Is this mount tall enough to mount a 50mm scope on an AR15?

Yes. This is a perfect height for an AR scope, an you won't have any issues with the larger 50mm scope Diameter. When I mounted my weaver 1x3 it was amazingly accurate before zeroing.

I have 40mm on rail with this mount on AR. Front of scope has 15 mm clearance from bottom of scope to forearm, at the back end, 4 mm clearance between the variable adjusting knob and flip up peep hole site in the down position .

Yes, scope weight will allow it to work. It will be an Altazimuth mounting, should work ok!

You may have noticed that the UTG Medium Profile Riser Mount with 3 slots was listed along with this sight and that mount is generally good to co-witness your AR-15 iron sights. I have had to also use the Low Profile version on some guns but Medium should be fine.

Andrew, I have a 40mm Nikon Rimfire scope with medium rings and it just barely clears the barrel and Ruger sight. As Antonio R stated, you will likely need high rings for 50mm objective.

This mount will fit the whisper however a 50 mm objective may be too large and may contact the top of the receiver .

I have mine also mounted on a zero rail (700 rem) but im using 44mm objective scope. I still have about 10 mm space between the scope and the barrel. So, i think the 50mm scope should fit, which would put you as close as you can to the barrel.

I run it with a T-1 on one rifle and with a Larue SPR mount with a leupold mk ar mod1, with no issues, don't know the height, slightly, slightly higher than My magpul pro sights

That depends on bell diameter of the scope. These rings are an inch high, meaning the bottom of the main scope tube will sit 1" above the rail. And the middle of the scope (line of sight) will be 1 1/2" off the rail. The end of the scope, called the bell, (closer to the muzzle) sometimes is bigger than the diameter of the scope body, the bell for these 1" rings cannot exceed 50mm or it won't fit on the rail.I hope that makes sense and answered your questions...

No, factory mount is low, you need an AR co-witness height mount. I like american defense mounts, larue tends to dig into the sides of your rail.

I've used it on a center point 3-9x40 scope the bottom clearance between barrel and scope should accept 50mm scope with no problem. Note mount length is 4 3/4" and length between the rings is 3" Jack

This information is from the Vortex site: Use this cantilever mount for mounting 30 mm telescopic sights onto flattop style AR-15 rifles. The 2-inch offset of this cantilever mount positions the scope in a forward location, allowing the correct eye relief and head placement on an AR-15. Aluminum construction. Note The cantilever ring mount positions the center of the rifle scope tube at a height of 1.59 inches (40.39 mm) from the base. Weighs 6.7 ounces. Hope this helps!

My scope mount like this one is mounted on a .22 rifle which has a dovetail groove style mount. I have only a 40 mm scope with plenty of room. If your mount is similar to mine I would say your 50mm would have a 1/4" clearance. Hope this might help.

I have several of these scopes. I have consistently used American Defense Recon S scope mounts for use on my AR15's and 308 AR's...height allows for MBUS rear sight.

I don't have a 50mm but a 44 I have has plenty of room on my AR15 (almost 3/8").

Yes if you are talking about the A2 handle on a an AR15 the front site is too close to be seen by the scope. The mount will give you more than enough height from the top of the A2 handle. hope this helps.
