As 1168 said- it's far from a chinweld with a 1.93".

Pretty sure I’ve posted the same exact thing in at least two other threads here but I moved away from 1.93 because it took a little extra time for me to find the proper cheek weld from the prone when on the timer. That may not have been enough by itself but the Badger C1 had the modularity that I wanted and was lighter so pairing that with my preferred height for red dots made sense. The 1.7 is easily the best for me. 1.93 wasn’t bad but 1.54 was terrible. None of this has been in pro mask though and I agree that if a reasonable amount of time will be spent in one behind the gun, I wouldn’t even bother with an LPVO.

I like the idea of 1.7 for scope height. I don’t mind normal 1.50-1.54 heights but it would be nice to not have so much of your LA5 in your field of view. I understand the high mounts if all you do is passive aiming and you wear a mask a lot but I agree a lot of these POG’s turned insta operators tout high mounts but they don’t actually need them and these ass clowns also only shoot paper at under 10 yds. No sense in getting something for a purpose that you do 5% of the time or not even at all. I have limited time with the high mounts but your offset is now more pronounced and sometimes a murder hole or a gap in a barricade could be out of use with these high mounts. 1.93 isn’t crazy high but dudes with 2.04 mounts are definitely crazy. I also would be interested to see what these mounts turn your holds into at distance. Also for passive aiming ****ing put your nod over your non dominant eye and your red dot will merge with the night vision, the VCOG 1-8 works with pvs 31’s aiming passively and that’s a 1.54 height.
It seems like the people s*it talking 1.94 mounts have no experience with tall mounts. Ive probably been shooting 1.94 RDS's for 8+ years and Ive experienced none of these so called negative effects. 1.54 is all you need if shoot off the bench all day :rolleyes:Quote:
