It all depends if the mount on the dot is a dovetail (11mm) or a weaver mount. Most red dots have weavers and are 30mm diameters, so no, it won't fit unless you can get adapters, or switch the mounts.

How do you put a laser dot scope on an airsoft gun?

Follow the instructions provided with the scope/mount. You need to make sure you have a scope with rings that will fit on a "Dovetail" scope base rail. They have 3 main bases; dovetail- mostly for air and pellet guns...some 22's also, Weaver style, and Piccatini rail systems.

No, the BT omega does not have any rails to mount any sights on. A custom rail would need to be fitted and drilled into the handle to support any sights.

Do gun attachments fit paintball?

If your gun attachments are for a rail, and your paintball gun has the same size rail, then yes. Instances of this are red dot sights, flashlights, under-mounts, and lasers. Suppressors, barrels, and proprietary parts usually will not fit without modification.


What type of reflector device is a red dot sight?

Red dot sights are unique in part to their reflection configuration. Unlike many other sights, red dot sights are non-magnifying reflectors which, as the name implies, means the sight provides no magnification.

What is the difference between a red dot sight and a laser sight?

The difference is that red-dot sights have contained aiming reticles, whereas laser sights use an emitted laser beam that must fall onto a target. Red-dot sights are used mainly for more accurate ADS (aiming down sight) firing and laser sights allow for less-accurate, but made more so, shoulder-firing.

EMPs affect red dot sights and all enemy kill streaks. Even though red dot sight is affected, the holographic sight can still be used.


What is the difference between the red-dot sight and the holographic sight?

The difference is that red-dot sights are cheaper to make, less accurate, and not as durable as holographic sights are. Both use an LED (light-emitting diode) to create a reticle (target dot) imposed onto a clear surface, but holographic sights are usually more accurate at long distances and do not "change" position in the glass when looked through at a different angle, which the reticles of red-dot sights often do. The key to this difference is that red-dot sights refract the laser emitted by the LED only once, allowing room for error, whereas holographic sights refract the one beam from the LED multiple times from multiple angles so that each laser refraction will reach the same place every time and will appear to remain consistent in its position to the shooter's eye.
