does this mount the scope high enough to see over the iron front sight on a AR15 S&W sport

My answer is the same as Chris's. The front sight is not visible looking through my Nikon P-233 scope.

You may have noticed that the UTG Medium Profile Riser Mount with 3 slots was listed along with this sight and that mount is generally good to co-witness your AR-15 iron sights. I have had to also use the Low Profile version on some guns but Medium should be fine.

I have it set up on my AR and it has it's short comings. I would prefer the sights to be alittle higher. If you're not running back up iron sights then it works great.

I have this riser mount in my S&W; M&P; 15 with a regular 32x scope and the front post doesn't interfere with the scope view. I'm sure you won't have any problem with the auto range either. Without the riser the post is just below the center. I also have to say this little riser is surprisingly well made and for the price is a steal

It will sit on the top pof the rail so yes more than likely you will see the front sight post in the scope. Really I regret buying this scope. Save up for a better scope. It is poorly made.

if you have a front sight you will want to have the scope above it so you can use it as another or back up sight.but you will always want the scope as low as you can mount it.

This will fit any standard Pincinny or Weaver rail mount. If you use it with iron or polymer backup sights, you will have to use a 1/2" rail riser to get it high enough. I have it on a Windham Weapntry SRC AR 15 with polymer backup sights, it works just fine. Hope this helps.D. Hill

No. It mounts directly to your receiver by drill tap. The front sight is attached over the original bead sight by epoxy.

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.

It should. I have mine on top of a Ruger 22/45 with a custom low mount base now. It was on my AR-15 on a 45° side mount and got dropped a couple times and stayed on target.

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!

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.

It fits on my S&W; M&P; Sport 5.56. I also added a 1/2" raiser because I wanted the red dot above my front iron sight.

Should be high enough with this riser. It put my scope up enough to see over my AR15 front sight. It is strong but lite and easy to put on and off.

Although I have a riser, I didn't need it. Mine is mounted on the flat top rail on my M4. A2 front sight is not a problem; the reflex sight lines up just above the front sight post on mine.... no conflict using either sight. I did not use the riser; it actually interferred with my iron sight by blocking the A2 front post.

Yes, you would need tall mounts to clear over the front sight though. Good luck getting it dialed in.

Yes. You can still see through the iron sights below the scope mount. I recommend adding an adjustable cheek rest to your buttstock to accommodate using the scope or the iron sights are required while still maintaining a good "stock weld." An Archangel (if on a budget) or JAE (if money is no problem) drop in stock works great.
