I'm sure plenty of you have figured out how to tighten a scope down and avoid this happening, but I have not. Just picked up a used Vortex PST 1-4 that came with a Bobro extended mount. I really like the QD system, but I'm not a fan of the horizontal split rings for the reasons already mentioned. The previous owner had mounted the scope and it was easy to see that it was canted. I remounted it and did have a little trouble getting the scope square, but got it to work out with a little effort. I don't like the need for a cutdown allen wrench either. Now that the scope is mounted, this should be a great mount for what I've got planned. |
I will say this much about Bbro, if you ever have a problem with there mounts the stand behind there product, mine somehow managed toship without the tension nuts, one e-mail latter and they sent them next day UPS Waiting on my scope to come in, will post pictures soon

I personally would just buy one WITH the QD mount that way you don't have to wait for the 'QD mounts sold separately' to come out. |

Primary Arms had them not long ago I believe. I don't know how many they had in stock though ... they are very very new. I just checked and they don't have them at this time. |

"The single lever 30mm mounts now have the new top access ring tops. We have the first of their kind on their way in two different models with SWFA labeling."
That is what these mounts should have been like from the beginning. Now Bobro is unbeatable.

These are definitely more practical, but not as slick looking as the original. |

My first Bobro mount came in this morning (an ACM-150). Hot damn, this is a nice mount! One unexpected benefit is that the cantilevered design moves the weight forward and improves the balance of the PRO on my 14.5" carbine. (No, that's not exclusive to Bobro.)
Assuming I don't have any problems with this one (I'm not expecting any issues) I may start switching over to these mounts, I like it that much. |

I have a 180 and it is nice. I think I would like the 150 better though. |
|
what scope is that? |

I've never been brave enough to take apart one, but yes, they can be reversed. |

Im loving the mini-acog mount. That is the only mount I do not have. 
It looks like the base is on backwards, shouldn't the level be on the other side? They come with the base installed 180 degrees, but I am a south paw and I reverse the bases on all my Bobro mounts.
can't the levers themselves be reversed? thought that was discussed in one of the archived bobro review threads. Not only the levers, but the bases as well. You can have the lever on either side and you can have the lever facing either forward or rearward. 
I have been waiting a long time for this. You're not the only one brother. I actually traded off my T1 because I was tired of waiting. Imagine my surprise when this showed up two weeks after letting my T1 go.
