why get a cantilever mount versus a regular mount? larue looks like they have a pretty good deal if you buy the aimpoint through them too. thinking about gettin a m3.

The cantilever mount gets the sight further out and gives you more usable rail space behind the sight.

It just moves the optic forward more, allowing room behind it. If you are going to buy a LaRue mount, its a great deal to buy them together. I wouldnt buy anything but LaRue. There is no reason to buy something cheap and then buy the LaRue later. Just get the right setup the first time and enjoy.

I use the LT-150 straight mount. I fit an Aimpoint ML2, Aimpoint 3x Magnifier on Larue flip mount and a Troy BUIS all on the flat top.
