Questions & Answers
What diameter battel will this clamp on to? Expert Answer

The GG&G M1A Scout Scope Mount is designed for use with the M1A Scout Squad and SOCOM rifles. The manufacturer does not state what barrel diameter the GG&G M1A Scout Scope Mount is specifically compatible with. For that information I recommend contacting the manufacturer.

What diameter barrel is this intended to fit optimally? Expert Answer

The GG&G M1A Scout Scope Mount is specifically intended for the Springfield M1A "Scout Squad" or "SOCOM 16", with cutout factory top handguard. The manufacturer does not list a specific barrel diameter the GG&G M1A Scout Scope Mount will work with, GG&G just states that the two models above are the only compatible models.

GG&G M1A Mount by Gator, January 20, 2018
This mount is well made and a vast improvement over the factory mount. I bought this mount to put a MRO on my rifle and wanted it centered as much as possible. This mount also gets your optic further from the barrel and the heat it generates. Well...

The Perfect Alternative by DLB, Verified Owner, July 18, 2016
So far, I've got no complaints about this item what so ever. After looking at $200-400 side mounts, and equally expensive extended mounts, I figured for the price I would give this product a try. It does exactly what I need it to, pushing back my sco...
