I have an older DSA FAL Para (with an LMT receiver) that I would like to use with an ACOG TA-11 with a red chevron reticle.  I do not care for the excessive height of the stock ACOG mount and top cover so that configuration was a no-go for me.  Last night I discovered that DSA makes an ACOG direct mount rail that reduces the height of the sight on the FAL and I'd like to know if any of you have tried this set up and if so how did it work out for you?  Thanks!

The DSA ACOG direct mount rail:

I’m considering the same cover/mount.  This guy has one:
DSA Commando Para FAL with ACOG
I wanted a mission, and for my sins, they gave me one.
I love it. God help me, I do love it so. I love it more than my life.

Thanks for that YouTube video.

It looks like the height of the ACOG wasn't excessive, I'll buy one of the DSA ACOG mounts this weekend, thanks.

I received the DSA Para ACOG mount today. After carefully measuring everything the ACOG will only sit 7mm lower that it currently does with the OEM ACOG mount; that is not low enough to justify spending $169.95 so I will return it to DSA.  The mount is also not machined as deep as it appears in the pic above and on their website.

Maybe see if you can find one of the ACR stock adapters?

That is an interesting mod, I didn't know it was a thing, thanks.  I currently have an Aimpoint Micro T1 mounted on my DSA FAL Para and I will probably just leave it in that configuration.

Knights Armament makes a slick top cover with the mount attached to it.  I chose it for my DSA/OSW Para and am very happy with it.
I'd like to post a pic but am unable.

Knight's makes a FAL scope mount?
