    Larue or GG&G quick release mount?

    I'm guessing they are pretty equal quality wise but how about functionality wise? GG&G has the Accucam with a nice looking adjustable throw lever. And Larue has an adjustable nut to get a tighter lock down with its lever. It will be for an Aimpoint MicroT2. Let me know which you prefer. Any pros and cons from either company. Thanks in advance.

    Never had experience with GG&G but I have with Larue and you cant go wrong with their mounts. Solid, reliable, holds zero and they send you dillo dust.
    The laws that forbid the carrying of arms are laws of such a nature. They disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes.... Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man." - Thomas Jefferson (quoting 18th century criminologist Cesare Beccaria)"

      I have 2 Larue's for a micro and ACOG, love them both. Never tried the Gg&g

          LaRue makes great mounts. I'd also consider Bobro over GGG.

            I think Larue is the absolute best when it comes to mounts. They're the benchmark that I compare everything else to.

              Thanks for all the replies. One thing I did like about the GG&G is how it attaches to the rail. It sqweezes to the rail on the receiver. And doesnt dig into the rail marring it as much after removing it and putting it back on. Has a good amount of adjustability too. Just some things I discovered after researching the GG&G. Decisions , decisions.

                This is why I recommend Bobro, which is also self adjusting in tension

                  Larue or GG&G quick release mount?

                  ADM is another competitor in this space, and Midwest Industries just jumped in as well (I just ordered one for a new AR build). Really, you can't go wrong with any of the ones named in this thread.

                    I looked on their site and they dont seem to have a mount for the Aimpoiint T2. Unless its the same mount for the T1? Not sure.

                      My fault for not reading more closely; thought we were talking about QD scope mounts. ADM might have something for Aimpoint micros, but I don't think MI does.

                        I cannot say for sure about the fitment between the T1 and T2, but I do know that they do make a mount for the T2. Might wanna try to contact Andrew at Bobro... they are great people over there.

                          I went back and checked: Midwest Industries does indeed have QD mounts for T1/T2 here.

                          ADM offers build-your-own QD mounts for T1 (no word about T2) using the B2 base from here and one of the T1 risers from here.

                            As suggested earlier, IMO Bobro is the best mount on the market.
