Hello everyone. 

I am from Denmark and english is differently not my best but i will try to formulate my question as best as i can.

I got a few problems with an Eotech flip to side mount for my Eotech Gen1 3x magnifier which was bought i Afghanistan i 2010. Unfortunately the mount is now defect and i am looking for a new one. 

It´s an discontinued model and the mount for the magnifier is not made anymore by Eotech, this is the model:

  


Can you guys help me find a replacement mount which will work with my magnifier? 
And stay in correct alignment with my Eotech Holo? 

I am using it with an Diamaco C8 IUR and Rheinmetall Mg3.

Thank you all for your help. 

Greetings from Denmark.

Lifetime warranty and excellent customer service don't mean a thing when your gun fails during a zombie attack.

I am sure other vendors besides SWFA sell those mounts.  Vortex sells their stuff in Europe.  I just put links so you could see them.

Ok. I´ll give it a chech thnak you very much. 

Do you guys know the height from RIS to the center of the Holosight? 

I have found this one but it is available in 2 different heights. 36 and 42 mm?

36mm is for co-witness, 42mm is for the 1/3 sight hight, so your backupsights are below the centerpoint on your eotech. 

Do you have Irons on your AR?  If so does your eotech co-witness or is it slightly above your irons?
