OuterImpact makes your optics work for you! Episode 58 For The Love Of Guns

OuterImpact: Making Your Optics Work for You (So You Don’t Have To)

Let’s face it—optics mounting can be a nightmare. You finally pick the perfect red dot, only to realize your firearm manufacturer is holding you hostage with some weird proprietary mounting system. (Looking at you, SIG Sauer…)

But fear not! OuterImpact is here to save the day (and your sanity) with their modular red dot adapters (MRAs), adjustable co-witness mounts, and precision Picatinny rails.

In this episode of For the Love of Guns, Jason sits down with Roy Chester, co-owner of OuterImpact, to talk about their awesome (and affordable) firearm mounting solutions.

OuterImpact: Who Are These Mad Scientists?

OuterImpact is a family-run business that makes red dot mounting easy, even for those of us who struggle to assemble IKEA furniture without missing a screw (which, let’s be honest, is most of us).

Roy started the company with one goal:
✔ Make high-quality, reasonably priced mounting solutions
✔ Allow people to actually use the optics they want (instead of whatever came in the box)
✔ Keep everything durable enough to survive the Apocalypse (or at least a range day with your crazy uncle)

Modular Red Dot Adapters (MRAs) – Because One Size Does NOT Fit All

If you’ve ever tried to mount a red dot on a SIG, Glock, or CZ, you’ve probably screamed in frustration. (Or thrown a wrench across the room. No judgment.)

SIG, in particular, loves to lock you into their optics ecosystem, like a controlling ex who won’t let you date other brands. But OuterImpact’s MRA system sets you free by letting you mount all kinds of optics onto slides that normally wouldn’t accept them.

Why You Need an OuterImpact MRA

🔹 Compatible with a ton of optics – No more “Will this fit?!” anxiety
🔹 Wallet-friendly – High quality, but won’t cost as much as the gun itself
🔹 Tough as nails – Tested on Glock 10mm hand cannons (because science)
🔹 Easy to install – Unless you ignore instructions and use the wrong screws (then it’s on you, buddy)

💡 Pro Tip: If the screw doesn’t fit, don’t force it! (This is how you strip threads, ruin plates, and make Roy cry.)

The Adjustable Co-Witness Mount – The ‘Goldilocks’ of Optic Heights

Ever buy a co-witness mount and realize it’s either too tall or too short? OuterImpact solved this Goldilocks problem by creating a height-adjustable mount that lets you fine-tune your optic position.

✔ Adjust up and down without losing zero (yes, really!)
✔ Works with iron sights for perfect co-witnessing
✔ One mount to rule them all – No need to buy different heights

💥 Tested on a Mossberg 590M with 1.25-ounce slugs.
That’s right—they torture-tested this thing on a 12-gauge shotgun because, apparently, they enjoy pain. (Spoiler: It held up just fine. The testers’ shoulders, however, did not.)

Red Dots & The Science of ‘Why Is This Still Zeroed?!’

A weird (but awesome) thing happens when you move a red dot up and down: it stays zeroed. Unlike traditional rifle scopes, where adjustments change everything, red dots simply keep on doing their thing.

This means:
✔ You can move your optic up or down and still be on target.
✔ No need to re-zero every time you tweak your setup.
✔ You’ll spend less time adjusting and more time actually shooting.

(Or, if you’re like me, spending more time “dialing in” at the range just to avoid going back to work…)

OuterImpact’s Picatinny Rails – Built Like a Tank (But Prettier)

Some people like fancy Gucci Glocks. Others just want a rock-solid Picatinny rail that won’t wiggle, bend, or make your optic look crooked.

🔹 Zero and 20 MOA options – Because sometimes, you need extra reach
🔹 Precision-machined – Held to tolerances tighter than my budget (+/- 0.0005 inches)
🔹 Anodized for durability – So they look good AND last forever

Long-range shooters? You’ll love the 20 MOA rails, which give your scope extra elevation for those “bet you can’t hit that” shots at insane distances.

OuterImpact’s Pyramid Sights – Because Geometry is Cool Now

Traditional iron sights? Meh. OuterImpact’s pyramid sights align automatically because your brain naturally wants to match geometric shapes. (Science! 🧠🔺)

✔ Perfect for new shooters – No more “Wait, which one do I line up?” confusion
✔ Great for aging eyes – Bigger, easier to see
✔ Customizable colors – Because some people like blacked-out sights, and others want them as bright as a Vegas casino

🔹 Firefly Glow Kit Option – Glow-in-the-dark inserts that charge under UV light and last up to 12 hours. (Now your sights are tactical AND futuristic!)

Why OuterImpact is Awesome (and Why You Should Check Them Out)

✔ Small business, big innovation – Family-run and built by actual shooters
✔ Affordable & high-quality – Tactical gear that won’t break the bank
✔ Compatible with tons of optics – SIG, Glock, CZ, you name it
✔ Battle-tested durability – If it survives a 12-gauge slug test, it’ll survive your range day

Final Thoughts

OuterImpact has revolutionized the optics game, giving shooters affordable, adaptable, and ridiculously durable mounting solutions. Whether you need an MRA for your pistol, an adjustable co-witness mount, or a Picatinny rail that won’t flex, they’ve got you covered.
