MY ADVICE IS TO LOSE THE SO-CALLED LOW RISE TACTICAL CARRY HANDLE AND MOUNT THE OPTIC DIRECTLY TO THE UPPER RECEIVER, PREFERABLY VIA A LARUE TACTICAL LT100 ACOG MOUNT.

LIKE THIS:

3.5X35 TA-11 SHOWN.

Get rid of the carry handle first, then decide what the rifle will be doing. If you want more precision, go with the TA31F. If you want something more for CQB go with the TA31. The TA31A is a good combination of the two. There are other versions of the TA31F for support roles and I'm not a huge fan of the TA01 series but they are good as well. As far as mounts, I have the ARMS #19 single lever mount and have had no problems with it at all. The Larue mount is next on my list then the ARMS #19 dual levers.

+1 for getting rid of the carryhandle and going with the larue mount.
