Just got Gen 4 Mount. Did you have any problems with Gen 4's windage alignment? Meaning, did you have to do constant ajustments with the inner rear locking nut?

[keanematthews]

@APEGASH No, I didn't have that issue. The only difficulty on my scope mount was what I noted in the video clip about needing to re-torque the fore-most screw that attaches the scope mount to the receiver. Best of luck to you!

May I ask how big the gap is on the scope mount rails, the reason I ask is because I would like to get a one piece scope mount to put on it but I'm not sure if the locking mechanisms on it would fit on the gap. Thanks for the video

[keanematthews]

@anubisleader719 I measured the gap between the rails at 2.570 inches (65.28mm) by micrometer.

and how the hell did you get the rifle and the scope for less than 1000 bucks?

[keanematthews]

@bigwillyalex I didn't say I got my rifle and scope for less than $1000. I said that the other user could get a nice rifle but not necessarily an M1A and that scope for less than $1000.

@keanematthews Thank you!

[bigwillyalex]

@keanematthews Ok,lol sorry i misunderstood you but if you could get a deal like that it would be awsome :)

[bigwillyalex]

Is that a standard?

[keanematthews]

@Camiaz88 You could buy a really, really nice rifle AND the SWFA.com SuperSniper 10x42 scope for less than $1000. It's your money. You choose.  Personally, I can't justify to myself spending more on the optics than I spend on the rifle.
