Anyone using the Daniel Defense 1 o'clock offset mount? If so, is it an easy transition to shoot from that position?
Any opinions and experience would be appreciated, so would pics!

| It is easier to transition to than a 45 degree mount. I found that I just did not like tilting my gun over, and I shoot a 1-4x optic to solve that problem. The DD 1 o'clock mount is a great option for a mini red dot on a different plane, but two planes of optics isn't for me. |
I like it a lot on my rig. I was using it with a SS 10x scope but have a ACOG TA31H coming any day now that will be sitting on top with the T-1. I find that after training with it, you get very fast transitioning to it. I personally think that it is an awesome setup if you can shell out the $$$.

Any chance of a point of view pic? As in, looking down the rifle as you would if it was to your shoulder? I think I have one on another rifle. Let me check... Here is one but with no scope on:

It's not perfectly down the sights, but you can get an idea. It's really not as bad as you would think. I was hesitant at first too. Hope this helps. |

Do you keep the same cheekweld when switching to the T1? Not really, my head doesn't move but my wrist does. I can easily and quickly flip the rifle about 30 degres back and forth and be right where I need to be for both optics (eye relief). As I said before, once you practice with it, it really isn't much of an issue for the gains that you get from the setup. I'd look up some 3 gun videos online as they will show you a lot of guys transitioning in real time. |
