Will this magnifier work with the truglo trubrite open red dot optic or will I need a riser for it to work properly

Brett, Im not sure, however, if I had to guess I would say you will need a riser. I would suggest you investigate it some more.

It depends on how high up your red dot optic is above the rail. You can easily get a riser rail for a few bucks if it doesn't.

The sight sits right on Picatinny. Measured from top of rail to center of magnifier lense is roughly 1 9/16". Hope that helps

I am not familiar with the red dot optic you are wanting to use... but will make a small suggestion, consider a 3x magnifier they are much more popular - and that is the only magnification that EoTech uses... just something to think about...

Not sure about the StrikeFire, but the Sparc will. It comes with 3 different risers. 2 of which are a direct attachment. The third is to raise the other 2 (they both are different heights) if they are are to short. Also know that the Sparc had a smaller MOA red dot and comes with a screw in 2x magnifier.

I have these sights with a red dot with a 1 inch riser and they work "ok" I wouldnt rely on them being perfect but it's one of those things, "you get what you pay for" if I were to do it again I'd find a better quality iron sight. remember these are for lowered gas blocks I have a DPMS Oracle. FYI Panther is the manufacturer you should include the model so we know what you're working with, good luck!

to be right on a flat top AR you need a 1/2 inch riser 8 slot. Keep it right in front of your BUIS. Get it close to your eye. The small dot is wicked! Best red dot for the money! Youll be amazed

I used this riser to give me an extra half inch that i needed for my scope which worked out perfect for me. I doubt it will be to tall for you, it all depends on how much elevation you need to clear your front sight for your red dot. For a scope on the other hand , that all depends on how your specific cheekweld is in relation to how high you need your scope to sit. Hope this helps.

The riser on this model is 1" I typically use a .8 or .75. This is set for what is called a 1/3 co-witness. If you could use a lazer chamber bore sight. it may help. What I am saying is the mount is a bit tall. This might be the issue. I will say that I have mounted probably 30 of these units and I have never had a bad unit, I have had bad mounts.

BLUF: No. This device is simply a magnifier. It has no crosshair, and is supposed to be used in conjunction with other optics, such as a holographic or reflex sight. You'll need to get a low profile riser to use any sights with this device, as it sits a little high and does not provide for any adjustment. I tried to pair this with a Sightmark Ultra Shot sight, and I couldn't see the majority of it.

This riser will work on any standard rail on an AR15. The question is what is the height of the device that you're going to mount on it. It matched to a Bushnell TRS25 on an S&W; VTAC-2 perfectly.

It will probably be too tall. I love the riser though. I needed to get my scope off the upper rail just high enough to be able to put the scope protective caps on. Works like a champ and brings it up to eye level for me. Maybe consider ditching the iron sights you have now and switch to magpuls offset sights. Little pricy but that's what I did. Hope this helps good luck.

if not you can put 1" riser blocks under Neath the see thru mounts that is the way I did it on my smith & Wesson p22 I have the laser under Neath my barrel and a big scope on top and can see my iron sights with no problem so if it don't work just with the scope mounts you can but 1" riser monts form Amazon and I know that worked for me

I think so the magnifier sits a little high but I think yours will just be fine since yours does too but the only problem I ran into is space the magnifier takes up a lot of room on the top rail I imagine you would run into an issue depending on the gun it will be mounted on

I cannot guarantee that. It depends on your sight height and whether your optic is magnified or not. But, if you are running a 1x red dot and you get the right height riser then it should not be a problem. Find out your optics height your a2 sight height and make sure you buy the correct riser. I do not use a2 sights. I bought the riser solely for the qd function.

no need for a riser, youll see the front sight but its no distracting, the eye relief is on the short side, youll have to mounted all the way back on the rail.

No you will need a riser to clear front sight. Possibly a half inch riser will work.

Yes , I needed a picatinnay riser I used the Barska riser it works great . The exit lens is to large to use without but lines up well.

Whenever I used this optic, which I don't anymore, my AR didn't have a front sight post. It was a slick top. However, this optic doesn't sit very high up but I don't think you would need a riser. Just be aware that you're gonna get what you pay for in this optic. I have since switched to the Lucid HD7 which is a much better optic. IMO. Hope this helped!!!

I imagine you are looking for an exact answer. It raises your optic mount about an inch. Enough to clear pop up sights with an AR scope. Thats what I used it for anyway.
