About how tall is this scope from the center of the lens to the mounting rail? I'm looking at this magnifier, (this one, by the way: Tactical Airsoft 3X Magnifier Scope Sight with Flip To Side 20mm Rail Mount ) And I was wondering if It'd work.

Sorry Cale, I did not have it long enough to take measurements. It was missing the rail clamp and I returned it for credit the same day I recd. it.

Three on a big one( stock 10/22) sixish on small ones. It's alright but unless you need it offset, don't get it. Get a different one. I bought mine for my 50mm objective scope and it was hell to set up right. It will mount with your muzzle being to the left of the picture. Not the other way. Not for me at least.

Ade Advanced Optics Quick Flip to Side 90 Degree 30mm/1 Inch... Sold by: sportswarehouse This is by far the best mount for this magnifier. It's inexpensive but actually it's very good quality . I use this mount and magnifier with my eotech holographic sight and I love this set up.

That will depend on your scope more than the mount. If its a lower powered scope, you will see the front sight in the lower half of the optic. I use a Nikon 3-9 and it doesn't show up in the objective at all. On my other rifle that I use this mount on I have a Burris 1-4 power and on the lower setting my front sight is view-able.

my scope has a 28 mm objective lens, but my eyepiece lens has an outside diameter of 41mm, so I had to go with medium height mounts to have enough clearance on my Ruger scout rifle picatinny rail. Also, the eyepiece lens cap is just thick enough that it won't clear the rail unless I pull it back just enough that it doesn't touch the rear of the rail. I hope that helps.

Cannot say. All these things say they are the perfect height-right alignment yadda yadda, but experience tells me no. The included mount co-witnessed perfectly wiith the Eotech and A2 front sight, but not with the Bushnell trophy TRS 25 and flip ups that I switched to. All of which are supposed to be the same height. If it doesn't work, send it back, but its a great little magnifier non the less.

Great that you have a M1 Garand! These rifles were not originally designed for scope mounting although I'm sure you can find an aftermarket mount designed for them. This rail is not that. This rail converts a narrow 3/8" scope rail typically used on .22 and air rifles and coverts it to the wider Picatinny/Weaver style in case you have optics, laser etc. who's mounts are sized for that.

I mounted an LER scope that came with rings. I imagine that any rings that attach to a Picatinny rail will do. I never had an issue with scope height because the Archangel stock has an adjustable cheek rest. I also used a laser boresight before ever trying the rifle on the range. With a few adjustments on the range I was able to get around 1-2 MOA at 100 yards in less than 50 rounds.

I believe the scope rings on the scope may not fit. However that is an easy fix by purchasing scope mounts for air rifles. As for the second question the scope hold up perfectly fine nothing wrong with it. It's a good quality scope you should have not problems for what you use it for. ( I use my scope on an airsoft rifle which I run around, drop, smack against cover, etc.) and it's holds up just like I first baught it.

Not sure how your mounts are, but the scope has a large front end, so on my 243 i had to buy a Set of taller mounts, the scope for me was an excellent purchase i wont another Brand, it was also very easy to sight in. I think it is a great all around investment. I hope my answer helps

My scope (nikon 4-12x40 BDC) sits high enough using the SPR for the magpul folding rear sight to be folded under it (no way or reason to flip it up with the scope mounted). I typically mount the scope before I go to the range and take it off (love the thumbnuts) when I leave, and rely on the flip-ups for home defense. The front of my 40mm scope sits just above the magpul rail covers (ladders), maybe 1/4" gap. I also have a IWC QD mount on my top rail just in front of the cantilever portion of the mount.

I'm not sure, other than height differences, perhaps. There is no adjustment to center the reticle in the magnifier (I have a 6x that has adjustment), so if your aimpoint is higher or lower thaan eotech (mine is 517), you may not be able to get the reticle in view. worth a try though, you can always return it. It's long as well, so depending on how many slots you have available, you may have to buy extensions to fit your rds and this magnifier. I had to. 517 was on the furthest slot (armalite) and I still couldn't get the scope behind it on the other end of the rail. Bought two 12 slot 1/2" risers and gave myself more slots.

The sight sits right on Picatinny. Measured from top of rail to center of magnifier lense is roughly 1 9/16". Hope that helps

Your question is a bit confusing. I think what you are asking is "What is the distance between the "rings" that secure the scope to the M223 scope mount?" That distance is 3.25 inches and is ample for scope adjustment forward and backward to get proper eye relief; UNLESS you have one of those scopes with a box shaped center portion of the tube where the windage and elevation knobs attach. If you have one of those type scopes, (such as the AIM Sports shown at http://www.sportsmansguide.com/net/cb/aim-sports-10-40x56-mm-extreme-tactical-scope.aspx?a=941344) you will need a two piece mount as shown on that hyperlink. The M223 will not work - at least it didn't for me. My solution was to return the AIM Sport and get a different scope that did not have the boxy shaped center. I bought the Nikon M223 scope (in 3X - 12X and 4X - 16X). Both fit the mount and are great scopes.

John, to the best of my understanding (and I'm no expert) this is a 2nd focal plane scope. The reticle does not change size as magnification changes. If that isn't an issue for you I can assure you this is a fine optic. I've put hundreds of rounds through my Varminter (AR platform) using varying magnifications and I love the way this scope performs. Just one enthusiast's opinion.

This is not a sight, it is a magnifier. It does not have elevation. You place it between your eye and the red-dot/holo/reflex sight and it will magnify the target for you. If you want my opinion, this is the best one for the money hands down. I have had over a dozen of these from different brands over the past few years and this particular one is my favorite. It's not perfect, but it's by far the best one under 200$ that I've found. I have not tried the Vortex magnifier yet, and I hear good things, but it's also 230$ or so... for 100$, get the TMS.

Impossible to answer as you don't give enough information. The scope has nothing what so ever to do with ring or mount height. Need to know what rifle it is going on.
