will this raise a 40mm scope high enough to clear collapsible iron sights?

Yes, it clears perfectly on an AR15. the front sight is still in the scope view, but so close that it's not visible. The rear iron sight should be folded for proper use. Worked great on my 1" scope

I don't think so besides the scope mount is too solid on the base for you to see through anyway. There are some that are "see through" but I could not tell you the brand. I bought this mount to raise up the scope so could get the butt stock down onto my shoulder where is should be. It works perfectly for that application. Nice mount

It should, I have a fixed ( A2 ) front sight and I have no problem with this mount. I use a nikon prostaff 2x7 with this mount for coyote hunting in VA. Hope this helps.

Yes this worked great to clear the collapsible sights on my AR-15 Sport model for a 3-9 X 40 Nikon scope. You have to remove this mount to use the fixed sights, but this gets the scope high enough off the rifle to clear and mount the scope. The front sight is in the view field, but is so close that you don't see it at all.

I think it would depend on the scope. I bought this to put on my AR to raise my Eotech 512 over the front sights. It didn't work because the Eotech has a large fastening knob on the side which got in the way of the riser. I ended up having to go with the medium profile riser which worked well. Hope this helped.

I'm not sure. You may be able to use iron sites viewing right through the glass on the scope. I put a regular crosshair scope on an AR and had to use a riser but that's a totally different animal. Sorry I can't be of more help.

I had to use a half inch riser, and I mounted my flip up rear sight to co witness with my 30mm dot sight. It does screw up the iron sights when the rear sight is raised that half an inch.

if not you can put 1" riser blocks under Neath the see thru mounts that is the way I did it on my smith & Wesson p22 I have the laser under Neath my barrel and a big scope on top and can see my iron sights with no problem so if it don't work just with the scope mounts you can but 1" riser monts form Amazon and I know that worked for me

It depend if you have a high front sight and to fix that you need to have a riser 1/2" or 3/4" depend on your preference.

This Riser will make it a 'lower 1/3', it is probably not a 'Absolute co-witness'. I have a red dot scope mounted on this riser and I can not see my (G36)sights through my scope.

It is a one inch tube so it will work. High rings are higher than they need to be for a 40mm objective but it will work.

Depends on your back up iron sights. Diffrent heights require different mounts. My flip up soghts needed the cantilever mount in order for the sight to be cowitness

It should as long as you stay at or under a 40mm objective. I have taken this mount on and off several times and it holds zero great. If this is too low you can alwayse get a riser block. If you mount this strait to the reciver (as i did ) it is low but i love it

It may. At the worst scenario, you might need to make minor adjustments on the front sight's opening.

I dont believe it is high enough this sight's front post tip sits about 1 3/4 from my rail you might have to use a rail riser

Depends a lot on the height of the scope rings you use. Generally the medium riser is sufficient, assuming you have a standard rail on your rifle.

Will work with the 50mm (tall enough for the objective) however, the larger the objective, the less view of the iron sights.

whether or not it works depends on how big your lens measures on your scope I tried using this on a 4-16x44mm scope and it did not raise the scope high enough to clear the rail. might for a 40mm scope though. hope this helps

if your scope has 40 objective lens i feel the 1" mount will be to high it needs to be as close to the barrel as possible for beter adjustment from scope to barrel sighting for point of impact.

Should be fine... its the height of the scope that has the clearance problem. I use a 1" riser
