I received mine this afternoon.

I mounted-it on an ADM SOCOM height mount. I like the two-tone look. Problaby leave it that way!

Anyone tell me is this a good deal?

Comes about to about 400 bucks. Is the mount any good?

I own/ use an Aimpoint M2. That said, I would pick-up the R1 instead. Because of longer batterry life, more common battery, and lighter weight.

I ordered mine (the R1) with the ADM two-piece high (SOCOM) mount shipped 2nd Day Air for $415.

That would be my suggestion, unless you require an NV capable sight.

P.S. It is a good mount.

I've got an H-1 on my 5.56 gun, and have been very pleased with it. I pulled the trigger on this R-1, which will go on my "HK 416" in .22 LR.

Thanks for posting this deal.

I purchased the micro r1 to go on an ultimak ak mount which I have yet to purchase. I believe that the ultimak is a true picatinny rail if Im not mistaken? I understand that the r1/h1 mounts are for weaver type rails. Will the R1 mount solidly on the ultimak or will I need a mount for a t1 which is for picatinny rail?

Got me for one. Should have bought two more at that price for stuff I want to set-up.

Down to 84. Looks like they will be gone by tomorrow.

I just sold my eotech 512 and was about to order an aimpoint ml2 in A larue mount but after reading ALOT on this forum I decided to take advantage of this deal before it ended. I just ordered an r1 and a larue lt751 mount directly from larue. Mu r1 will be here on 1/3/11 and not sure when I'll get the mount. I already have acanthus of paint on standby when it arrives. Thx everyone
