DLO Live! Ep. 70 Riflescopes + Clip-ons

Streamed on:
98

Every once in a while I get a question on matching riflescopes with thermal clip-ons. Since I am travelling this week, I figured we can go over that for a bit. There are also a couple of remaining questions from last week's livestream that I want to address (as promised).
To forewarn the most obvious question on whether I have specific recommendations on which scopes work best with thermal clip-ons....
LPVOs and low power prismatics were excellently with clip-ons.
If you are looking for something that will fit on a flat top without touching the handguard (like in the thumbnail image), your best bet is Burris' Gen2 clip-on with a rear-biased picatinny mount and a 3x Microprism like in this package: https://alnk.to/d3CIdJz
If you are OK with the thermal clip-on sitting on the handguard (probably the most common configuration), I have found SAI6 1-6x24 with mrad reticle to be an excellent optic to put behind a clip-on: https://alnk.to/aAO6ulr
That's what I have on my 458SOCOM.
