Is that a non branded Geissele mount?

Also, I have the same scope basically. If that's the 1-4 viper pst. I have the 1-4 ranger. Same exact thing as the gen 1 viper pst

 

From what I just heard almost 200k nics checks Friday alone and that doesn’t include everybody that ordered stuff and has to wait for delivery

 

Correct, I would never pay the extremely overpriced prices that so many companies are asking for their scope mounts. I Hone and lap
all of my rings to match the scopes that I’m mounting weather their mono or two piece, especially if they’re two piece. I don’t care how well they’re made, if they are two individual pieces they will never be true to one another unless if you left them after mounting them. I look at it this way, you buy a decent set of rims no matter your application and $100 laughing set go through every single one up instead of buying $350 scope mount every time you need one

 

PM where you got it if you don't mind. thanks

 

They do say they have an unconditional warranty

 

Don’t laugh, I have had people do stuff of that nature and then contact me on how to put it back together!
And in the conversation I ask them when they were taking it apart if they heard a “poof” while disassembling?
And they replied back, yeah!
What was that?
And I reply, that was the end of the life of their scope taking its last breath

 

certain things i dont mess with, taking down a scope all the way would be one of them.

 

Aren't they gas filled too?

 

Yes, that would be the "POOF"

 

Well vortex will fix that too.

 

So, isthe “poof” the release of pressurized gas or air within the scope?

 

I think they use some kinda gas to prevent it from fogging. Technically air is gas haha!

 

Dry Nitrogen is what the google says

 

They purge the air in the optic out and is replace by nitrogen or argon gas to prevent fogging in temp swings. So that sound is the nitrogen or argon escaping and regular o2 entering.

 

Gotcha. Thanks for the explanation...I figured it was something along those lines.

 

Anyone have Sig MCX rattler? Pros an cons??
