Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By MCM308:
Anyone using the LT139 mount? Pictures? I got the Nightforce 2.5-10x32 and not quite sure what mounting setup would be best. If the eye relief on the x32 is similar to the x24, I would go with the LT104. If it is longer, or similar to a Leupold, I would advise the LT139. I run one for my L 3.5-10x40 and it's perfect, with plenty of adjustment room. I "set it" for use with an A1 stock; then switching back to a SOPMOD is no problem, obviously. Best thing to do is find where you want to be behind the gun, and move the scope until it feels right. Do this in the prone, not off hand, of course. Then, notate that position, and see which mount will get you there. You'll notice on my LT139, I run it back toward the rear BUIS--I can always move it forward, but you may have limitations with the LT104 (or non "super extended" versions) My recommendation is go with the LT104. If it doesn't work, resale might be easier than the LT139, as well. See pics of mk12 with LT139 with Leupold 3.5-10x40, and Block II with NF 2.5-10x24 (Bobro mount same dimensions roughly as an LT104)

The guy I use for my transfers is ordering it direct from Allen Engineering and according to the guy i messaged on Allen Engineerings Facebook I can have him order either one. I think the knurling would be the best for grip. If I can sell my U.S Optics ER25 I am going to order one. |

I have tried 2 or 3 different local CLIII dealers to try to get them to contact AE so I can purchase through the local dealer vs. online purchase with transfer. Six in one hand and 1/2 dozen in the other, but that's how I would prefer to go about it... none have followed up. If I don't hear something by the end of the week, I will just purchase from Ron and have transfer done.

Heads up for early SPR and Mod 0 guys!
There is a Vari-X III 3.5-10 Illum Mil Dot M3 on Evilbay. Looks like it only has the 223 turrets, but you can probably find the .308 one. This is the correct optic for early SPR or the Retro uppers PRI released. Also there is a 3.5-10 M1 MilDot Illum in EE, it is newer so a turret swap to M3s should be easy. I am not in a position to move on the Evilbay scope sadly, as that is just what I would want for my someday early build. |

Up your butt and around the corner Is this about to be a poop thread? 
ON TOPIC Anyone with Gen I handguard early SPRs, would anyone be willing to provide the dimensions for the button head screws? I am tempted to see whether the set screws of the Gen II could be swapped to give them more of the Gen I look... |
