Is the sandbag on top removable so I can attach a spotting scope to the base?

Yes, the sandbag and the cradle ARE removable, and a 1/4 x 5/16 stud is protruding from the base, I've used it for a camera tripod, spotting scope, and I'm sure you can use it with anything that has a 1/4 " female mounting thread, I don't know what Frank is talking about, but I love this thing! It's better than two other tripods that I have that are more expensive. For the price, this thing is great, GET ONE !

Yes If you remove whole upper post and replace it with spotting scope mounted to a tube of approximately 1" (I forget exact dimension. Could attach scope to the pad also but not very stable so advice just using the tripod bottom if you go with this. Not my personal choice for this use.

No, there is just the scope. The gun also doesn't come with the scope attached so you'll also have to sight it in.

Yes the finder scope removable however, in order to attach a better finder scope you will need to drill two holes in the optical tube either that or make a custom bracket to fit on the rings..

I have the same exact gun. The answer is yes and no. You can leave the front one on and it will not appear in your scopes view, but the back sight needs to come off, but getting it off is a piece of cake.

Yes but you have to remove the "V" first. I got a cheap extra tripod that I leave my spotting scope attached to.

It has the screw whole in the bottom. I used the same attachment for my spotting scope tripod which was a quick release. It is light so any decent tripod should work fine. Just watch out in high winds.

Yes. There are fasteners under the base that allow the base to be removed and the optic to then be mounted above the A2 charging handle. The sight line may be WAY too high with it mounted that way and EVERY one of these I have seen has a crooked reticle.

yes i actually took the mount off and order scope rings for it. The mount is a piece of crap

sorry for the delayed reply , had to pull it out of the closet and examine it.yes the attached "v"yoke is removable , I use mine for laser bore sighting rifle scopesand it works fantastic , easy to set up , light but well constructed.it will support ans stabalize a 30.06 deer rifle hunting from a blind.hope this helps....

You can. The mount comes with two smooth and two railed upper segments which would allow for attaching. Reflex or red dot sight on top. While this is certainly a popular option, I found it didn't work well because the resulting height over bore was too high to be useful at close range and it was awkward shooting from position.

Yes. Table Top Tripod. Mounting screw on scope bottom is standard so can use with camera tripods, etc etc. Good value as spotting scope for shooting out to around 500 meters

Yes, the mounts are easily removable.I am quite happy with my Burris ff3. I actually purchased a second, of the same ff3, for my AR-15.The first, is on my 10-22.They are very small/low profile. All metal. Also, everything can be adjusted and batteries replaced, without removing the site.I am happy with both of my ff3s.

Underneath the scope is a permanent mount which is screwed onto the rails. So yes, you can remove two screws and remove the rail but not sure how you would mount it. If you can find a close up of the front of the scope you can see the shape part which is permanent. Not sure I helped...

No it can not be removed form the base. However there are carry handle mounts for about $8 that will allow you to mount this onto the carry handle.

No, its attached but we had no problems with it poking and it stores in the bag for easy deployment

Yes. Bought this for my husband last year and it works with the standard baseplate for spotting scopes.
