The mount is very attractive due to weight.
But I found a fatal flaw in mine. I can’t tightly get a scope in it with out the scope spinning. As you tighten it more the scope spins. My arisaka levels don’t help this.
I had one of these mounts for a short while just to try it out. They are an excellent example of "you get what you pay for." If you're priorities are lightweight and low cost then these are the mounts for you. If you want known durability, you've got to pay more. I would never put these mounts on a duty rifle.
For the sake of discussion, what would be the lightest weight one piece mount(s) that are considered durable enough for a duty use carbine with an LPVO?
What if this whole crusade's a charade?
And behind it all there's a price to be paid
For the blood which we dine
Justified in the name of the holy and the divine…
I’d say the night force unimount. They are a little over 5oz I believe. A lot of the competitors like geiselle and badger are in the 7-8 oz range.
Scalar works makes a mount. It’s lighter, more expensive and more complicated. I’ve never put hands on one, so I don’t know how good it is. But honestly I never intent to but a mount that doesn’t have top half caps.
I’ve got a 34mm one. Its lighter than my equivalent-ish ADM mounts, which I use with my 30mm LPVOs. It was kind of a pain to mount, but not terrible. It seems solid, but it hasn’t taken a real bad spill yet. I’ve also got a few G mounts, but replaced them with ADMs. The G ones are good, but overrated, IMO. Or, at least for my use. I’d like to try a Badger in the future. Everyone I’ve spoken to that has one thinks it is great, and I think they could be right.

My DD has been a good solid LW mount that doesn't kill the wallet too bad like some others, but I prefer a taller mount.

I really like my Scalarworks 1.93". Very LW with clean low profile, but damn that price tag is a killer. I swore I wouldn't pay 4 bills for a damn scope mount, but I'm a liar and probably will be again now that they have updated with their offset KICK mounts. I'd also like to try the Unity FAST mount and Badger C1. G mounts with Reptilia ROF have also been GTG.
Gettin' down innagrass.
Let's Go Brandon!
