With the gun hanging lower with handle in any given situation,I would think banging the firearm would be very possible. A firm grip on the stock keeps it close.MHO
Interesting.
Or does carrying a rifle by the scope seem like a bad idea. Recent email from Larue

Come on guys, it’s not as if a carry handle has never been tried before, odd as it may seem to some of us. One person’s gimmick is another’s eureka!

Well, to be fair, that "carry handle" is a hold over from when it was a rail protecting the bolt handle which had been purposed as a sighting device since it was already in the way.it’s not as if a carry handle has never been tried before
I’m another who has been picking up my rifles from the deck by the optic for decades. If I had any incling there was risk of a zero shift, I wouldn’t buy that ring, base, or optic. Much, much more stress is put on my optics during use than simply picking up the rifle. I don’t carry by it, but it’s a scope, not a fragile radio antenna.
