I PM'd Glen last night after mounting up my 40X in an XLR Evolution chassis that arrived yesterday. I knew my low rings weren't going to cut it so I held on to a set of 1.45" AR High rings that I bought from Glen a few months ago for an upper that I put together. I put the AR High rings on and ended up with a .31" gap between the objective and the XLR forearm, a bit too high for my liking.
I asked Glen about the 1.26" rings that Vortex sells and asked if that was an accurate measurement since I hadn't seen them on Glen's website. Not only did Glen answer me first thing this morning but he confirmed that he made 1.26" rings and offered to swap me for the 1.45" AR Highs that I had.
He certainly didn't have to do that but I can't say I'm surprised. I've been using Glen's rings and bases since 2007 and I've never been disappointed. He gladly made me a one off base at my request several years ago. Just wanted to post up a public thanks. I know his business has grown considerably since I bought my first set of rings from him but he still goes out of his way to take care of his customers.
