ARMS quick release scope mount won't hold zero...

[anymanusa]

The company guarantees zero, because they claim the quick release pulls down instead of horizontally, but I can't keep zero on any of my picattiny rails on my rifles. It is a little too loose, and the p.o.i. jumps around a lot.

Are their shims for sale to help this problem?? What are my options?

Thanks.

I assume that you know your rails are milspec, right? ARMS is no Larue, but it should be able to hold zero fine.

If I was certain my rails were correct, I would contact ARMS and request a replacement. Failure to re-zero is a "you get what you pay for" kinda deal, but failure to even hold zero is a serious defect.

I have four different rails that the ARMS will not hold zero on, one of which is a bushy flattop, another bushy spacers. The other two are just cheapo rails. I assume the bushy stuff is milspec, but that is only an assumption.

According to the folks over on AR15.com failure to maintain zero is actually pretty common with ARMS mounts.
