    Yeah just sold my Eotech and Magnifier for about that and the same fees too @dogmatix
    @Burb122 you could use the Acog on a few different things. The AR-22 rifles such as the Kriss or S&W 15-22, a centrefire Troy PAR (if you can find one and then if you can hold onto it as I think they will be banned) or something different like those 22mag Excel Arms Accelerators 55six sells. All those rifles will work with an Acog eye relief.

    Me personally I would try and sell it and cut your losses like I did with my Eotech and Magnifier, a collector may want it for the right price.

    Troy PAR

    S&W MP15 22

    Kriss DMK

    Hammerli TAC R1/Walther "HK 416"

    10/22 in some sort of Chassis

    Leave it in the cupboard because they're not worth selling

    Those are the current options as I see it

    Tried to, no takers.

    Also as Beavis said, I tried it on a 10/22 chassis, but needed a 5cm cheek riser to be usable, so cut my losses.

    It was but it's not hard to figure out what the hash marks equate to for other calibres and go from there. The biggest sticking point is the height of the mount. A chassis or other ajustable height stock might be an option.
