No not enough rail. It may fit but one mount would be hanging off to some degree.
Now if you use the new LaRue LT152 low mount and a LaRue low M68 CCO , then both would fit but the 3X would stick back which is what you want anyway. |

I have a #22M68 but if something else would work I'd use it.
Why not just use two Larue M68CCOs? What does the LT152 do? My goal was to get the optics down as low to the rail as possible, since they are going on an M-14; I have a Rooster adjustable cheekpiece but would still like to keep the height above the bore down. |

Its the same as the 150 below but is shorter. It pushes the Aimpoint farther forward.
 Here is the LT122 aka M68 CCO RAS II low mount. The 152 is the same height as the 122 but looks like the 150 above.

The 152 would be optimal. That way the mount would be flush with the front of the Magnifier unit so it could be real close to the rear of the Aimpoint.
Any idea how many slots that would take? I've printed out pics of these sights on ARs and drawn on them, but its hard to tell...real close to wether it'd work or not. The Aimpoint/Magnifier combo seems to be the best choice for how I will use my M-14: battle rifle, not sniper rifle. |

The A3 upper receiver has 13 slots. I just tried the mounts and it will work with one slot to spare. I'm uploading pics, I'll have them up soon.
Edit: Here are the pics. Sorry about the quality all I had was my camera phone. This is the LT152 and 122 mount. They both line up perfectly. Notice the extra slot at the rear of the receiver.

Thanks Boom!
Is the 152 a replacement for the 122; will the latter be discontinued? |

No I do not think so. It the 122 was designed for use on the hump of the RAS II but I could be wrong. |

I have been able to get my LT150 with a Tripower to sit forward far enough to fit a 3X (also in an LT 150, but mounted backwards) and a BUIS all on my flat top. The forward edge of the LaRue mount sits forward off the top by about a half inch, but it is still mounted solidly and won't move.
Merry Christmas! ETA: The BUIS folds so it is underneath the 3X. A fixed BUIS won't fit. |
