Will this product co-witness with the standard AR 15 front sight?

You will not be able to co-witness the front iron due to the magnification of the ACOG. I would recommend the AimPoint CompM4s if you want the total picture.

I would imagine it would since the military uses it, it is the only site I have on my AR.
1483504
it's a 4x scope - you wouldn't expect to see the front sight at all through it....
1483505
I don't know what "co-witness" means, but the front sight will not interfere with your picture when looking through the ACOG.

My mp15 came with the front mounted iron site. And the scope works fine you can see it kinda through the scope but in no way effets your line of site through the scope. But this is on a M&p; 15. I don't know about other brands.

I don't think so. The 4x magnification will make the front sight post nearly invisible. Co Witness best achieved with an Eotech or similar type of red dot optic with no magnification.

It is at the same height as the iron sight, but because of focus distance, you really don't see the front sight, just a slight shadow. So its not really a co-witness since the front sight isn't visible through the optic.

Not real sure. It fits pretty snug. I assume your talking about a fiber optic front sight? If not oversized from the original then it should fit.

Yes..this front sight is mounted on my gas block, and together equals the same height as a standard m-4 front sight. NOTE: The rail on my gas block is lower than the rail on the receiver, that is why I needed this standard front sight. {they do make a short front sight for full length rails} hope this helps. joe

Yes it can be...it's threaded like any standard AR front sight. I am really happy with them!

Yes, you will be able to co-witness the factory sights. I have an M&P 40 and tried my sights on it. Just order the one with the mounting plates. Very easy to install.

Yes, in that you can run this without impacting the functionality of your fixed front sight. I run this without an elevated riser. The front post does not get in the way and co-witness is achievable with a fixed front sight.

Yes. This is a flat top sight to match F-marked front sights. I have the same configuration.

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 doesn't have the same height as the front sight on my standard mil-spec flat top ar15 front sight. I bought this based on these answers saying it was the correct height but it isn't high enough without buying a 1/2" riser

Depending on the mount you choose, and what iron sights you are using, then yes, it will co-witness...

yeah you can adjust it to co witness with any sight. I have the magpul flip ups and they work great together

On flat top ARs the green dot sits a little bit above the front sight post but not by much. Not one of the fiber optic sights I have used co-witness with front sights.

no, it won't. However, my clone was built without a rear sight and i removed the front sight and replaced it with a low-profile gas block in order to use a longer forearm rail system. didn't need the iron sights as this scope has them built in above the optics. zoom in on the pic and you can see them. these sights are way better, in my opinion, to the iron sights that are usually found on ar's.

Yes it does. Will fit very snug and co witness the original sights. I love it.

Yep that's what I have it on. F mark is the standard front sight. This will be the right height.

I don't think it would. I attempted to put my AR-15 with my Eotech sight attached and it would not fit.

No, because of the magnification the front site disappears. It will not be a problem, if you use a low power scope (1-4) you may be able to co-witness
