B&T FNC mount question

[coolhand]

Does anyone know the value of new Swiss made B&T FNC picatinny rail mount / Part# 21178?
It has been a while and could not figure out the current value...
I guess this is the one used by the Military.
Thanks in advance.

My guess would be something less than the better designed, more popular Stormwerkz rail ($80). http://stormwerkz.com/scope-mounts/fn-fnc-scope-mount/ I don't know of any military that used the B&T, just the FN factory quick release mount. Not being able to use the iron sights when installed, they quickly lost popularity to the Stormwerkz design, which does not block the irons. Once upon a time, they went for $120 - $130 new, but that was when they were one of the only options around.

Ask Stormwerkz where he got his "inspiration" from to his design :angel

Josh's mount is actually an improvement on the B&T mount. Plus his fast shipping of orders and customer service make doing business with him a pleasure. One of the few places you could get the B&T mount back in the day was DSArms. The mounts were constantly backordered. DSArms was one of my LEAST favorite places from which to order anything. Your experience may have been different with DSArms.

Another +1 for the Stormwerkz. I have one on my FNC, and love it.
