ACOG or similar for an HK91? (Now Aimpoint too)

[Steve Smith]

Does anyone have a good way to attach an ACOG to an HK91? Does it sit too high? Please advise on a good mount for both cheek weld and eye relief. Thanks!

 

[Wildalaska]

Doesnt trij make a specific mount?

Steve, you probably want to look at the TA03 - this is the ACOG Adapter for H&K rifles from Trijicon.

Do you have any 1913 or weaver rail available on the receiver of the HK91?

 

[Tamara]

Claw mount & 1913 rail.

Please advise on a good mount for both cheek weld...

I've got some bad news...

 

[El Tejon]

Even with my West Country (Devonshire) roundhead, I could never get a proper weld on my 91 or 93 so just stuck with iron.

Can you put one of those humps like on the PSG on it?

 

[Steve Smith]

Hmm, I bet I can put a PSG stock on it. I'll have to see how things go when I get home.

 

[Tamara]

Hmm, I bet I can put a PSG stock on it.

That was the bad news.

 

[Steve Smith]

Ugh, what is it Tam?

 

[Tamara]

Well, that you need to get a PSG-1 stock in order to use a scope effectively. A little spendy, but helps dramatically. Makes use of the irons a little awkward, though.

 

[Steve Smith]

Oh ok, I was thinking you were going to say it wouldnt' fit.

I will just have to try a few things...maybe I can see how easily I could use a sight with the collapsible stock, too. That I would really like.

 

[Bartholomew Roberts]

Take a look at the TA03 mount... it is similar to the mount Tamara listed; but since it is made specifically for the ACOG, the ACOG will sit a little lower.

Since you won't have to mount a 1913 rail and then mount an ACOG flattop mount on top of that, you may be able to get by with the regular stock.

 

[Dionysusigma]

Where might one procure a PSG-1 stock? Can one be made by hand for less?

Asking, because one of my dream rifles is a PTR-91 with a wide foregrip, PSG-1 buttstock, PSG-1-style pistol grip, and decent optic.

Something like this, but with a heavier barrel:

 

[Feanaro]

I haven't seen a PSG-1 stock for sale in a while but I seem to remember it had an ungodly price. No idea about the quality or ergonomics but a less expensive option exists. Anyone ever try one 'o these? http://www.brasscatchers.com/store/cheekrest.html

Last one I ever saw was $500. For a stock.

 

[Destructo6]

Bruegger & Thomet make some pretty low profile mounts for HK rifles.

Looks like they can be purchased in the USA though DSA:

[Steve Smith]

Ok, Aimpoint.

Aimpoint is my second choice and I think it would mount a lot lower. That is really by biggest concern. What do you guys think about these two with an Aimpoint Comp M?

Better?

 

[Derek Zeanah]

Not an HK owner, but I tend to believe that optics on a .308 oughtta have some magnification -- leave the aimpoints for the .223's out there.

 

[Steve Smith]

Good point Derek.

 

[NMshooter]

This was one of the reasons I sold that rifle. It is not optic friendly. There is a cheek piece available from the same folks that make the stock extension. I believe Bushmaster of all people sells it. Might want to check that out.
