Hello, I have a feeling this is a no go but, is it okay to mount a scope with one ring on the flattop and one ring on a freefloat handguard? Thank you Take care |

No, bridging the gap is bad. ETA - Get a cantilever mount that puts your scope out further. I use this one. |
I concur 100%! LaRue mounts rule! Pull it off, put it back on, it holds it's zero.

Generally speaking, bridging the handguard and receiver with a magnified precision-optic is a bad thing. With the aid of high-speed photography, you can see the amount of flex (there's a lot more than you'd think). Even with rails that cosmetically butt up against the receiver. The LT-104, LT-139 and LT-135 have gained global popularity as a solution to this effect. |
