Does anyone know if this Larue Mount will mount a 50mm scope high enough?
And will the front sight block that is folded down, be in the way? Or should I go with a higher mount. It looks like it will work, just want to make sure before spending the money. Thanks. |

I have a NF 5.5-22x50 in this mount on my Grendel build and I love it. I used to run it on my other rifle with Troy BUIS and the folded front sight was a non-issue. Working clearance at the rear was a bit tight, though––the CH handle and rear irons in combination with flip-up covers suck up a lot of space.
Also, as an FYI, for those who like to save their brass I highly recommend the 3BUCC catcher. It does its job like it's supposed to. I went through 4 different catchers before I settled on this one. Anyway, I ended up using the polymer flat top mount/adapter. You usually mount it as far forward on the receiver top as possible. Unfortunately, the LT-104's cantilevered piece sits too low, so I had to shave about 2 mm off the top of the polymer mount and create a channel for the LT-104. Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile |
