they are the best - go to the website and read - its obvious
I'm seeing new items at fabsport.ca, including a sadlak alluminum scope mount, does anyone have feedback about it? how does it do against the arms #18?
obviously i'd accept your feedback fabrice but your opinion is biased

I have decided to order this unit anyhow, turns out it looks a very decent mount, it came with purple loctite and extensive instructions, it even includes a hand written quality control sheet and 2 measuring pins used to correctly measure the specs of the mount. I will be installing it ina few weeks, I really have low to no time for gunsmithing these times
My only concern would be the weight, it is pretty light

The Sadlak mount looks just like the Smith #2024 (older model)
Should be a solid mount. Take your time and diy.
Be careful with the troque on the hex bolt. Easy to strip
If you don't have a inch-lb troque wrench. (65-70 in-lbs)
You can use a ft-lb troque wrench....but set to 5 to 6 ft-lbs only.
As for the weight of the mount. I would not worry.
Good three point contact.
I have no problems with my Smith mount.

Holding great!
As sadlak's website says: it's the best on the market
Only problem would be it's aluminum, maybe not as solid as steel, but as Mike Sadlak mentioned when I talked to him: the only concern would be thermal expension, other than that, it's aircraft grade alluminum, so If installed properly they are the best.

I'm not sure but I don't think that aluminum is the best material for making a mount for the M1A. Looking at the web link it look's like an EXACT copy of a Smith mount. I may be wrong though. Looks like they want $150 us for it, for an extra $50 you might as well just get the Smith of an ARMS. Just my .02 cents
Let us know how it works out...

WELLLLLL steel might be of better build but I don't think bench shooting is your typical hardcore, steel-mount requiring situation
If the mount loses zero, you'll know about me
until then, I've heard nothing like "sadlak allum is bad, you will die"
