I have a Smith M&P 15 Moe. I recently bought a Leupold VX-R patrol 1.25 x 4 for it.
I need a mount. Was thinking about an Aero Precision or Larue, but the more I read about mounts, the more I see almost exclusively glowing reviews for Bobro.
This is the mount I am currently considering:

Any reason why this won't work for me? They also have extended version of same mount, should I consider that?
Thanks in advance for any advice.

Bobro is amazing for a QD mount.
Aero is amazing for a non-QD mount.
LaRue is old technology, but that doesn't mean it's bad or ineffective. USSOCOM used LT mounts when testing the MK6. Both did fine.
All depends on who you like/dislike personally, and what your goals are. For example, there is gear I refuse to buy because of who made/sells it, even though it works just fine. Politics and favorites play a role now days when we have so many viable options.
Politics aside, Bobro sets the bar for RTZ. Aero, for weight.
