Yes, the IR illuminator could be installed either above the scope or below the barrel. Above the scope was the preferred mode for the Man From U.N.C.L.E. THRUSH Rifles, which were a direct takeoff from the M3.

Uh, Doug - You know The Man From UNCLE wasn't real, right??? Robert Vaughn wasn't really a secret agent.

I sort of remember that episode...About finding a dead scuba diver in a grain silo in Kansas, or something like that...

I dunno...It sounded as logical as most stuff that comes my way...
