JP Enterprises AR optic mount?

[F.C.III]

Anyone have any experience with JP Enterprises optic mount. It looks pretty solid with its 5 mounting screws. How does it compare with saw the Larue SPR 1.5 mount? thanks

I have both and they work fine.

It really depends on whether you need a quick release or not. However, LaRue is now offering the VZV attachment for some of their scope mounts, which are not quick release.

I have a Leupy 4.5-14X50 in my JP Mount and I mount it on my various rifles when I want to conduct accuracy testing with various loads and then it comes off.

I have a Meopta K Dot in my LaRue mount on my 3 gun AR and it really never comes off.

The LaRue VZV and the JP mounts are almost the exact same price, but for only about $25 more you can get the LaRue quick release, which I really like and it holds zero well enough for 3 Gun competition for me.

Both are great companies and great products and you can't go wrong with either.

Thanks for the info. I have done some price comparisons and I found the JP mount to be app. $70.00 cheaper. As for the quick release I like to keep my optics in place after initial zero. My main concern is the quality of the mount since I have not personally had hands on this mount.

it's a very clean mount
I have had a few, it's my favorite non QR mount by far
it's very stout, stiff and light

any one got pics of it mounted on a weapon?

Not trying to bust the thread but...

The Nightforce Unimount would be another option.

What handguard did you use on that one?

[ccoker]

it was a DPMS carbon tube
I drilled holes in it and sprayed with textured bed liner
was ultra slick...
