if you mount a 40mm scope, will the front sight show in scope?

This mount is fairly low to the receiver. If you don't have a front sight you can flip down I would not recommend it.

Depends on what you want to mount in it. If it's a 1x scope you will see the front sight. If it's 4x and above you won't see it because at that magnification the scope can't focus on something that close. At 3-4x you may see a slight blur at the bottom of the scope, but at higher magnifications you likely won't see anything.

As long as there's no front sight, as Mr. Adkins mentioned. When you put the scope on, because of the size of the rifle, you may need higher scope mounts too.

Nope - the front sight assembly (much later, because of the baoynet) on the M44 is different, as far as I'm aware.

I believe it will mount just fine- you may not have much of a picture of the front iron sight using the peep holes though.

It all depends on how you mount the scope. Co-witnessing will work but at higher mangnifications the front sight post will be blurred like any magnified scope.

With your rear sight mounted in a forward position it could effect your sight picture alignment. But with continued practice and get comfortable with the location I don't think it would be a problem. Hope this helps.

Not sure, took the carry handle off A3 and put the utg and a scope on works fine. The front sight shows in the scope but does not cause any problem.

No, but none of the others will either. The crosshairs will be all you see from 3x and up. Only on low power will you even see the front sight. Now you may get lucky like I did, when my scope is on low power (1x to 2.5x) I can see and use the front sight post, but this is a freak bit of luck, but not guarenteed. I say get it anyway, if you feel it's too low you can buy an inexpensive riser

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.

The B Square mount itsself does not interfere with the ability to use the iron sights. You cannot use the sights when the scope is mounted. There is no see through. The scope mounting rings actually block the sights,but then I have the scope mounted!

No. I bought a set for my sw40f. Front sight had no problem. The rear sight dovetail doesn't fit the slides dovetail opening Big Problem.

My scope (nikon 4-12x40 BDC) sits high enough using the SPR for the magpul folding rear sight to be folded under it (no way or reason to flip it up with the scope mounted). I typically mount the scope before I go to the range and take it off (love the thumbnuts) when I leave, and rely on the flip-ups for home defense. The front of my 40mm scope sits just above the magpul rail covers (ladders), maybe 1/4" gap. I also have a IWC QD mount on my top rail just in front of the cantilever portion of the mount.

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

No, the front site will stick up into your field of view. That being said, it depends on the power of your scope as to whether or not you will notice it. I use this mount with a Nikon P-223 3-9x and I only notice a glare my front site on the lowest zoom and when in direct sunlight. At 100 yards, I can still keep 30 rounds within a four inch radius. I have heard that you can swap out the front sight for a gas block, but I haven't tried it yet.

They are for scopes with 1 inch tubes and on mine in order to fit a 40 mm scope I had to take part of the front iron sight off, which was really easy, but it depends on the scope you put on it.

You should be able to use a 40mm objective with the medium height version. That's what I have. You may have to remove the rear sight depending on how far forward you mount the scope.

No. I had to take the iron sights off. The high point front sight sticks up too high. It would be in your scopes view.
