I have a set of trijicon 30mm steel rings. Can I mount a high quality 30mm scope on my scar and expect it to survive with just rings or does it have to be mounted in a mount?
Will I be able to achieve proper cheek weld?

If the rings are just on the rear end of the receiver where it is the stiffest - you might be ok.
I was told by Trijicon a few years ago the issues happen when you go too far forward where there is flexing of the upper receiver.

I run solid mounts on my SCARS. Right side QD to clear the charging handle.
