This video provides a comprehensive guide on how to properly mount a scope, specifically an LPVO (Low Power Variable Optic), onto an AR-15, AR-10, or any rifle. The demonstration features a Vortex Razor Gen 3 1-10 FFP scope mounted on a Badger Ordnance Condition One mount, with an Aimpoint T2 micro red dot mounted on top. The tutorial covers essential steps such as achieving the correct diopter ocular focus and setting proper eye relief for individual users. Several essential tools and accessories are mentioned and linked, including Fix It Sticks torque wrench, thread locker, Tipton Ultra Gun Vise, Wheeler Scope Leveling Kit, and a Vortex Torque Wrench.
This video offers a practical "PRO-Tip" on rifle scope eye relief, specifically for prone shooting positions. It guides viewers to find their optimal eye position by marking their eye's location while comfortable in the prone stance with their rifle. The instructor emphasizes adjusting scope mounting based on this marked position, noting that higher magnification might require a slightly closer eye relief. The technique aims to improve comfort and reduce neck strain, especially when "locked into the rifle" in the prone position, contrasting it with bench shooting where head movement is less restricted. The video also promotes an upcoming scope series and provides links to Ghost Firearms Training, Tract Optics, and 360 Precision.
This video introduces the AT3 Delta 3X Red Dot Magnifier, highlighting its extra-wide field of view, advanced Quick Detach mount, and an industry-leading 3-inch eye relief. The description emphasizes upgraded glass clarity and covers the product with AT3 Tactical's Lifetime Warranty. It also promotes the channel's AR-15 and AR-10 builder's guides and mentions ongoing giveaways. The content is intended to provide helpful, fact-driven information to the AR-15 shooting community, promoting safer firearm handling and building.
This is the first part of a two-part comprehensive guide on precision scope mounting for rifles. It covers fundamental principles, methods, and essential equipment for correctly mounting an optic. The video emphasizes the importance of eliminating variables, understanding different mounting techniques, and crucially, how to verify the accuracy of your leveling tools and ensure the scope is parallel to the rifle's bore. It also touches on establishing proper eye relief and preparing mounts with Loctite and torque values. The video promotes specific products and services from Paramount Tactical Solutions, run by former Special Forces personnel.
This video from Tactical Rifleman explains how to properly zero Low Power Variable Optics (LPVOs) for combat carbines. It discusses the evolution of optics from fixed-power ACOGs to modern LPVOs, highlighting their advantages like 1x capability for close quarters and increased magnification for distance, while acknowledging their compromise nature. The video emphasizes the importance of proper mounting for eye relief and mastering the reticle to achieve an "awesome" and effective zero. It encourages viewers to watch, bookmark, and share the content for those seeking to master their LPVOs.
This video features an unboxing and installation of a Holosun 510C-GR green dot optic onto a Smith & Wesson M&P Rifle (AR-15 platform). The creator discusses their decision to choose the green dot over red for better eye relief and highlights the optic's features such as long battery life, solar power, and titanium construction. A future range test is planned to evaluate its performance during dynamic shooting scenarios like "run and gun."
