Does this still let you use your iron sights without removing it?

No. I could not get it to co-witness, but others have had more luck. I also find the co-witnessing is seldom required in a 22lr.

Yes, this is just like the original military mount, same as an over under sight, allows full use of iron sights. The only thing is may require a tad of fitting since all receiver width are a bit different. Once fitted, it reliable and repeatable.

Yes, With the STG/MP-44 The original flip site is in the way of the front fixed site. You need to remove the flip site all together then you are able to look through the Stangag mount...

I have the GSG STG-44, the UTG 2nd Gen HK STANAG Steel Claw is a perfect fit for the GSG STG-44 (can see my review about the fit on a GSG STG-44), you can add the UTG 2nd Gen HK STANAG Steel Claw to the GSG STG-44 without having to remove your iron sights but the iron sights are then not usable, no clear sighting path for the iron sights

It works fine for the factory HK-91/93 iron sights...once you can get it mounted. I returned mine since it required metal-work to get it attached--not the solution for me. See my review for more details. Sorry--ponied up the cash on gunbroker.com for the "real deal" and never looked back.

It does not work for my GSG STG-44 as the rear sight of my rifle blocks it. Yet if your rifle has low profile iron sights, you probably can aim quickly through the small opening beneath the scope rail for closer targets.

Yes your rear sights are left installed. However you can no longer easily look/use them.

you don't have to. You can have them co-witness as many others did with their red dot. Personally I don't like that because i feel the iron sight is distracting. But its only personal preference.

No problem with iron sights. I modified to allow easier cleaning. (Then I replaced the whole thing with the Tapco which costs $10 more and couldn't be happier).

Yes you can remove the rear sights . This gun is amazing very powerfully and better than most other guns that range up in the $150-$200

I have the same exact gun. The answer is yes and no. You can leave the front one on and it will not appear in your scopes view, but the back sight needs to come off, but getting it off is a piece of cake.

Yes, you can see the iron sight like normal and also your Red Dot Sight with you head in a more up right postion. I have my setup about half way, so it feels normal looking at both sights.

The type of rail you use will decide if the iron sights are usable. I have the Brass Stacker rail and yes, I can use the iron sights too.

No, you cannot see the iron sights when installed, so must commit to optics.

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

I mounted standard flip up iron sights in my AR. You can see the sights great right through the multi dot. Don't know why the reticle on top or a later on the side wouldn't work also. Very versital!

You have to take off the rear sight to put the rail in its place- so no you can't use the iron sights.I think the rail is about 6" long, but you can cut off any excess

My iron sights work with this on my takedown, however, there is multiple versions of the takedown now. If your rear sight sits up a good bit you should be good to go.

The mount goes over the iron sights but there is enough of a gap in between the rail and the sights that you probably could still use the iron sights as well. I've never actually tried it myself but looking at it, it looks pretty possible
1055878
yes. it is made to fit the carry handle slot. you still have to adjust scope elevation. you still are able to use iron sights.

I mounted it in order to install a Bushnel TRS red dot, so no you can no longer use the iron Ruger sights the way I have it set up.

My rifle didn't have iron sights, however with the medium height mounts and the 40 mm scope on a 22-250 varmint special I had less than a 1/8th inch clearance between the scope and bolt handle when the action was cycled. Had to go with the higher mount.
