Anyone know were you can get this in Canada

The SOCOM II M1A Rifle is a compact, powerful close quarter combat battle rifle. However its "Cluster Rail" system makes it difficult to mount a conventional low powered scope. You have to install an additional receiver mounted scope base to the SOCOM II along with a set of scope rings that are tall enough so that the objective lens clears the top rail. If you want Quick Detach capability, you need to mount your scope on top of the receiver mounted scope base with some type of QD mount and ring combo. We think that's a PIA and has too many interface points that could negatively affect the zero retention of your scope. The New Products Team at GG&G has come up with an innovative solution---The SOCOM II Accucam Quick Detach Scope Mount With 30mm Integral Rings:

• The overall design provides smooth integrated appearance.
• The Accucam Quick Detach System provides quick and easy on-off transitions while maintaining 1/2 MOA accuracy.
• Accucam QD System is fully adjustable to fit worn or out of spec dovetails.
• The SOCOM II Accucam Quick Detach Scope Mount has dual recoil lugs that interface with the recoil slots of the top dovetail rail to provide secure recoil resistance.
• Lightweight skeletonized construction -- 7.7 ozs.
• 6" total length
• 30mm integral rings with four cap screws per ring. Each cap screw threads into stainless steel helicoils.
• 2.5" measurement inside ring face to inside ring face allows for forward/rearward adjustment of different eye releif scopes.
• 1.260" from top of the SOCOM II "Cluster Rail" to center of 30mm integral rings, provides lower scope mounting while still clearing the objective lens of most scopes up to 50mm.
• The cantilever feature of the SOCOM II Scope Base overhangs 3" to allow for additional forward/rearward adjustment for scopes with different eye reliefs.
• The underside of the SOCOM II QD Scope Mount is relief cut for unimpeded cartridge ejection.
• The main body is manufactured from solid billet 6061 T-6 aluminum Type III hard anodized in a non-reflective combat finish per mil-spec.
• All steel components of the Accucam Quick Detach System are manufactured from 4140 ordnance steel and manganese phosphated in a non-reflective combat finish per mil-spec.

Any help would be great as I am looking forward for it to be on my CanAm shorty.

that looks neat. I couldnt find anything on google lol so I gave up. that just doesnt look sturdy to me... I like having the mount attach where the stripper clip guide is personally.

good luck in your search, I bet someone would special order it for you.

It looks a little bit like the ARMS #72, which can be purchased through some of the local sponsors, or on the ARMS website (they ship to Canada).

The A.R.M.S. ® #72Ext-LII mount 5.56 Cal. features a built in harmonic spring dampener system that significantly reduces damaging shock waves, allowing sensitive electro/optic aiming devices to better survive, high volume firing on all caliber man portable and crew served weaponry

The #72Ext. mount also includes the new MK ll Levers featuring a built in precision adjustment wheel allowing finger tip (no tool) selection to desired tension to fit variations in 1913 mil-standard dimensions. The mounts adjustment wheel comes pre-gauged and locked to the center of the mil std. dovetail specs. The hash marks to the left or right of the adjustment wheels white marked indicator line, represent .002.

I'm hoping Armtac, the new Vltor distributor, brings in the new non Springfield cluster rails. They go all the way back to stripper clip guide dovetail. Gives you the mounting options of the Troy Battle Rail without losing your rear sights

I had the #72 awndray. Although it did not allow the optic to sit that far back. So my relief was all screwed up. But great idea though & thanx.

Good call!
Time to bug Chris @ Armtac

LRB has a pretty good solution too.

I had been looking at this Vortex mount for the same application.
