    Update:
    US Optics confirmed today that this is their mount. Just wanted to thank everyone who helped me out on this.
    ——

    Anyone know the make and model of this scope mount? I have an armorer telling me it is a LaRue but I’ve used various LaRue mounts for years and never once come across this one.

    No info markings other than 0909.

    Thanks guys.

    Definitely not a LaRue, they mark their shit up so there's no mistaking what it is.

    That looks similar to a Eurooptic mount, only the ring cap is a little different as yours doesn't have holes in the top for mounting an accessory rail.

    Eurooptic Mount

    That being said, FN also has a similar mount with a solid top ring cap but the center of the mount body has holes instead of an oblong cut out like yours.

    FN Mount

    Eurooptic will probably be the best place to start to figuring out if its theirs or FN's.

    Yea lol I’ve used LaRue for a long ass time and their stuff is easily identifiable. But I had to ask just to cover my ass before I tell someone they are wrong. So just got a hit back from another dude and he said it could be a US Optics Mount. It looks almost identical to their UMQDS except that it has an open center like the EO Mount. So I’m hitting up USO and about to shoot a message to EO.

    Thanks for the direction on the EO, hadn’t come across that one yet.

    It shouldn’t be this hard to get specifics on issued equipment lol.

    I wasn't aware of the USO connection but I went down that rabbit hole a little more and found this thread, it appears there's some good info in there that could help clear things up. It appears that the EO/USO/FN mount is made my AWP, which jives with some of the EO model numbers and why all these mounts look practically the same.

    Good find, thanks man. At least my Monday will go quick now lol.
     
    Just got confirmation from US Optics that it is one of their UMQDS mounts.

    Thanks everyone!

    Yes, AWP made these for USO, EO, and others that brand them as their own. The mount was made origonally for the PSR solicitation. They are good mounts. Levels that you can get for them are nice and work well too. Its an overall nice mount.
