How well, if at all, does this cowitness on an AR-15?

Perfectly. You can also use a riser and do a lower cowitness if you prefer.

It has cowitnessed great on both my ARs, one with a fixed front sight and another with a BUS flip up on a block. Holds up well to .223. Looks like holding up well with ~300 rounds through an AR in 7.62 as well. These are good sights for the $$. I worried alot about co-witnessing at first, but I found that once I get it sighted I just need to bear down on the rifle and put the dot on the target and it is on. I do not try and ensure it co-witnesses before I fire, but if I do put the dot on the very top of the front sight post it is also on the money. I actually use it with the front sight down on the one rifle now (after sighting it) and it is golden...

The TruGlo cowitnesses quite well. There is a misconception in the shooting community that cowitnessing means the same target picture for both your Iron Sight and your Reflex Sight. Since they are not working on the same principle it is likely that you will not have the same image though you can force them to be. So in terms of cowitnessing meaning that it allows you to utilize the reflex sight without the iron sight getting in the way then yes it is perfect. (I use mine with a static front sight post and I am able to cowitness fine.) If by cowitness you mean same sight picture, that is not necessarily true. The TruGlo cowitnesses quite well.

I scoped a couple 22LR Rem 597's so far and it worked fine. I know several other members in our gun club would like to use it as a bench rest for their rifles. Haven't had a AR-15 on it yet. This item is just low cost rest and it seems to be a good value so far.

Absolutely it works very well on any AR-15. I have one mounted on a DPMS Panther MPR15 with a 22inch barrel, shooting match grade 5.56 ammo, it's a rock solid platform. It's mounted with a M223 Nikon M-223 XR 2-ring mounting system, shooting (-) MOA at 200 yards. I would not change a thing. IMHO.

i've never held an ar-15. they work real good on an sks and marlin 60. utg makes quality products.

i have it mounted on my ar 10 and I have had no issues with it even dump 4 mags quick and no problem with it

I would say it works well on my AR15 but it doesn't stay zero .......every other time i go to the range i have to zero it. But you get more than you pay for.

I cant answer that but I can say don't put this on an AR-15 after 2 or 3 rounds it is out of alinement after 5 rounds you shooting the target next to you its so off.

Yes , I do have it on an ar10 and at 100yds Im shooting 1/2 an inch moa . So not bad .

I have used it on my .22 rifle, so I think it would work good for an Ar15. It has some great features for the smaller caliber guns.

Works fine on an AR platform. Shotgun recoil is much higher. Probably would work well on a shotgun. It clamps on a rail securely.

I had mine on a Mossberg ATR-100 30-06 and had no issues. Also put it on my Ar15.

I've been very pleased with this scope mounted on my ar15. Eye relief hasn't been a problem.

I use one on my AK47 and my Remington tatical 12 gauge which has a lot more recoil than an AR15 with no problems

MINE IS ROCK SOLID, i flipped my mounting bolts over to the left side, added a drop per bolt of red locktight and after getting it finger tight i ever so slightly tightened mine down a half turn or so past finger tight with a socket.. mines never budged. Even at finger tight mine was on pretty solid with no play or wiggle, is your rail aftermarket ? is it a el-cheapo or a quality rail ? is a factory rail on a AR ? im guessing the problem is not the optic.. however you never know. do other mounts fit you rail solid without issue ? contact Lucid.. they are flat out awesome to work with !

Have not shot it yet but on a low recoil AR in .223 I don't think there will be a problem

I think so. You're getting a whole unit for less than the price of a good mount. Mine is on a 15-22, and it holds up during shooting, but loses zero during transport in its soft case.

It is an excellent mount for the AR-15 Colt. Never heard of anyone having a complaint...excepting one individual had an issue with it staying tight. I doubt anyone else has had the same issue so I wouldn't expect it to be a problem. If it was on a big caliber light-weight magnum, perhaps it would be an issue...but I doubt it.
