M14 Scope Mounts – Mesa Tactical
I was doing my weekly Google search for an aftermarket pistol grip stock for my Mossberg 500 Accessories 930 SPX (other than the atrocious Choate offering) and came across this: It’s the “Urbino” Tactical Stock made currently for Benelli Accessoriesand Remmington shotguns. http://www.mesatactical.com/forum/viewtopic.php?pid=2446#p2446 On page 11, Mitch states, “No plans at present.

The number of “doo hicky” parts are comparable on the SR25 and the M14 Scope Mounts. Both systems require a tool to replace the extractor, a punch for the SR25 and a chamber brush and combo tool for the M14 Scope Mounts. Both should have the springs and detents/pins replaced at the same [...]

Received this from a Threeper I trust implicitly regarding LaRue Tactical quality control problems and service issues. He included a copy of a series of emails back and forth beginning in December of last year. Here’s his latest to me:
Mike,
I’d like to warn people about buying scope mounts from LaRue Tactical since you may well not get the one you need, and then they won’t do anything about it. When you spend $250.00 for a scope mount, it damn well be the one you needed, especially when you called and spoke to their rep before ordering.
If you could warn your readers, I think it would be a great service to them. Perhaps ask David to do the same. The story is in the below email stream.
The picture of my rife, scope mount and scope fitted and bore-sighted attached. As you can see, it has to go all the way up to the turret to get a decent eye relief. Also, I had to crank it all the way up to get it bore-sighted for 100 yards, leaving no more elevation for greater distances.
Before anyone buys a quick disconnect sight from LaRue Tactical, they better know exactly what they need to get because the reps at LaRue have no idea.
The shame is that I have previously purchased two other mounts for ACOGS for my other rifles from them. Still they have no interest in rectifying this situation.
Thanks,

My son has been collecting the components to build himself a 7.62 NATO sniper platform on an Armalite receiver much like the one pictured. He was thinking, if memory serves me correctly, of getting a LaRue Tactical mount like the one pictured. I will discourage him from doing so. –

There are recently imported Yugo’s out there for around $279. Knowing how cheap they used to be I balk at the price but I’ve never heard anything bad about them.
ETA: Just found VG Yugo 59/66s at Samco for $259 and Excellent for $299. SOG may have some on their site, I don’t have time to look right now.

I’ve had 3 different SKS’s. A type 56 Norinco, a 59/66 Yugo, and a type 45 Russian (Tula). The only one worth anything was the Russian. I sold the other 2 and kept the “52 Tula. Russian SKS’s are in the $450 – $600 range here in SW Florida. At the last fun show, July ????, a guy had a ’54 Tula for $450 that was pretty nice.
My Russian goes bang every time. It’s reliable and accurate. Save your money and get a Russian. You won’t be sorry.

The Yugo 56/66 model is ok and right now Cabelas has a bunch on sale for $199.00, but I have never been a fan of them. Now if you can score a Yugo 59, they are sweet shooters but may cost you a little more. The Russian and Romanian I think are some of the nicest out there and I just put a Russian on layaway for $319, which is a decent price, but not great. I bought it to replace my other Russian that has a mismatched mag/floorplate.
Typical russians in the midwest are going in the $400 range with Romainians in the high 3′s.
Check the equipment exchange often for deals as Christmas is coming and people will start unloading some stuff.

I had a hell of a time with mine, until I got all of the gunk out of the gas system.
After that, NOTHING stops it. It’s also reasonably accurate, for what it is. I’m perfectly happy with it.
While I’d love to buy more at prices from several years back, $250-300 is still a pretty good deal for what you’re getting. A reliable, 10 round, semi-auto rifle that is built like a tank.

I said to myself. Interesting. I never knew that. But I have never seen an ACOG on a carry handle with two screws, just the one. Its not the guy that walks in with a gun and says he is going to start shooting that you have to worry about. Its the guy that just walks in and just starts shooting. Lindy_Hoppin_Gun_Nut Mar 2006 USA WA, USA 3380 : 0-0-0 : 6/9/2011 2:27:16 T Originally By WI57: Originally By Lindy_Hoppin_Gun_Nut: Originally By WI57: Since when does Trijicon reccomend drilling another hole in the carry handle…? It’s in the manual, complete with a drawing and all. I installed the ACOG on the carry handle without reading the manual first. I thought the purpose of the two holes on Ta01′s base is allow the operator to mount the optic on two different positions. Then I saw the drawing and the suggestion to drill another hole on the carry handle. “Crutz!” I said to myself. Interesting. I never knew that. But I have never seen an ACOG on a carry handle with two screws, just the one. Neither have I. It’s not an additional security for lateral integrity. I believe it’s for the rare chance that you drop your rifle and the front of the optic hit the pavement first, possible shearing the single screw off. The klutz that I am, I’ve had my rifles kiss the deck on a few occassions, but I’ve never seen them hit the ground optic first from the front. BillofRights Bronze Contributor Team Jul 2001 USA USA 18862 : 0-0-0 : 6/10/2011 1:49:56 Originally By Lindy_Hoppin_Gun_Nut: Originally By BillofRights: No, it works fine without it. Why destroy the resale value if you don’t have to? So far it’s been working fine without the second hole for me also. To be completely honest, I do not want to drill that second hole unless if it will actually improve things. Nothing to do with resale value – it’s more about the “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” adage. Yeah, that. Plus, why bubba up the gun when you don’t need to. I have one with one bolt and it nestles in so tight that I can’t really see how two bolts would be better. It ain’t what you don’t know that gets you into trouble. It’s what you know for sure that just ain’t so.
