Just curious...but why would you use this mount on an MRP? |

Cuz its PURDY!!!  I know, there is no real benefit, as it is designed to mount over the delta ring, but I like how it looks and maybe alittle (very little) weight distribution. Other than that...no reason  I suppose you want me to hand deliver it to you at GAT Guns since I dont need it??? |

do you think that the extension ( not the base where the levers are but the part under the scope rings) will sit right on top of a rasII

Mount looks pretty friggin great! If it has been posted already and I over looked it, I apologize in advance. But I really didnt see it asked... The screw on the port side of the mount, I presume that is extra battery storage? Correct? Looking good!

That is correct. It is a water tight storage compartment for a spare Aimpoint battery. That would negate people from having to spend the $30 for the Aimpoint double battery module! C4 |

That would not be advisable anyway. IIRC, the LT Cantilever mount is made to go directly on a flattop allowing it to cowitness with the irons in the bottom 1/3rd of the sight picture. Placing that mount on the hump of a RAS-II would place it at an additional .5" above the reciever, and I do not think that you would be able to cowitness at that height. Of course I may be wrong about the LT mount's height.

I don't think he wants to mount it on the RAS II Bridge (thought this myself at first), but wants to mount the Cantilever mount BEHIND the bridge. I think it is better to just buy the LT RAS II mount (as it is cheaper and will put the Aimpoint in the same place).... C4 |

This looks like a great mount but how does it compare to the GG&G cantilever mount? Speaking as a noob it looks the same to me. I have been out of the AR game for a while but still have a GG&G mount from my last M4gery before I had to sell it. With some extra money I got for Christmas I will probably buy a replacement this weekend.

Here is a pic of the new Aimpoint 3X! It is a VERY impressive unit to say the least. It weighs in (with the LT mount attached) at 10 ounces. It has over 2" of eye relief. There are two buttons at the top that adjust the internal prism so that you can put the Aimpoint dot in the center of the magnifier.

Grant-
Is that a Std. LT mount? ie. would any ring/mt. combo that fits an M2/ML2 fit the magnifier? Any reason that "Magnifier" can't be used as a monocular when disconnected/dismounted from the receiver? Thanks Grant- oh and est. delivery/pricing? /S2 |

Any mount should work just fine. You will have to cut the rubber around the end to get a 30mm around it. I don't see why you couldn't use it as a monocular. I don't have pricing and availability should be after the shot show. You goin this year??? C4 |

Grant,
Please tell LaRue to build a da-da-damn 90degree LEFT flip mount for it. Two or three Ball-Bearing detent lock would be just fine. Dave S |

Thats gonna take some getting used to.
I dont think that system will take a drop as well as an acog.... but then, if the magnification breaks, big deal, you still got 1x red dot sights.... and then BUIS for backup. I guess all three failing would be pretty unlikely. |

Posted: 1/8/2005 12:45:47 PM EDT

Ya know... looking at that.... they should make the magnifier with a supple 1/4" extension at the front, and design the mounts so you can butt the back up the aimpoint right up against the magnifier... sealing the system. I think it would look neater too.... I understand this would bring your dot a little farther back... but with the magnifier I dont think it would matter much.
