Swapped the QRF for a KMR, and the 1.5 mount for a 1.93.
Also just snagged an SF Mini 2 for this one.

That's an Arisaka. There's one in the EE for $95 with an RMR plate right now. The T Rex also looks like it would clear though. ETA: Looks like the one in EE is sold. |

For the guys shooting with 1.70 and 1.93 mounts. Did you switch all your LPVO to that? I’m thinking of trying one but I already have a mini recce in a 1.5”. I’m afraid swapping back and forth will be a problem.
The new setup will have a razor the other gun has an nx8. |

I have a badger 1.70” with my accupower 1-4x and have shot my buddies mk18 with a 1.70” and a razor 1-6x... I also run a 3-10x in a 1.50” condition one mount. I love the 1.70” and it shines with LPVO, but I have found that a little more cheek weld is better with the height magnifications (8x +)... I had a geissele 1.93” and a 1-4x nxs, it was great except when shooting prone so I sold it. It really depends on what you’re doing. That being said, I think the 1.70” mount with a 1-6 or 1-8 and an offset RDS is pretty much a do everything setup. For what it’s worth, I leave my LPVO at the highest setting and just roll over to use the RDS if needed. T  Attached File Attached File |

That being said, I only have two LPVO-equipped rifles and they both have 1.93 mounts. It just works for the type of shooting I do with them. |

I still have one LPVO in a normal 1.5" mount, but I'm thinking of going back to red dot on that upper. I have a couple of 1.54" Condition 1 mounts, but all of those are mid power scopes (2-10 or 2.5-10). |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By 2apatriot: My current Mini works in progress. Just got the Nx8 and I'm pretty pleased. It does have a tight eyebox, but everything else about the scope makes up for that. This one would be done if I could get the URX timed to my liking. Its just hand tight at 12oclock, and I already have like 6 shims stacked up. I need an actual KAC shim kit, which includes a .025 shim, and they are OOS everywhere. The only other kits I can find only have .007 shims. Still trying to decide if I want to spray this camo or Aervoe Coyote. The 1.7 Badger mount is also pretty sweet, eventually this will also have an Aimpoint on a J-arm. https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/361805/CE6F6822-4AA3-47DD-BE67-9D6CF8244EDA_jpe-1816499.JPG This just needs the gas block and tube installed at this point.
