I am a fan of the Aero Precision mounts, though, for about the same price and they are made in the USA.

It has lugs.

Made in USA or China? I might have missed that.

Rise your hand if you're a cold blooded Ninja killer who has truly put a scope mount through it's paces? Nunya? Yeah. :) Good mount man. Lots of fun on the range for showa!

Plenty of LE and Mil types on here that have put gear through the ringer in the line of duty.

Don't take it personally Joel. Just ribbing you a little!

It's true. Everyone gets it now and again. :)

The new Vortex scope mounts do look sexy. Pairing with the Lantac doesn't hurt either.

Simply bolting a $2000 thin metal tube full of glass into a mount, and then subjecting it to the harmonics of firing a weapon "puts a mount through its paces":

You see all the pictures of shot groups dont you?
