has anyone used the 'integrated peep sight' that supposedly allows you to use the rifle's iron sights besides the scope?

Yes! I was at the range yesterday and that's actually one of the best ways to zero in the scope. Hold the AR rifle steady on a sandbag or whatever , aim at the target say 100 yards using the peep sight ,you then set your cross hair on that target....that easy, works for me. Oh and the mildot ?

Yes. there is not a whole lot of room to see ,but there is just enough for you to use.

You can see through the iron sights as well by looking under the scope. Which is fine, but this scope is a hunk of crap. Spend in between 100 and 200 and get a sight that will actually stay zeroed.

This is a great rifle, but no, no iron sights. Im Sure you could still use it.

Yes I have that setup and like it. However you cannot access the sight adjustment lock screws on the sight when it is mounted with the supplied hex wrench. I had to leave the lock scews loose, mount the sight and sight it in, then take the sight off lock the screws and the remount the sight. If I had a wrech with a shorter arm I could lossen and tightent the lock screws while the scope is mounted.

No....look up the sights for that gun. I have one too. Requires a different sight.

I was able to get mine to work with the iron sight on the Hi-Point, but my buddy had to take his iron sight off!

unsure tom, but i have a see thru mount to allow a scope and iron sights at the same time, they work well set at 50yds for me with it, and i imagine the clearances would be the same for you. i would suggest a different mount personally.

I was able to use the standard sighting tool without any issues. I purchased this too from amazon as well. We appear to have purchased identical sights so the standard sighting tool should work.

You can mount a red dot sight on there. That's what I have done. I love the fact that I can still use the iron sights if needed.

I had no issue seeing the iron sights, so I don't see why you would need to modify the stock in anyway except to accommodate for a scope mount, which I just used a dremel to cut a small groove in the side.

Yes, you can use your Iron sights. No problem here. I love the mount, rock solid! "When you follow the instructions and it's mounted properly."

You can see through the scope using flip up sights I know, that's how I have my AR set up

If you swing the G33 over, the rear site can be rotated into position. Then the iron sights can be used looking thru the 1X Eotech....called cowitness.

Yes. It is not magnified so you can look straight through the optic and use iron sights in the even of battery failure. Flip up sights are recommended so they do not obstruct normal use of the Micro Sight.

On my AR I do not have Iron sights but you can see through under the riser though I do not think there is enough room to see Iron sites, Sorry Bob

Short answer: yes. Longer answer: the scope doesn't attach to the stock, it attaches to the barrel itself. ATI makes a scope mounting kit that makes this look like a nice hunting rifle. However if you buy their scope kit, you have to get a bent bolt kit as well. Or your other option is to look for "Scout style" scopes or Long Eye Relief Scopes. You will have to do some modifying, but basically a rail mount will replace your rear iron sights and the scope can be attached to that.
