I have an AR15 with a military type front sight and a flat top receiver w/ picatinny rail. Will the front sight be seen in scope ?

It works okay. Not as great as I expected. Spend alittle more and get a Nikon P223 with Nikon scope mounts

I have 45 degree angle sights on my ar15 with this scope. But for the money this is a great buy and a great scope!

No I dont have any problems with my front sight being in the way of the field of vision through the scope

It might show in the scope. The rings are pretty low. I'm running 45 degree offset irons to avoid the chance. You could run the scope with a taller ring though if it became a problem.

I have not had any interference with the standard post front sight using this scope. I have the perp mount which help keep sight picture right in line

I don't have a front sight on mine. It shouldn't if the front sight flips down. I love this scope.

I'm not 100% sure as mine doesn't have a front sight. I removed it for a 12" handguard. It does raise the scope to a natural comfortable shooting height for me though.

Yes that's the front sight I have. It lines up perfect. I didn't even have to sight it in.

Not at all--if you want high mount rings to also use your open sights you will need Wide View WSM-EHOP scope rings--if you use the Accushot 1" Weaver high mount rings that will fasten to the scope base that came with the rifle you can not see the rear sight because of the scope base--the Wide View fasten directly to the top of the 10/22 receiver WITH OUT the base--this will let you both a scope & open sights--even a scope with a 40mm front objective clears the rear sight--works great

It's not as easy as if you had an actual ar15 front sight block but it will work. You will need a big hammer and a steady hand. Also remember its a tapered pin so be sure to check which side is smaller and knock it out from that side. Also putting a piece of 2x4 under the receiver will help steady the gun.

No, but none of the others will either. The crosshairs will be all you see from 3x and up. Only on low power will you even see the front sight. Now you may get lucky like I did, when my scope is on low power (1x to 2.5x) I can see and use the front sight post, but this is a freak bit of luck, but not guarenteed. I say get it anyway, if you feel it's too low you can buy an inexpensive riser

Yes, the rear sight will line up properly with an A2 front sight post on your set up. Even though I have these sights on a 15-22, I tested the rear sight on my AR15 (M&P15X; - has the fixed A2 front sight post) in order to answer this question.

If you are mounting this front flip up sight on a (flat top weaver rail) it will be perfect for a rear sight such as a (carry handle rear sight). It measures 1-1/2" from the top of the weaver rail to the very top of the overall sight, wich is above the sight post that you will use for sighting in your weapon. I have this flip up sight on my flat top(ar15) and it works great. I have a carry handle rear sight, and a flip up (low profile) front utg sight. IF you are getting this sight to flip down so you can use optics you'll be fine. Be careful because... utg also makes a flip up sight that is not a (LOW). It all depends on the rear sight. Good luck!

this Front Sight will only work if you have a Full Leanth Quad Rail on your AR-15 rifle.or if you have a Standard Heighth Picatany Gas Block.but the answer to your Question. any Rear sight will work with this front sight. just as long you put it on the standard Gas block or the quad rail. if you put this sight on the low pro gas block it wont work with any rear sight.

It might mount but the scope would not be high enough to properly align with your eye. On flat top AR's you need higher rings so that with a proper cheek weld on the straight AR stock your eye is behind the scope. Normal rifle stocks have some drop in the stock...AR's do not.

The sight sits kinda high above your rail, so yes, you should be fine. Mine has a flat front gas book and so front sights would not be an issue for me. It may be visible if you have a raised front gas block, but should not obstruct your crosshairs.

as long as you have a rail system you should be fine. the sight can definitely handle any recoil if that's what your asking?...yes it will work with a fixed front sight. I have this on the rear of my ar-15 because its just a backup sight with fixed front sights and a red dot that I usually use. hope that helps.

Sorry I am so long answering this. I do not see how this is possible... not unless the front sight is also rail mounted, elevation equipped, and the correct height to match the rear unit in question.This sight is specifically designed for the AR-15/M-4 platform and IS NOT ELEVATION ADJUSTABLE. There are so many better options than this... keep on looking.

Yes, I mounted a 3x9 scope on a M&P; Sport and don't notice the front sight.

depends on your rings that you use. that will determine whether the scope will hit the rear gun sight.
