Optics & Mounting Services in Wake Forest, NC
Optics Mounted Right.
Accuracy starts with clarity, and clarity starts at the mount. At City Armory in Wake Forest, North Carolina, whether it’s a red dot on your carry pistol or a scope on your bolt gun, we install it with precision: leveled, torqued to spec, and boresighted so it’s ready from the first shot.
The goal is simple: no guesswork, no loose hardware, and no mystery zeros. Just optics that stay put and track like they should for duty, defense, hunting, or competition.
Prices below cover mounting, leveling, torque, and boresighting where noted. Live-fire zeroing and ammo are not included. Complex setups, unusual mounts, or problem hardware may require additional shop time.
