ARMS Mount for M14/M1A

[Sactown]

I'm looking to scope my M1A. I have an IOR M2 lying around and I figure I might as well get some use out of it. I've read that the ARMS mount (#18?) is the preferred method of mounting a scope on the M1A. Does the ARMS mount allow for the use of iron sights? Does anyone know a source that sells it at a decent price? I've seen them in the $175 range.

TIA

yes you can still use the irons with the mount.. i have one, the new style, full rail, its not easy, but they do allow use of the irons,

175 is about right

They are a great company. I jammed up the threads in the front pressure point on mine and they sent me a new one within a week. The iron sights work fine.

Frank Sottile is the man...

Frank has the best prices anywhere; he also is very easy to work with. See these two threads:
