Does anyone have the offset T-1 mounted with an ACOG? If so how do you feel about it and could you post some pictures? Debating on buying one.

Thanks in advance,

It was initially designed for use with the ACOG.

I greatly prefer the offset red dot to the stacked style.  Less distance off the bore, and a slight pivot of the rifle vs lifting your head completely off the weld.

I agree. I think I like the ergonomics of the setup a lot more I'm general. And thanks for the pics!

It's also not dependent on having a primary optic that you can actually mount it on top of.

Hey Mark - how about for us lefty people? ?  Will the T1 work with that mount on the other side??

Thanks!!

Just turn the mount around.  You can mount the optic facing either way.

I don't disagree, but LT has this pretty well covered.

Ring mount.
ACOG stack.
Ring half.

The offset mount is dependent on a primary optic that allows visibility to the Aimpoint.  EG wind age knob not in the way.

Kind of a wash, in my opinion.

Is sighting in an offset mount like that a tedious project?

I would think a slight variation in setting up for bore sighting would be easy, and for a close in zero - shouldn't be too tough to get it there.

It's no big deal.  Just hold it on a bag like you would hold it in use.  Not at all difficult.

I dont think it will work Lefty due to the activator on the H1/T1

A more forward mounting would solve that if you have the rail space.
