Will this scope clear the charging handle on an AR 15 or would it need to be mounted with cantilever mount

I would think if the charging handle doesn't come up to the picatinny rail level on an AR it might. But I have mine on a lever gun, so can't say for sure. If the rings are high enough that the eye piece (rear) of the scope is higher than the rail, I can't see why it wouldn't. But, as noted, I don't have mine on a AR, so can't be a 100% certain. These are carried at Dick's sportgoods, so a visit to them, to see if it'd clear, might be in order. Or buy one, try it and if it doesn't , take it back.

I mounted this particular scope on a Ruger Mini 30; however, I have 2 other Nikon scopes mounted on AR platforms. I did not cantilever the mounts. It is a close fit but you can easily charge your firearm. There are after market charging handles that extend and clear the scope and you can also use high profile scope mounts.

You'll need to purchase the correct mount for your rifle. The scope itself doesn't come with one. I use a Burris mount to attach to my AR.

It's a taller mount. It matches up perfect on a flat top AR. Probably too tall for a standard rifle.

Mine is mounted on a bushmaster AR15 patrolman which did not have rail mounts so I had to purchase a rail mount system to use it and I mounted the sling mount rail to another weapon that I have so I can witch the bod from one weapon to the other. I hope this helps and good shooting.

It takes 1" mounts. If you're mounting it on an AR-15, I highly recommend the Nikon P Series mounts. Also sold by Amazon. On mine, I simply removed the carrying handle on the AR, and using the Nikon P Series mounts, mounted on right on top of the receiver. You might think that the front sight would be in the way, but it's not. This is a great combination. If I might make one more suggestion. If you are mounting it on an AR-15, I highly recommend you get a Sightmark laser boresight. I have them in 223, 25-06, 270,and 30-06. Also sold by Amazon. They will save you a lot of time and ammo. I sure hope this helps you. If you have any other questions, I'll be glad to try and answer them for you.

On my SBR AR 15 it does clear the front sight. On my LMT, LWRC REPR and AR 10 in 7. 62 Nato, the front sights are removable. I have used scopes for the .223 and .308 in this mount.

I have mounted on AR 15 and it moves to much not a tight fit. Plan on returning it fits to loose on the rail

I don't know if it will. I am using mine on an AR15, and it is small enough so It can be mounted in front of my Aimpoint scope without restricting the view. I must add, it is an impressive little device.

Hello if you are using the Hawke 50mm you will need high mounts in order for the scope to clear the receiver on the rifle. I would suggest steel mounts. Thank you

I installed my Raptor on my Colt Socom, But I believe all charging handles are the same on ar15s

"Fairly" well is the best that can be expected from a removable mount. It's not perfect but passable if you must use a removable mount. I have taken to just leaving it mounted to the rail once the scope is zeroed in. If tightened up properly it will hold zero and not move.

Read the specs, I don't have it readily available.I have mounted mine on a AR15.

You either need to put a detachable carry handle on the rail and mount this scope to it, or find a different scope. This will ONLY mount on a carry handle.

If you have a radical set-up, say an AR15 with a scope on rings on top of the carry handle, it won't work. There is an add-on kit for this unit that will compensate for that sort of thing, also for larger than normal bore diameters.

My AR has a carry handle so mine is mounted on that with a see through mount. I might suggest a set of see through rings. Hope this helps.

I would say yes. I have it on my ar-15 and I don't have a problem with it. The only thing that you might have to do is change the scope rings on it. The rings are made to see thru and that might be a problem. Also at 100 yds I can see what I'm hitting. Hope this helps you. Good luck with the scope.
