301 models but everyone is saying that it’s compatible with the mod 2. It’s out of stock currently but I think I’m going to pick one up. Because the gun is so lightweight it does have some decent felt recoil even for a gas operated semi auto. If I get my hands on one, I’ll try to do an install video because there doesn’t seem to be one out there as of yet.

@@stevenrodriguez9655 it definitely works with the 1301 mod 2 standard stock model. I called beretta and they told me that it is compatible with the mod 2 standard stock but not the pistol grip. I saw on some forums or posts that it’s also compatible on the mod 1 standard stock as well. I think they have the same stock with no changes so I don’t see why that wouldn’t work but would need to confirm with beretta. They must’ve not updated their website. It was in stock so I’m sure a bunch of people bought it when this came out. Optics planet sells them as well if you want to buy one from them, just make sure they actually have it in stock or the lead time could be ridiculous. Yeah definitely give it a shot, install video would be sweet. I think you just pop off the end plate of the stock and stick it in but not sure.

How many rounds did it last? Like has it ever fell off?

@@christianespitia1144 I haven’t been able to test it much, I’ve been very busy. But no, if mounted properly it will not fall off or break. Scalarworks and aimpoint make very durable and reliable products, I have high confidence in them.
