LaRue Tactical
Of course, as in the case with LaRue Tactical mounts, this is greatly over-exaggerated, as it would take hundreds of on/off operations to weaken them. Note that this is not an issue with the Bobro mounts, as they continually self-adjust. So why don’t more people use spring-based mounts? Simple: more parts = more points of failure. That said, I’ve never seen ONE example of a spring-based mount failing in combat. Take it for what it’s worth to you. Interesting post (especially about the mount recommendation from optics manufacturers). C4 C4IGrant 04-26-10, 22:14 What the hell is going on with this site lately? Who cares if they leave a mark on your rail? It’s a firearm, it’s not meant to look pretty, it’s a tool nothing more and nothing less. Do you care if your hammer has a mark on it from driving nails? If a mount locks solid to my rail and holds zero, thats what I care about. If the mount leaves a mark I couldn’t care less. For the love of all thing holy this shit has got to stop. For the record, LT mounts that are tightened properly WILL leave a mark. You know why? Because they are doing their job. Marks are just fine. Where the problem happens is if a pocket/dent is formed. As the weapon recoils, that pocket will continue to become deeper. Over time, the mount can become loose on the rail. I have access to some high speed video of guns being fired. What goes on with mounts during recoil is shocking. C4 TRIDENT82 04-26-10, 22:25 Marks are just fine. Where the problem happens is if a pocket/dent is formed.

C4 LOVE to see those videos of that recoil if you have the chance to link it pal:) Robb Jensen 04-26-10, 22:30 QD and you actually remove the mount from time to time. Expect a zero shift. QD and non-QD and you don’t EVER remove the mount. No shift. That’s life, some don’t like the truth but that’s simply it. C4IGrant 04-26-10, 22:31 LOVE to see those videos of that recoil if you have the chance to link it pal:) Maybe some day, but for now I will keep it to myself. C4 trg42 04-27-10, 08:57 I take off my AR optics all the time, most of which are mounted in LaRue Tactical mounts. Quite honest with you I never cared how much of a shiney spot it leaves ….thats how I know which slot it goes in. Much easier than remembering the T mark.
