Hope someone from Arken reads this. The next iteration, can you remove the nipple on the bottom of the scope? It prevents me from putting my EP5 in a Spuhr or ARC M-Brace. I have the lower height both, ARC lowest is 1.26" and Spuhr is 1.181" both 20moa.

That's the spring plug adjustment that opposes the Elevation and windage axisis. It's a 3 piece design as opposed to the German 5 piece. Don't try and adjust or remove it.
Dremel tool to the mount is your friend! Don't do that to the scope itself though!
