Congrats on the setup, I really like the FDE 👀 I'm guessing the red dot plate looks wonky due to the adjustments/zeroing?

I have a shitty Amazon red dot on my semi 12ga and its held up mostly fine. I gotta tighten it down every range trip but can't complain about the cost!

Imo if it can stay zero'd after your first trip I'd keep it as long as it's functioning. Just make sure you keep it securely fastened. All my cheap optics tend to work themselves loose

Thanks for sharing this, brother! It definitely got a bit wonky while zeroing. Do you know what ft/lb settings I should use to torque these screws?

Yes i fired 50 shots of slugs and it stood like a champ. Got loose a little bit but nothing so crazy.
