I tried it in both types of USGI NV brackets and I have to force it in and pry it out? Is this right?

Seems the hight from the base to the shelf under the top lip is too big. is that normal?

Mine fits multiple USGI baseplates and Norotos Universal Shrouds fine. Occasionally the MPLS baseplate needs to be removed from the headlamp to be snapped into the NVG baseplate, but it pops out just fine.

ETA: Where'd you get your baseplate? Occasionally there are reports of Airsoft ones that are horribly out of spec getting into the second hand surplus market.

There is definitely something perverse about two men who carry guns 24/7 being so happy that others are giving theirs up. -happycynic

I have 2 different mounts and same issue with both. as to where I got them, both off the EE from different people

I will get pics up sometime tomorrow, to show the issue

ETA: the rino arm locks in tight but comes out easy, That's my only other measure.
