Hey All,
I saw this scope bracket on another site.
Refering to the bracket connected to the carry handle.
I would like to know what it is called and does anyone know who sells it?

MI calls it an A2 cantilever mount. PRI calls it an M16 High Rider Carry Handle. Eotech makes one as well. I'm not sure which brand that one is though.

In generic terms is called a 'gooseneck'.

It's called a poor choice in mounting platforms.

:D

No really, GotM4 told ya right, a Gooseneck mount. Their are several companies that make them. I think most would recommend spending the money for the mount on swapping the upper out for a flat top.

That one looks like an Aimpoint model.

Its for all those people who adamantly refused to get a flat top upper insisting that all they are going to use are iron sights so A1/A2 uppers are perfect choice for them.
