Thompson Contender & Encore Optics Mounts Installation Instructions

Make sure all parts are included. Use the table below to take inventory. If the inventory does not include screws to attach your optic to the mount, please use the screws that came with your optic.

If you have the Aimpoint Micro mount, see the instructions specific for that mount here: Aimpoint Micro

Make sure your rifle is unloaded and safe before continuing.

Install your optic onto the mount. Use the table below for torque values, make sure not to exceed those values! Then make sure the screws do not protrude below the bottom of the mount, as shown in the picture below.

Install your optic and mount onto your rifle. Do not exceed 8 in-lbs!

Perform a function check and make sure the rifle is safe to fire.
