Best non claw mounting arrangement for HK91?

[The Dumb Gun Collector]

Hey guys

I am probably picking up an SAR-8 this weekend (HK91 clone). I want to mount an Aimpoint M4 on it. Any good mounting solutions?

this (depending on what mount you're using with the comp M4 due to limited space):

edited to add - this is the first mount with a T-1 on my HK 93 - i can co-witness the irons through the T-1.

Is that an Aimpoint branded mount? How well does it hold zero?.

[militarymoron]

the top one is marked aimpoint, but i think it was made by B&T. the bottom one, i don't have so i don't know.
they're not quick-release, so they're not meant to be taken on and off. if you remove the mount, you'd have to re-zero.

What I meant to ask was does it maintain zero during use. It isn't some piece of junk where I have to re-zero it every time I take it out of the bag?

[militarymoron]

it isn't junk. it's the mount at the top of this page:

FJB could probably speak to this as well - send him a PM.

i think you need the 2nd one though - not enough rail space on the first one for a comp M4 - i just checked.

This B&T is also an option:

Just shot you a PM, Greg.... :cool:

For a G3 I'd rather put a Trijicon TA33 and their G3 mount on it. Minimal weight, 3x magnification when you need it, no magnification with both eyes open.
