^ LaRue LT755 pivot mount FTW (short for XPS, tall for EXPS)
Love mine
Wish I hadn't tried to "cheap out" by starting with a cheap mount.
You get what you pay for - except when you buy cheap hardware. Then you pretty much get nothing but an emptier wallet.

Noncentsical and FS2KSTD, you guys are right. And I have seen plenty of posts with buyers remorse on this forum, should have known better. I figure I got off lucky, will only be out a few dollars for shipping and a little less range time with my Sig before I have to go back to work.

Seriously, check out my link with the mount above somewhere. It has numerous adjustments to put the xps reticle right in the middle. It seems real sturdy and clamped down real nicely on my Burris magnifier. I am in the process of ordering a second one. Mine came from the gun show, but this looks 100% the same, not 99% but 100%![]()

You see in this world there's two kinds of people my friend. Those with loaded guns, and those who dig. You dig?
I got the La Rue mount Wed and mounted it and the Burris Wed afternoon.

And of course lots of free goodies from La Rue, wanted to attach a photo but guess five is the limit. Like others have posted it was some bumper stickers ("God bless our troops, especially our snipers" is my favorite, the dillo dust, DVD, beverage entry tool and some other stuff. I really like the La Rue mount and can see such a huge difference between this mount and the POS I got from sun optics. Have to say Natchez was great, took the Sun optic mount back and returned my money, no questions asked. Took my Sig 522 to the range Thursday and had a great time. Very happy with the Burris Tripler and the La Rue mount. With my bad eyesight it's nice to be able to see downrange right away where I am hitting. I am having some trouble centering the laser dot in the Burris Tripler, I may need a riser for either the true glow or the La Rue mount. Again very happy with both purchases. So is the La Rue and Burris overkill for my Sig 522? Yes, but someday when I can buy a SCAR they will migrate over along with a new laser sight (True Glow is okay but not worthy of the SCAR IMHO).
So if MP can confirm that he was able to get another mount from that one website and he is happy with it I think the forum members have at least two good choices for mounts depending on what you want to spend.
In summary:
Burris Tripler: awesome, well worth the money, especially if you get the deal from Natchez. +1
Natchez: Great deal they are running and handle returns with no issues. Will get my business again. +1
La Rue: Very impressed with their mount. Yes their are pricey but well worth it. Love the extra goodies, I knew they did this but had only seen it with guys dropping $700-$1000 on optics and mounts. Didn't think my $150 mount would warrant such treatment. They have a customer for life now. +1
MP have to thank you again for spotting this deal and sharing it.
