Not sure what I should do, need opinions.

i like the one piece. the less stuff to move or come lose, the better.

Decided to go for a $60 aluminum 1-piece DNZ Freedom Reaper mount. It fit my price range of $50-$80.

Looks like if I had shopped around a little I could have saved $10... Anyway, this is what it looks like (stock photo).

I use the ARMS #2 carry handle mount, with the ARMS #21 STANAG 30mm rings on my Bushmaster. The scope is a Weaver Classic Extreme 1.5-4.5X.
While not inexpensive, they are not out of sight either. The mount can be had for around $65, the rings for about $75. They are bullet proof, and well worth the money.

Nice setup, Mannlicher. But I decide to go for the DNZ Freedom Reaper mount. (Have moved the scope foward a tiny bit since taking the picture).
