I want to put a scope om my M1A. I have been looking at the low profile Bassett mount. Would a rail be as accurate as a mount and if so which rail would you recommend?
M1A rail or scope mount

Re: M1A rail or scope mount
My Bassett Picatinny (high) will be here tomorrow, replacing the gen 3 SA I had on the M1a that I never could get to work. My train of thought on this subject is that I want to have the ability to go to the iron sights as back up, with the low mount or the forward rail you will lose this capability. I will be getting the front rail mount so I can instal a light and laser to round out the rifle, not really needed but ya never know.

Take a look at this:

Can run forward mount optics or traditional mount optics and still use the irons by a groove down the middle of the rail.

Re: M1A rail or scope mount
Can you get enough of a cheek weld with a strap on cheek pad to use a good scope and mount???

Re: M1A rail or scope mount
I would very highly recommend the Sadlak Ti or airborne mount.
I would suggest a kydex cheek rest instead of the strap on ones, they suck.
The TacPro is a good one.
