m1a scope mounts

In 2002, the Marine Corps Weapons Training Battalion in Quantico, VA evaluated our titanium scope mount and spring guide. The NCO in Charge, at that time, SSgt Raymond A. Conrad wrote, "Both pieces showed a good finished product. The spring guide fit our springs and positively held the magazines. The overall tolerances of the scope rail were good and we did not have a problem adjusting to zero."
Our Brookfield-type scope mounts are a positive 3-point design that allows removal and re-assembly without losing zero. The Picatinny-style rail is machined to Mil. Spec 1913 and provides universal scope mounting. Our titanium mounts are made from an aerospace-quality hot-forged billet (limited production), not from a casting or plate. It is tougher and stronger, yet weighs 40% less than steel. It has a 26-30 Hardness Rockwell C (HRc) and has been surface coated for a non-glare, matte-black finish. This coating increases the surface hardness to approximately 80 HRc, adding to its corrosive and abrasive resistance.
The steel mounts are made from stress-relieved 4142 bar stock with a hardness of 28-32 Rc. The finish is Mil. Spec. black manganese phosphate. All mounting hardware, fasteners, and hex wrenches and detailed instructions are included. Scope rings not included.
