<br />I'm not sure on the GG&G call, Matt.

I see 6 hex allen screws in that photo. Oh wait, the photo mount is backwards.

I think its the GG&G one, anyways... Its got that strange diagonal top/bottom ring connection and the two step neck instead of the smooth continuous one like on the KAC model.

I think the issue with the backwards mount would depend on whether it was being used on a standard M4 receiver mount or on the extended rail like Bruce's character has.  You want the Aimpoint and the AN-PVS14 to be close together for them to work properly and the PVS-14 needs to be close to your eye to use that properly.  So if you want the best eye releif you can get with the Aimpoint and still be able to utilize it properly with the PVS-14 then using the mount backwards would most likely be the way to accompish that.  Look at this picture of a PVS14 and you'll see that the GG&G mount would push the scope too far back due to the extension on the rail.  Reversing it will allow the Aimpoint and scope to mount closer together.

This is a cool virtual picture of one.

I was wondering if anyone knew what type of aimpoint mount they used in the tears of the sun movie. It slanted back and up, looked nice thought id ask.
