I can get a Comp XD for $189. Is this a good deal, is it worth it? I don't know much about this model. Or should I spend the extra $$ and go for a M2 or ML2? I have a XM15 A2 shorty. I assume either of these will mount ontop easily. Please help |

I assume the sight you are talking about is a Comp M-XD or ML-XD. Those are the previous generation Aimpoint that won the US Army trial for the close combat optic. I have tow of them. They are excellent optics, especially at 190 dollars. it can be a good buy if the optic is in good condition. You will need a mount for it, Aimpint gooseneck mount and rail grabber will run you about 180-200 dollars. Hope this helps. |

i agree with chen, that's a good price. i was thinking of selling an M in almost new condition but definitely not that low (i'm too much of a cheapskate to lose that much on it, so i'd rather keep it :-P ) the aimpoint rail grabber is more around $80, but it's for flat tops, not A2 handles. if you're mounting it directly to your A2 handle, , not a flattop, all you need is a standard scope mount to fit your handle like the ARMS #2. the aimpoint comes with a scope ring that will attach it to the scope mount. cheers, MM |

two options for mounting the Aimpoint, ARMS makes a Aimpoint mouunt for the carrying handle, mounts right to the handle and can be released via the thumb screw. good choice and low price at 70 dollars from Fulton Armory [img]http://www.fulton-armory.com/COMP_II_M68-300_50.jpg[/img] Or you can go with a large selection of gooseneck mount available from Calvery Arms, Precision Reflex, ARMS and BC CAM. they range from 60-200 dollars depends on the company, features, and quality. I recommend the factory Aimpoint setup you can get from SWFA. it will run about 140 dollars. [url]http://www.swfa.com/riflescopes/aimpoint/index.html[/url] Hope this helps. |
