Reptilia Saddle Mount for Beretta 1301/A300 - 1/3 Co-Witness
Running a red dot on your Beretta 1301 or A300 doesn't mean compromising on sight picture or practical speed. The Reptilia Saddle Mount for Beretta 1301/A300 brings compact optic mounting to these popular shotguns with a 1/3 co-witness setup, letting you keep the factory iron sights functional without clutter. Built from billet 7075-T6 aluminum and finished with mil-spec Type III hard coat anodize, this mount offers the durability you'd expect from serious shotgun work—whether that's hunting, sport shooting, or home defense.
The Saddle Mount accepts optics with the Aimpoint ACRO footprint, including Steiner MPS glass, and positions them as low as possible on the receiver. That low mounting profile keeps the optic out of your cheekweld and makes for cleaner gun handling. No special tools or additional hardware required—the mount uses the screws already supplied with your 1301 or A300, so installation is straightforward. Weighing just 23 grams, it adds virtually nothing to the gun's balance.
Made in the USA, this is the kind of no-nonsense accessory that works when you need it to. Whether you're running an Aimpoint ACRO or compatible Steiner MPS optic, the Saddle Mount gets your red dot on target fast and keeps it there.
