Me too!!

Alright, weapons experts. I just got a new red dot for my AR, but the mounts it come with are way too low (unless I want to always aim at my front sight...). They have a replacement, but Im pretty sure >$200 is a RIDICULOUS amount to pay for a mount like this. Any recommendations?

Here is PFI's, but I'm sure any good 33MM mount should work just dandy...
Pride Fowler 33mm Quick Release Ring Mount

And here's the red dot I went with:

Lareau Tactical makes some of the best mounts for any type of optics. You will not be disappointed. Plus you always get a lot a cool free stuff.

I appreciate the reply, but I cant seem to find a 33MM mount there. Plenty of 30MM ones, though...

It depends on how sturdy you want the mount to be. If your gun is a high round-count tool or something you need to be durable enough to bet your life on, then $200 is about right for a good mount. If it's a low round-count range gun, a pair of simple rings or a cheap mount might be fine. You can find the rings even on Amazon for as low at $20. Or, go over to Primary Arms and look their stuff.

ETA: oops sorry, didn't catch the 33mm part. No clue about that. I've never even heard of an AR15 optic that needed 33mm rings.

Seems like a bit of an odd size, for sure.

eastwest2300 · 01-21-2012, 05:39 PM

Yeah 33mm is pretty odd.

MightyBobo · 01-21-2012, 05:54 PM

Hmm, how about this? Cheap, but it'd work...

NCStar makes airsoft stuff. I wouldn't want to use that on a real rifle!

Sorry, I more meant the product type (as in, the rail riser itself) - I already saw the complaints in comments/pictures about their quality.

Sell your current RDS at a profit.

Lol, I kinda doubt I'd make that much off of it :-p. I'll give it a shot before I do that. Ha ha, get it? Shot?

AR-15/M16 FLATTOP RISER - Brownells

m4a1mustang · 01-21-2012, 06:25 PM

Looks like it'd work but I'd prefer a regular mount.

eastwest2300 · 01-21-2012, 06:34 PM

Just keep looking, you'll find it.
