    LaRue ACOG T1 Mount

    Has anyone else seen the LT-696 mount with an ACOG and the Aimpoint T1? I don't know how to attach a link, but it looks pretty cool.

    Just and FYI...

    I love the idea.

    Right now I have an ACOG with JPoint. I may replace the JPoint with a Dr Optic. I think the T1 would be even better because it seems more rugged and has a 5 year battery life.

    Remember, the RDS over the ACOG is for CQB. The idea is to 'get into the sight' (as they say in the business) quickly. If you need a good sight picture then you use the ACOG.

    Rest your chin on the stock?

    Why not put 1913 rails on the top and then at 45 to the left and right?

    Looks like it bolts the T-1 on with the four screw on the bottom. Get's it lower, but you'd have to remove the ACOg to get the T-1 off.

    Knock the front sight off of the ACOG so that you can slide in in with a lower platform for the T-1, or make it so the top half of the bridge comes off, maybe even with spacers for different ACOG heghts. I would think that you could get it so that the T-1 glass is even with the ACOG top turret.

    Interesting.

    $717!!! It took me a second to realize that this is wiht the T-1 included.

    Oh, so true!

    A single base with an off set mount so the T-1 clears the ACOG and its center 2.6" off the bore axis; that fits the flat top upper and leaves room for a BUIS would be much preferred.

    The idea behind this mount is so you don't have to rotate the rifle 45 degrees. That technique might be the heat for competition but it is much harder to execute in actual combat shooting, in body armor, from less than ideal shooting positions.

    Imagine wearing a protective mask while using it.
