Best Flip Mount for Aimpoint 6x?

[indianajonze]

doesn't seem to be very many compelling options out there for this. thinking of adding it to my setup (aimpoint t2 with scalarworks mount), but scalarworks doesn't seem to make a matching mag mount, and nothing else i've seen impresses me

Aimpoint's own flip/twist mount is not a bad option. You can flip the magnifier to the side or depress a lever and twist it 90 degrees, and the magnifier and top half will detach from the base. I have an extra base so I can easily move the magnifier between two rifles.

This is it with a 3X-C:

Aimpoints flip and twist off mount is the best available right now.

is the aimpoint mount a flip AND twist off, or are there separate mounts? i see an aimpoint flipmount on their site, and i see a twistmount. i don't see one that does both

Those aren't very durable. I had an AR fall from its buttstock leaning up against a chair to the ground and it warped the twist mechanism. Not for serious duty whatsoever.

Scalarworks was working on one. I dont know where they are on that project.

I dont know about the flip and twist but I have the a plain Aimpoint twit mount and it has been extremely durable. I have had it for 4 or 5 years. Mount can also be used to mount a PVS14 so you can swap between the magnifier and nods.
