Default Magnifier with swing mount?
Hi guys,
This is my first post. I own an mp15-22 with an aimpoint pro ontop. Last weekend at the range i found out i could use a magnifier y was looking around for alternatives. I would like to stay with aimpoint but i would rather prefer the swing mount that other brands like vortex offer. Anyone has tried such type of mounts and other brands of magnifiers?

Best regards

Rod

Sightmark includes a swing away mount on all their magnifiers, 3x, 5x, and 7x.

I got a genuine CompM4 and just ordered this magnifier;

3x Magnifier Scope with QD Pivot Flip to Side Mount for Aimpoint EOTech | eBay

If you have 2 weeks i can review it when i get it

Sadle Primary Arms isnt an option for me as they dont export, stupid ITAR law

Yes you are right.. Itar... Ill look at the link you gave....

Update: ok ebay.. Hong kong.... Its a good bet.. Its cheap compared to the original Aimpoint... I'll better wait for your review...

Photoracer: are those magnifier compatible with aimpoint? 7x for a 22lr? Interesting....

Yeah i know what you mean.

I’ve had contrastring results from China stuff, some where perfect, others not so much.
I’m gonna laugh my *** off on the range when I flip it open and the whole magnifier just flies away.

Just got a reply it’s shipped, probally will take about 2 weeks.

See also LaRue Tactical for swing-away magnifier mount --- if my QD flashlight mount is typical of LaRue stuff, it warrants the expense, seemingly obscene, until right up to and beyond the point that inferior stuff would have failed....

Yes, I have both...I have no problem with the eye relief. I haven't tried any other magnifiers, so I can't comment on them, but the Primary Arms stuff is first rate....

Why mount did you buy for the PA magnifier? Is it the LER magnifier?
