What are the main differences in the mounts available for the Aimpoint ML3?
The different mounts that they offer are: LT 150 LT 152 LT 129 |
LT150
The LT150 is our standard Aimpoint M2/M3 mount that fits most applications...including AR flat tops. The 30mm ring fits a variety of optics with a 30mm tube. It will place the centerline of the optic 1.70" over the rail, giving you proper lower-1/3 cowitness of irons. It has a waterproof battery storage compartment on the bottom. LT129 
The LT129 puts M2/M3's at the same height as the LT150 on AR flat tops, but positions the optic forward of the receiver, if desired, or needed. Like the LT150, it has 30mm rings, and places the centerline of the optic 1.70" over the rail, giving you proper lower-1/3 cowitness of irons. It has a waterproof battery storage compartment on the side. LT152 
The LT152 was initially designed to work with the RASII raised rail. It places the centerline of the optic 1.20" over the rail, and is a popular mount for piston uppers, shotguns, and other raised MIL-STD-1913 railed firearms. Like the LT150 and LT129, the rings are also 30mm. It has no waterproof battery storage compartment. |
