The cover works with the ADM mount, and I imagine it works with all of the others as well.

2 PRO's here. One stock and one in an ADM qd mount. While I like the ADM mount better I can not say anything bad about the stock option outside of it's aesthetic. My stock mount keeps zero and has not loosened on me.

I'm using the Aero Precision cantilever mount on my PRO. Very lightweight and holds zero great so far. Not QD, but I don't remove my optic much anyway...

I used an american defense mount for a while. I had one on my PRO and had zeroes issues with it. I have since replaced it with a Larue because I wanted the battery storage.

Or it could be that you only hear about the problems because people don't go around on the internet posting about how great the mount is.

Just like anything else.

My stock mount also came loose and lost zero during a class in day two. Weak. Replaced it with bobro. Made the pro $115 less than a t-1. Not a great value in my opinion

Exactly. And aren't there some concessions in the sight's tube durability to lower the manufacturing cost too? Forget it.

I have a couple of Pros and an ML3. I've tried the stock Pro mount, LaRue, ADM and Bobro. All I own now are Bobro mounts; the LaRue and ADMs are fine, but I prefer the Bobro.

I was able to sell my stock Pro mounts for $30 or so, take that into account.

The PRO has been around for awhile now. Occasional mount issues aside, have there been complaints about the reliability of the PRO? I'm not aware of any.

When I had the PRO and supplied mount, I did notice that if you pushed on the knob when tightening it, I could get a bit more torque value. I wonder if that would have helped any of the guys who had it come loose.
