    Leupold AR Mod 1 Firedot SPR.. mounting opinions

    I just picked one of these up.. it is 1.5X4X20MM calibrated for a 55 grain bullet.... This is primarily for a range gun and maybe... hunting

    I would like to get a 1 piece for it (1 inch tube diameter) with either quick connect or bolted mounting option.

    Opinions are appreciated

    Thanks!

    The new LaRue SPR mount is QD and you can get 1" rings for it. It locks up tight and there is not a mount that can come close to it for RTZ and cost.

    I would buy that LaRue C.A.N mount in a heartbeat, you can't beat LaRue quality and with CAN, LAT and MBT they are undercutting other top makers by $100 bucks or more.

    I had one of these scopes with an Aero light wight mount, it worked. i wouldn't trust the Aero for something heavier but it seem to fit the little Leupold.

    Was going to suggest an Aero SPR (I have a VXR 1.25-4X in one and it is great), but if there is even a remote chance you will install back up sights I would go with docsherm's suggestion.

    If the the AR Mod 1 has turrets like the VXR Patrol, be careful to not let anything brush against them. Way too grabby and easy to move if they are the same. That can be reduced by using some clear shrink wrap over the 15 LPI checkering.

    I had a Patrol SPR and put it in an Aero Precision mount. The combo weighed under 1 pound. Don't let anyone poo poo the lightweight mount.. It's not like you are putting a bomb proof scope into it..

    I have my Leupold Mark AR Mod 1 SPR Firedot on an American Defense QD mount. Been using it for years with no issues.

    I would also recommend the Aero light weight, Geissele super precision cantilever and Burris PEPR mounts. I have and use all of them and they all work as advertised.
