Hi Folks
Those of you who really know me, know that I suffer from somekind of optical ADHD.
I try different optics in different mounts, until the "perfect one" is found. So it all flows,
looks factory and is functional.
I tried various optics and wasn't really happy until I stumbled across a nice deal on an
Elcan OS4X. Having remembered this is the new optic for the MOD, it had extra coolness
built right in. Put it on the rifle and immediately was struck with the flow of the rear curve
of the scope into the top of the reciever. Checked eye relief and it was perfect on my favorite
position on the stock.
Then I remembered, I have sights for this rifle, and was inspired by the CF's C79 Elcans on their
Diemaco's, and they mount their BUIS just forward of the Elcan. Which is how it's set up on my LSW clone.
So I mounted the irons, and with the rear diopter on 1, the sight picture too was perfect. These are nice irons!
Now here is the result, it's definitely heavier, but the set up is about as perfect as I can imagine.
The optic is first class, and seems to compliment the lines of the rifle, and allow for the use of the
BUIS without any extra expense, so a big win-win.
Another view, what cannot be seen is the Surefire muzzle break. Have yet to fire in this set up, but can imagine
it's going to be nice
