I've seen these scopes on ebay, they mount on the carry handly, has anyone bought one, hows the quality? For 40 bucks, I dont expect much, but hey, you never know.

I'm going to assume you're talking about the Leapers carry handle scope.

I've heard that a lot of guys use them, and that they work OK, but that you first have to loc-tite the screws that secure the mount to the scope, or that they will come loose rather quickly.

Boy does that look like the "AR15" scope that came on my HK when I bought it-blech it sucked even for a cheap scope. Takes special rings, but it looks like they include them with the purchase
