I have no experience with optics and I'm having issues with mounting them correctly. My experience has been that once mounted, the screws on mounts / optics work themselves out. Ex 1: I have a EOTech with the thumbscrew mount and it has fallen off the rifle twice now during firing. Ex 2: I have an Aimpoint mounted on an ARMS68. The screws that hold the ring tight on the Aimpoint loosend to the point that the scope slidesback and forth within the ring. My questions: 1.) Is there a mount that I can replace the thumbscrew mount on the EOTech (something like the ARMS throwlever mounts) or some way to keep the thing on the rifle? 2.) How do I keep the screws tight in the Aimpoint mount? Thanks in advance |
Follow the directions - finger tight then 1/4 more of a turn with a coin. I've never had a problem if you do that extra 1/4 turn. The other option is to buy the GG&G throw lever adapter or the LaRue Mount.
Loctite - read AND FOLLOW the directions and you won't have a problem. |
