Oh hell ,why not ? Any way I have a Larue LT- 129 Cantilever mount that I bought with my Aimpoint ML3,and I have to say the mount is rock solid and I switch out that mount with another mount that I have a 1x4 scope mounted in.When I put the Larue LT-129 back on my rifle so I have my red dot It goes back to zero perfectly every time that I cant notice any difference in my point of aim.
Not that's it a mount exactly,but my VFG which is a Larue also is solid as a rock and the quick detach mount makes it a pleasure to use.

I'll be ordering a Larue optic/mount combo soon. I have no clue what Im going to get though. Im looking at everything from Aimpoints, to Trijicon ACOGs, to Leupolds.
Ive read that Larue mounts are second to none. Although I dont fancy paying so much for a mount, I figure its the smart thing to do. |

If money is not a factor I see no point in using any other mount than a Larue

If you buy the optic with the mount directly from larue the price is pretty good. |

I have a few rifles with Larue mounts.
AR10 with Nightforce in a LT-104 mount 
5.56 build I recently did with a Comp M3 in a Larue Cantilever mount 
A precision build I did with a Nightforce in a LT-104 mount 
Another 5.56 build with Comp M4/Magnifier in Larue Mounts 
SBR with Comp M4/magnifier in Larue Mounts 
My 6.8 with a Leupold mounted in a LT-104 mount 
As you can see I am a big fan of Larue mounts. |

My favorite mounts are from Larue.
Here's a slightly out of date pic of my rifles with various Larue mounts.

I bought one SPR-E and now I will never buy anything but LaRue for AR platform mounts. They are perfect and I'm picky; it's a good match. Mounts are absolutely repeatable every time I take them off and put them back on. It's hard to believe, but it's true.
SPR-E hoping to put a new Burris XTR14 in place of the Millet soon 
SPR-S 10moa mount for my new Ziess Conquest 4.5-14x44

I wish Larue would ALSO eventually incorporate the TICK MARKS on their QD Speed Levers –– to assist especially when moving from one upper to another :)

LaRue Tactical Cantilever CompM2 LT-129 QD Speed Lever mount (also known as M68-CCO) on my Colt AR6721 AR-15A3 Tactical Carbine 
LaRue Tactical EOTech LT-110 QD Mount on my LMT 16" M4gery 
I'm very satisfied with the performance of all my LaRue optic mounts, including my LaRue 9.0 rails and FUG VFG. I also have a LT-104 SPR 1.5 QD mount with my 3-9X40 hunting scope that I'm also very satisfied with which I use during the hunting seasons, all my future mounts will be always LaRue for sure. 
ETA: Added pic of my LT-104 with Nikon 3-9X40 scope note plenty of clearance (0.25") with my Troy FDE BUIS |

Just got my Eotech mount in the mail, as soon as I mounted it I noticed it pushed the optic to the right quite a bit. The battery latch in now way off center and is distraction when trying to co-wittness in the bottom 3rd of the lens.. Also its not holding zero when I take it on and off.. I was a good 3 inches low and 2 to the left after I remounted it
 ... I took it off, remounted it a second time and had the same results... Its a shame, I like the idea of the mount, and the qucik detach feature, however it just seems like I spent 134 bucks to create 2 new problems that I wouldnt have if I had just left it alone. Now whether I send it back and try a new one, or just get my money back im still going to have to rezero the damn thing yet again....

Well to be completely honest with you, I just sent my Eotech out for repairs.. Figured since I was going to sight it in again anyway might as well slap a mount under her. So it could indeed be the optic. I looked at it real close again and the battery compartment doesn't seem to seat completely flush or square,so that could be what the issue is there... I could careless about that honestly as its just a cosmetic thing. As long as I can get it to zero and hold zero after remounting it ill be a happy camper, Ill take her our after the rain stops...unmount and remount a few times and see if I cant get it to work Regardless the dillo dust makes up for all the troubles, that stuff is good lol... |

Assuming LaRue Rings are in scope for the discussion here...
I've got a set of LT-123's where a NF 5.5-22x56 lives on top of my MAK tubegun. Normally I wouldn't have QD rings on something like this, but I wanted to be able to take the scope off and use irons for XTC and other stuff. If I didn't need QD's I'd likely <EDIT: re-read thread "rules", edited for compliance ––Slice> The LT-123's are really high quality rings. Didn't require any lapping at all, and grip the rail like a vise. While I wouldn't say they've got an absolutely perfect return to zero when remounting, I've never had them be off more than 1 or maybe 1.25 MOA, usually less. When you think about the precision required to make that happen, it's amazing really. I'm impressed –– happy as I could be with them. Will see if I can scrounge up a pic. -Slice ETA: Pics   |

LT-152 vs LT-150 or LT-129.
I see most members here with the LT-150 or LT-129 on their ARs. I believe these are lower 1/3 co-witness. Is the LT-152 absolute co-witness? I tried the LT website and unfortunately, it didn't say either way (or I missed it). Also, I've never had the privilege to try any of them. I just have the Aimpoint QRP-2 mount. Does anyone use the LT-152 with a standard FSB and how do you like it? |
