I am considering getting either a TA39-4 or a TA50-4 for a flattop. I really like the idea of a quick detachable LaRue mount, but is it the right height? Does the Special Ring Base give me any advantage being able to switch between low, medium and high rail adaptors? What is the best height? 1. A Compact ACOG with the built-in M16 mount and a LaRue Compact mount. 2. A Compact ACOG with Special Ring Base and a Low, Medium, or High rail adaptor. Low  Medium  High  LaRue  |

While I personally have not tried the Comp ACOG on a flat top, I tend to preffer the M16 base on the Comp ACOGs. The only time I would get the ring base model is if I were using it on some gun that required a very low mount. Like on a HK or something else that had a high mounting platform already. For the ARs, I like the M16 base. if you want it on a flat top I would probably be using the LaRue mount. If you want to put it on a carry handle, jsut take it off the LaRue mount and put it on the carry handle. No need for another mount. It just seems simpler to me?

Hi,
I am running a compact acog with the Larue mount and an ARMS 40L. The Larue puts the acog at the perfect height for use on a flat top. The ARMS 40L lets you move the compact acog back further. I have a 1.5x24 which has 3.6in of eye relief, so if you are using a 3 power acog with the 1.5 in of eye relief, that will make a big difference in getting a full FOV in your compact acog.
