Competition Mount Questions/Answers
Question: Why does the ejection port need to be lowered on the C-More and Aimpoint models?
Answer: The Glock's ejection port is designed to eject the brass up and to the right of the ejection port. When you place any object over the ejection port, restricting the "flight" of the ejected brass, the brass may deflect off of the obstruction and fall back into the ejection, causing a jam when the slide closes.
We recommend lowering the ejection port by .100", maintaining the same curvature of the front and rear angles of the ejection port. In addition, the inside angle should be retained, too. We can provide instructions on how to lower your ejection port but we recommend this to be done by a machinist or gunsmith.
Question: Will the CARVER Competition model fit on any Glock model?
Answer: The CARVER Competition mounting system was designed to fit on Glock models 17, 22, 34, 35 and 31 and any other variations like the 17L or 24. The Competition model will not fit G19 or G23 Glock models. Though the Competition model will fit the G21/G20 models, including the SF models, we do not recommend their use on these large frames because of the tolerances on the side of the larger frame.
Question: Will the Competition model mounting system fit on any Glock Generation?
Answer: No. The Competition model will only fit Generation 3 or 4 model Glocks.
Question: Can I move my C-More base to the rear of my mount?
Answer: Yes. Our C-More bases are drilled with extra holes to allow the base to be moved to the rear. Moving the base to the rear is easy. Just remove the SHC screws, move the C-More base to the rear, realign the holes and then replace the SHC screws. Don't over tighten the SHC screws, they will break. Tighten the screws snug with loctite added to secure them.
Question: How tight should I tighten the trigger pin?
Answer: Tighten the trigger pin until snug, then apply loctite to the trigger pin threads. CAUTION: Do not overtighten the trigger pin because it will squeeze the the frame's sides and could prevent your barrel from unlocking and locking up correctly.
Question: Are parts interchangeable on the Competition mount?
Answer: Yes. All parts for all CARVER mounts are interchangeable. If you want to convert your Weaver mount to a C-More, simply order only the C-More base and replace the Weaver base. Competition mounts can be converted to a Hunter model by replacing only the left and right side plates.
