You can pretty much find a thousand discussions about what optics, rifles, stocks, sights are issued and by which brand of service right down to the specific unit. But I have never been able to find out what offset RMR mount is being used by various units on their scoped rifles. Sure, when it is on top of an ACOG that's pretty simple. But I mean what mount is being used when it is mounted on the rail or receiver at a 45?
Why am I asking? 75% curiosity. 75% getting my clone on. Got a URGI and just wondering what the "proper" mount is. If it turns out to be something that sucks I'll just use what I've got. Might do that even if it is awesome. But curiosity has the best of me. |

Offset red dot mounts are not issued, at least on Army side, so if you see any, they’re personal purchases or bought with the unit’s GPC.

I had hoped the CREDO would be my next LPVO but just read they have clarity issues at full power. Which is where it would mostly sit. I get great dealer pricing on Trijicon stuff and EoTech stuff. So maybe the EoTech LPVO will be my next LPVO? I just wish it were "daylight bright". Sadly my suppliers all have crappy pricing on Vortex. And they don't really offer much else in terms of mid-high end optics brands. Nothing that jumped out at me anyway. I hate paying retail when I can save $300-400 on something like this. That's nothing to sneeze at. |

As you can see, the Sig sales team has a chummy relationship with the key decision makers. |

That said given the cost I am researching the heck out of this stuff before I buy it. As it turns out a lot of the high-end civilian stuff is crap too. Just because it costs a fortune does not mean it is worth a damn. Especially when it comes to optics. A fact I have discovered more than once. Finding something I'm gonna be happy with is going to be tough when it comes to an LPVO. Or at least it has to date. FFP is never daylight bright. SFP usually isn't either even though fans of a particular scope will say that it is when it isn't. When it is daylight bright the reticle is useless or it has some other flaw I can't get past. And in most cases, my suppliers don't carry it so I have to pay retail. Which is not my favorite thing to do...ever. Not if there actually is something as good or better that I could get wholesale...just did not know it would be better. Last edited by tacticalcity; 12-28-2022 at 3:17 PM.. |
