Anybody have hands on with both? Looking to pair as a clip on only with an atacr 1-8. I'm having a hard time finding information on the jockey. Tia

@hoody2shoez

I went ahead and moved this before it gets nuked. You'll probably get a reply in here faster anyhow, if anyone owns both.

Am I understanding the product description of the Jockey correctly that you don't have to zero it to your day optic?  Just clip it on to whatever and go?

I was the one that did the review process Will posted earlier in the thread. The Jockey attaches to your picatinny rail, and it does needs to be zeroed to your day optic. Once zeroed, then the American Defense mount does return to zero very well if you wish to take it off and put it back on.

Got ya. Thank you for the explanation.  I knew that would be too good to be true .  This part of the product description from their website is a bit oddly worded if that is what they are trying to communicate.


"The Jockey 640 easily mounts in front of your existing 1-6x day scope with no additional zeroing required"

So to be clear, this is zeroed like other similar clip-ons using an on-screen calibration method?

No problem.  You can send me a free Jockey as a thank you .  


I got that quote straight from the description on the Armasight page, so It wasn't really an error on y'alls part.

Yes that is correct. The jockey also includes the ability use a digital reticle to match up to your day reticle. This is designed to allow you to use digital zoom (once you have calibrated the screen) on the thermal and still retain your POI. I didn't utilize this feature as the day scope's optical zoom typically is better than using digital. Where the digital zoom could come into play is when using it as a scanner.
