| Im waiting for my Rock River elite comp rifle to be shipped to me so I figured I would start buying all my accessories in the meantime. I have an aimpoint comp m2 and am thinking about mounting it on my rifle with a LaRue Tactical Cantilever CompM2 LT-129. I dont think that I will be purchasing a magnifier for this rifle but I like the way the mount looks and it appears that it will provide good eye relief while still allowing peripheral vision. Any thoughts on this? |
If there are no plans for a magnifier, there is no need for a cantilever mount. But, like you said, you think "it looks cool" , so whatever blows your skirt up. Myself, I dont see the point in spending the extra money for what amounts to jewelry.
Im running the LT150.. |

I'd get the cantilever mount just because it allows versatility. I couldn't say that I will NEVER use a magnifier. The mount will last a lifetime. I could think of more reasons to use the cantilever than to not.
They are the same price ... and the cantilever mount has a built in battery storage compartment. You can move this mount forward or back anyway, so eye relief wouldn't be a problem at all. Actually you would have MORE versatility with eye relief using the cantilever. I've got one on it's way to my house right now
