M4gery optics: Scope rings or one piece mount?

Mondo · February 21, 2008, 09:51 PM

I recently got my doublestar m4rgery and have ordered a Vari X III for her.

However I am conflicted about mounting the Leupy with rings or a integrated ringmount similar to these:

With rings, it looks like you have to get the right height else the FSB will block your FOV. However, with rings, I can move the scope between my guns. I have a full size A2 and a 10.5" Commando and it would be great to be able to move the scope around.

With a ringmount, I can mount to my flattop.

What do you think? What did you chose for your M4gery and why? Pics are welcome.

I have an Armalite M15A4(T) flattop with a Leupold 1.5x5 on an ARMS A.R.M.S. #35Q Throw Lever Mount.

So far, its worked very well, and holds zero well when removed and replaced. I also have an Aimpiont on an ARMS A.R.M.S. #22M68 Throw Lever Ring as a back up. They pop on and off at will.

The scope and mount look like this....
