On second thought, I like mcgrubbs suggestion better. Why pay extra for NV settings your probably never going use? You will also be very pleased with the LaRue mount. |

 I LIKE MY AIMPOINT IN ITS LARUE TACTICAL CCO MOUNT, QUITE A LOT. OF COURSE, YOU CAN'T GET THEM ANY MORE WITH THE COLLECTOR GRADE STAINLESS HARDWARE LIKE MINE, WHICH HAS LONG SINCE TAKEN ON A DULL BRONZE TONE. YOU'LL HAVE TO SETTLE FOR BASIC BLACK. KEEP IN MIND THE ML2 HAS SEVERAL MORE DOT INTENSITY SETTINGS FOR DAYLIGHT USE THAN THE M2 DOES. THAT PRICE ON THE M2 YOU QUOTED IS QUITE COMPETITIVE, BUT IT DOES NOT COME STOCK WITH A MOUNT. THE OLDER COMP M, HOWEVER DID. BE SURE YOU ARE GETTING THE LATER COMP M2/ML2 WITH 30 TIMES THE BATTERY LIFE OF THE EARLIER VERSION. WES GRANT M.S.T.N. |

ALL REAR SIGHT APERTURES ARE ESSENTIALLY THE SAME HEIGHT ABOVE THE FLAT TOP RECEIVER, SO THE REAR SIGHT IS NOT A VARIABLE. IDEAL COWITNESSING OCCURS WHEN THE AXIS OF THE AIMPOINT OR EOTECH IS ACTUALLY HIGHER THAN THIS, TYPICALLY FROM 1.55" TO 1.7125" WITH THE SUCCESSFUL AIMPOINT MOUNTS OUT THERE. THE EOTECH AXIS IS ALSO 1.4". EOTECH USERS WILL BE WELL SERVED BY THE LARUE EOTECH MOUNT, WHICH GETS THE EOTECH UP ABOUT A QUARTER INCH HIGHER. THIS PUTS THE IRON SIGHTS IN THE LOWER THIRD OF YOUR FIELD OF VIEW, OUT OF THE WAY, WITH THE DOT CENTERED IN THE OPTIC. THE IRON SIGHTS ARE STILL AVAILABLE IF NEEDED, HOWEVER. WES |
