Matrix Full Metal Scope Mount Base for M14 Series Airsoft AEG Rifles

"I received the Matrix Full Metal Scope Mount Base for M14 Series Airsoft AEG Rifle today and was (not really) surprised to find it was packaged in a CYMA box. It was a simple, small box with a diagram and instructions of how to install the mount onto your gun with a graphic of a socom m14.

I have the 6mm ProShop "Sage International" M14 EBR and this mount did not fit 100% correctly, to my disappointment. The rear portion of the scope mount will fit, but the front screw that screws into the M14's actual body will not fit. The screw size is just one size too large. I even sanded the screw down to get rid of some of the paint on the threads hoping it would fit- it will not.

The quality is what you expect- cheaper pot metal, painted with a decent coat of matte black. It's not the highest quality but it is a good bang for your buck.

I give it a 4/5 as it doesn't fit the 6mm M14 EBR, but I figure it's more of 6mm ProShop's fault for that.

"16 Bucks well spent. Doesn't move and sits the scope over the center of the m14. Very sturdy mount and holds very well. No need so far for thread lock as well.
I put mine on a GnG m14 with the plastic stock

"For $16 i cant complain. Very secure and absolutely no wobble what so ever on my echo1 m14. However it sits kinda high above the bolt which is both a pro and con. Pro cause you can still use your irons. Con cause my cheek isn't in contact with the stock when im aiming down a scope or really anything i have on the mount. This could just be me cause i have no meat on my face just skin and bones. You can easily fix this my making or buy a cheek riser. Otherwise a very good scope mount. n.

"It works, but was a pain to install and adjust.
2 issues:

-First, the small block that mounts in front of the rear iron sight needs to be centered for the scope rail to be straight in line with your barrel. If you just slied it in all the way to the stop, it's likely not going to be straight. In my CYMA M-14, this required a few times guessing and readjusting.

-Second, the large thumb screws are very soft aluminum, and the threads did not match up with my gun. So the front one needed to be replaced with a steel allen bolt from the hardware store. And the rear fits in the supplied block, but seems to be stripping out as I tighten it. Likely will replace it with another steel bolt.

But, it's on now and scope is sighted in fine.
I do like how it has a channel underneath that lets you look down the irons for backup sight.

"I got this tactical rail for my Cyam M14 and It fit the platform perfectly, but the only complaint that I have is that there is no guide or piece of paper that shows you how to install the piece. The screws that go into the sides have a tight fit and have a tendency to strip when you screw them in, one of my screws completely stripped and wouldn't go into the port and so I had to make my own screw to hold the rail in place.
