I have a Hensoldt RPG sight with sweet tank killer reticle. and chopped up the mount to fit in a cheap ass 30mm QD Ring from Hong Kong. The sight itself was nice, but the mounting left a little to be desired. It used part of the RPG mounting bracket to make my spacer for my 30mm ring (hack). Also with a Buis in place, I had to change my natural head position to get a full sight picture, which again I didnt like. Also the mount has some vertical slope in it. Although this doesnt change the point of aim when it moves, it is rather annoying. I decided to fix the eye relief problem first and this is what I came up with.

Its made out of 4130 DOM tubing. It was on hand and sturdy
I know it simple, but it helps alot. It was made long to accomadate a variety of shooters. Once its set for good, I plan on trimming off all that is forward of the ring. Also, This is getting sandblasted and painted tomorrow.

Next project is to build a better mount and come in way cheaper than most (cheap midwestern labor), because I hope to market and a bunch of other **** that we have brewing at the shop.
