Rezarf Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 So I recently purchased a Mesa tactical side saddle for my M1, but it is the integrated rail/shell carrier made for the M4. Why you ask? Because my M1 receiver was already tapped to accept the M4 accessory. I got a great deal on the carrier, but once I installed it... I realized it was now blocking my rifle sights. So my dilemma begins, I could run a red dot like the Micro T1, I use a clone on my AR and have had zero issues. But I am leary of the shotgun recoil verses the AR's when it comes to longevity. Or, I can just resell this side saddle and buy the option that retains the rifle sights. Opinions? thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

younggun83 Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 If you do sell it let me know please. I just got a M1 but dont have a Rear Sight. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hookster Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 (edited) ... not enough beans in the jar for the M4. thanks skeeter! Quick!!!....Get more beans!!!! Like Tucker is indicating, I'd sell it and get the right one for your sights. If you hang both a side saddle and red dot on the M1S90 you may run into cycling problems due to the extra weight.
