I think any Aimpoint micro mount will work, I prefer Bobro for everything.

I didn't think that was the case because of the battery placement on the optic

I think that's only an issue with the M4S. I'm pretty sure that they made the M5S taller than the standard M5 to accommodate the low battery tube... On the bottom of the M5S it's like it already has the thickness of a spacer built right in so that it doesn't have the same issues with mounts requiring spacers like the M4S does.

Edit: Here's the best deal that I've seen on the M5S. > https://www.sportoptics.com/aimpoint-compm5s-200500.aspx

With SHOT show coming has anyone heard of what manufacturers are making new mounts for the m5s? Heard from a Aimpoint rep they are coming soon from 3 big manufacturers since the new Aimpoint m5b is built the same as the m5s in that they will be using the same mounts

Manufacturers like Spuhr are looking into M5S/B mounts...

I'm sure manufacturers are assessing the #s and seeing if it's economically viable for the number in the wild.

Was anyone at shot and saw any mounts for the Aimpoint m5b/5s?

I just got my 30mm mount from them, and it's so nice, I'm going to order another as soon as my next RDS arrives.

Aimpoint list the same accessory mount part numbers for the M5 and M5S being the same. Just email scalarworks to verify. They are good people.

Are you sure that at the time of that 7 month old conversation Scalarworks had even seen a 5S? Bobro list their mount as fitting T1,T2,Comp 5 and 5S.

The footprint are all the same across the Micro series, with the exception on the M5s/b as these will sit higher due to the low battery compartment.

A full co-witness mount for T1, T2, CompM5 becomes something along the line of a lower cowitness on the M5s/b. I haven't gotten my hands on a M5s but I should in a week or so hopefully.
