[QUOTE="ez bake, post: 977160, member: 229"] Sampson and LaRue are the only two that I'd use with any level of seriousness - If you're looking to go budget, Primary Arms sells a flip-to-side mount that would work, but anytime you've got moving-parts being machined (and the cost is way to low to believe), expect things like imperfect fit, imperfect co-witnessing, a lot of play (loose-ness) when in either active or out-of-the-way position, etc... I think the general consensus (from what I've read) is that a QD mount for a magnifier is better than a flip-to-side mount, but that wouldn't stop me from buying a Sampson or LaRue just to try them out. [B]Oklahoma Stronghold[/B] I've got both a cantilever and a standard high LaRue Aimpoint mount on my ARs and I can tell you that if you want to run rear flip-up Iron, magnifier, and optic (Aimpoint or clone), you need a cantilever mount. If you don't have a rear Iron, then you don't need the cantilever mount unless you just like the optic that far forward (and a lot of people do). [/QUOTE]
