What Mount and Scope can I use to work with My AR 15 Fixed front sight??

I do not think there is enough clearance to use a scope with a fixed site...I can use my one-inch rail mount to sight through if I loose my scope..

You get calculations on line and their are programs you can buy for the type of bullet and powder load. And you can set up targets at certain distances and hit 2 targets at the same time with same bullet about 50 yards apart. Because the doesn't go straight it moves with an arch , it slightky goes up and then back down. Thats what I do to sight it in. But you have to get everything set up right. It takes time , but it's a pretty cool shot to make. The calculations have been done you just have to download program or buy a cd to do it.

By raising the scope you can use a lower power scope, which will allow you to use at short range and still be able to have your iron sights as backup. I would talk to others and maybe take a look at their comments.

From my experience. I tried to co-witness the Hawke Varmint 2.5-10x 44SF using 1 inch UTG Universal Picatinny/Weaver mounting rings and was partially successful. The fixed iron front sight makes a shadow (does not completely block) the image immediately below the center on the scope. Adding the riser (subject of this question) removes the shadow and provides a little more space for cheek planting. As the scope is an inch further from the centerline of the barrel, you will have to play with the scoping in at various distances. Hawke has a great software tool for helping with this called Hawke ChairGun Pro (freebie). I do not know what will work for you, but this is what worked for me. Positive waves. From my experience.

I would use the 1 inch Utg riser 13 slot , so you can mount any scope u want, I would also use weaver mount rings for scope. Sometimes they come with scope. Don't be fooled, Utg mounts are great with great price just make sure everything is torqued properly. I have paid more money for mounts and rings , but the quality is great. I would buy a night force if you have the money. Or I would by sightmark Ezekiel. I have an eotech

To toque the screws buy a fat torgue screwdriver you can get that on Amazon , i think its about 65 lbs of torque, to keep mount scope from loosening. You may want to double check.

You can't go wrong with Nikon monarch . It depends on the range you are shooting. If you haven't bought at yet , I would get a sig 716 . Because you can shoot long or sort distance with it . The tolerances are milled tightly. the quality is amazing with sig manufacturing . You won't regret it

I have an A1 front sight on my BCM AR15 and ordered the med. riser to mount the UTG CQB on. It worked perfectly and the scope is amazing for the price!

If you are referring to the front sight "co-witnessing" through the reticle in your scope, I can't say for certain since my recent build has "NO" iron sights, just a scope. I know this mount is specifically designed for the AR platform to allow what you are talking about. Sorry I couldn't be more help

The best mount I have found is one I believe I purchased from ultimate arms gear,it replaces the rear iron sight.easy to install,just use a small punch to remove the side pin and lift out the rear sight and tension spring.

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 am using that mount with this scope. It's a great combination on an AR.

I use the same scope on my Adams Arms upper and it work s fine. I also put the same setup on my Colt AR and can co- witness the front post with no problem. Hope this hels you.

I don't use the rail, I used the standard Ruger mounts. You don't see the front sight.

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 sight will work on this or any other AR-15 type weapon with the appropriate rail mount system. I purchased this specific sight for the night vision capability and because it uses two AA size batteries not the smaller Lithium type batteries.

I can tell that I used the Barska mount that came with the scope and mounted it just fine on my AR-15 (223) and there was plany room for adjusting it back and forth on top of my AR.

Yes, that's what I have and to be honest send your money on a Larue mount, this one was not good enough for my set up. it would not hold center, I would use this on a .22 that's it. I have a M&P 15 .556, and if your going to spend the money on a Aimpoint, don't go cheap on the magnifier, I hope this helps. Steve

i have mounted a RED Dot Sight and it works perfect for my use, I Haven't install anything else. But i'm almost totally sure that with a red dot is more than you will need.

Yes this will work with an AR15 read reviews, mine was broke when I got it. I think I'm with Red. I don't recommend this scope.

Yes you can. Has rails on top for sights. I use fastfire ( Burris ) You can put on Doktor, EOTech or any type of sight. If you don't want to have a reflex sight, the mount comes with upper rings without a rail.

I actually have mine mounted on one of the magpul scout rail attachments! Good luck! Happy Hunting!

You have a few options. If your wanting to mount a red dot / holographic sight on a rifle in a AR-15 platform. EOTech is one or you can mount it on a slant so you would be rotating your rifle 1/4 turn to see through the Burris fast fire. If your mounting it on a pistol your outta luck trying to use both sights
