    Not sure where to put this,
    Does this scope fit onto a 20mm rail?
    http://www.tacticalgeardepot.com/product_info.php?cPath=34_25&products_id=187

    It says it includes a 11mm rail so probably is a standard 20mm rail but I'm an idiot and after what happened last time I don't want to take a chance:(
    yeah I probably answered my own question and made a full of myself.
    Help much a appreciated.

    If you notice in the pic it comes with two rail mounts. Here's another one they do - http://www.tacticalgeardepot.com/product_info.php?cPath=34_25&products_id=301 Notice the different size of the two rail bases - one 20mm and one 11mm. Now what the 11mm one goes on is another question!

    11mm sounds like real steel.

    11 is an air rifle,

    yeah there is two rails with it.

    11mm or Dovetail is the rail for mounting onto a rifle, air gun or cross bow.
    20mm or Weaver is the millitary (but not exclusively so) mount for millitary rifles , pistols and airsoft, and some paint ball markers i think.

    that sight will do the job for you anyways.

    There's no such thing as stupid questions, only stupid answers. Otherwise we'd never learn.
