Can you guys give me any feedback on the AimPoint Twist Mount and Samson Quick Flip Mount for the AimPoint 3X Magnifier? Does anyonw know if the spacer is needed on the Twist Mount when used behind and EOTech?  I'm really curious to hear what you guys think about these 2 mounts.....

Thanks,
Mike

Has some pix of the 3x and Eotech

Personally I will purchase the 3x and Samson Quick Flip Mount when I get done with my other toys.  The Quick Flip just seems to be a lot practical.

You will need the spacer with the twist mount. I personally like the twist mount the best as I don't want gear sitting on my weapon if I am not using it (added weight).

Bro, I got the Samson quick flip also. It works very well.

My thought was why have it if it isn't readilly availible.  The samson mount makes sense as it cams the mount out of the way but leaves it readilly availible -- flip the switch and enter a building, come out and flip the sight back over.  I would like to see a La-rue mount for it and a spacer for height ajustment for the new EO-tech that is supposed to be comming out (600meter BDC).

I would just carry the 3X in a pouch. If a target came up that needed ID'd or I had to make a more precise shot I would simply throw it on (have gone from pouch to weapon in 3 seconds).

As you know, diff. missions require diff. optics. They (SF) carry several diff. optics and simply change them out as needed (the 3X is no diff.)

I am pretty sure that LT will NOT be making a specific mount for the 3X (not enough interest).
