   On an unrelated note. I'd be real hard-pressed buy another lpvo.
   
   They're just too heavy for what they are. I left mine on 1x all the time anyways. If it wasn't 1x it was maxed out.
   
   Why not just get a 4x-12x if youre building a dedicated distance rifle? It'll be waaay better.

     @Rocc @glow I have one Reptilia product, which is an RMR-to-RMR plate. True story.

     @glow@blob.cat I'd be curious to hear what you go with.
     
     you should check out reptilia's mounts if you don't already know about them. They make it easy to mount a dot on top in whatever position you prefer. That's a have to have kinda thing to me

     @Rocc I need an lPVO because I need a rifle that "does everything" for my post-apocalypse LARP fantasy. I mean this sincerely.

     @gat@mu.zaitcev.nu @Rocc@misskey.bubbletea.dev @glow@blob.cat this is kind of interesting, didn't realize that product was so popular but it seems pretty utilitarian, better than le meme scalarwerks mounte

     I built a Glock 19 using a Brownells brand slide, native milled for RMR. I bought somewhat tall sights for it. Not super tall, but taller than normal. But the RMR sits so deep on that slide that sights obscured a good half of the lens, The RMR-to-RMR plate lifts the sight just enough so that I can see the dot with something like lower 1/4 to 1/3 co-witness.
     
     Reptilia intended that plate for some weird-ass shotgun application. It even had recoil pegs. And apparently it was so popular that they make a whole array of them in various colors and thicknesses:
     https://reptiliacorp.com/product/rof-riser-for-trijicon-rmr/
     
     Today I would just print a little plate from Nyon, perhaps with a little spacer that transfers the recoil instead of the pegs. But that was then.
