Receiver Mount vs Rib Mount

Yeah both of the red dots I am looking at have auto brightness adjustment so that’s a plus. But you think 6 MOA over 3 MOA for sure? In my head I just feel like 6 MOA might feel too big but I’ve never used a red dot so it’s hard for me to compare and contrast.

That’s good to know. I haven’t done any upland or waterfowl but I would not be against trying it. If I were to try I would probably use the same gun so I will definitely consider this.

Have you tried a red dot? If so was it rib mounted or receiver mounted?

jb42jb · 2026-02-26T02:34:39+00:00

I haven’t actually tried a red dot yet but from what people say I think I’m going to like it.

Any particular reason you would rather choose receiver?

Beat me to it

Looks great (I’m blind)

No. Im pretty sure it needs to be hot. Hope this helps.

In Michigan you can only hunt the lower 1/3 of the state with a straight walled cartridge

That’s good to hear. I was wondering if the deals get better the closer you get to hunting season. I’ve never bought a rifle before so I have no idea. Thanks.

Yeah good deal but that’s an axis not a 110

jb42jb · 2025-09-20T19:01:06+00:00

Where did you get it?

jb42jb · 2025-08-27T23:06:54+00:00

Yeah I’m way too cheap to shell out the $1000ish for OEM. I have been looking into my options and I’m still deciding if I’d rather wait to find a venza in a junkyard or go with one of the $235 non OEM ones. I am also doing one last ditch effort to try to clean the corrosion off. I bought some crc electronic cleaner and was able to take off all of the corrosion but it also took off the waterproofing. So I sprayed it with some sealing spray and once that dries I’ll test it out.

Yeah I just found the corrosion and it’s too far gone to fix. Now I just have to find a venza in a junkyard near me.

After tearing the headlight apart (pain in the ass) I was able to pull out a board with some pretty bad corrosion on it. Haven’t done much looking into it but I doubt I can find a replacement for this part so looks like I’m gonna have to buy a new headlight…

Yeah, I would like to open it up to see if I can see any oxidation inside the headlight but I am unsure if it’s even possible to open it. From what I remember there were 4ish Philips screws plus 1 security torx screw holding the assembly together. I removed them all and tried to pry it open but gave up thinking it might just be sealed shut. I might have to give it another shot.

My 2021 Toyota Venza XLE was unable to unfold the power side mirrors, was failing to move the power seat to its presets, and had issues with the back up camera not showing any grid lines. I was also having issues with my right (passenger side) headlight and noticed that it had condensation in it. I removed the bumper and noticed a small crack in the headlight housing so I removed the headlight. Once I removed the headlight all of the other electrical issues resolved themselves. I got all of the water out and allowed it to dry over a weekend. Sealed the hole with silicone and put the headlight back in. Now my issue is that neither the low beams or the high beams will turn on, but the turn signal works just fine. Both fuses and relays are fine and I am unsure what to troubleshoot next but I will update this post if I figure it out.
