Hello you will not need a riser IF you buy a set of off set iron sites https://www.google.com/search?q=AR+15+iron+off+set+sights&client;=firefox-a&hs;=Hlq&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&channel;=sb&tbm;=isch&tbo;=u&source;=univ&sa;=X&ei;=og-mU7WICcuyyATDiIKADQ&ved;=0CGQQsAQ&biw;=1656&b;ih=1040#facrc=_&imgdii;=_&imgrc;=720lGI7NKDltgM%253A%3B70mt0obxRHqBEM%3Bhttp%253A%252F%252Fcdn2.armslist.com%252Fsites%252Farmslist%252Fuploads%252Fposts%252F2012%252F11%252F20%252F671070_01_offset_ar15_iron_sights_buis_640.jpg%3Bhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.armslist.com%252Fposts%252F671070%252Foklahoma-city-oklahoma-tactical-gear-for-sale-trade--offset-ar15-iron-sights-buis%3B360%3B480 good luck Art Z Hello you will not need a riser IF you buy a set of off set iron sites https://www.google.com/search?q=AR+15+iron+off+set+sights&client;=firefox-a&hs;=Hlq&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&channel;=sb&tbm;=isch&tbo;=u&source;=univ&sa;=X&ei;=og-mU7WICcuyyATDiIKADQ&ved;=0CGQQsAQ&biw;=1656&b;ih=1040#facrc=_&imgdii;=_&imgrc;=720lGI7NKDltgM%253A%3B70mt0obxRHqBEM%3Bhttp%253A%252F%252Fcdn2.armslist.com%252Fsites%252Farmslist%252Fuploads%252Fposts%252F2012%252F11%252F20%252F671070_01_offset_ar15_iron_sights_buis_640.jpg%3Bhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.armslist.com%25... » Read More Hello you will not need a riser IF you buy a set of off set iron sites https://www.google.com/search?q=AR+15+iron+off+set+sights&client;=firefox-a&hs;=Hlq&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&channel;=sb&tbm;=isch&tbo;=u&source;=univ&sa;=X&ei;=og-mU7WICcuyyATDiIKADQ&ved;=0CGQQsAQ&biw;=1656&b;ih=1040#facrc=_&imgdii;=_&imgrc;=720lGI7NKDltgM%253A%3B70mt0obxRHqBEM%3Bhttp%253A%252F%252Fcdn2.armslist.com%252Fsites%252Farmslist%252Fuploads%252Fposts%252F2012%252F11%252F20%252F671070_01_offset_ar15_iron_sights_buis_640.jpg%3Bhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.armslist.com%252Fposts%252F671070%252Foklahoma-city-oklahoma-tactical-gear-for-sale-trade--offset-ar15-iron-sights-buis%3B360%3B480 good luck Art Z « Show Less

It all depends on your front site. I did not want to remove it so I needed a higher riser to see over it.

It should view over the front sight post no problem. I may not be 100% positive, however in my experience I have never seen a m4 platform rifle in which this sight could not see over the front sight post.

If you are talking about an A2 style fixed front sight, than YES, you ABSOLUTELY need a riser mount to clear the front sight with this scope. The included quick detach mount is very low profile, and if you mount directly to the receiver rails the front sight post will totally block your view if you have an A2 style front sight. I had to buy a 1 inch riser for it to clear the A2 sight

I used this to mount a red dot for the same problem that you are describing. The AR I mounted it on has an integrated front iron sight. Like you are describing it interferes but I am not going to be the fool that screws with a iron sight from the SigSauer factory. This rail perfectly raises the sight just above the front sight so that the sight is usable and not a problem. This is definately the way to go. Hopefully I have answered the question let me know if not.

I think it would depend on the scope. I bought this to put on my AR to raise my Eotech 512 over the front sights. It didn't work because the Eotech has a large fastening knob on the side which got in the way of the riser. I ended up having to go with the medium profile riser which worked well. Hope this helped.

It depends on how high up your red dot optic is above the rail. You can easily get a riser rail for a few bucks if it doesn't.

I have an F-marked front site base and Magpul flip-up rear. With this setup I have no co-witness. I had to order a mid riser to see through it at all.

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.

If you are referring to the front sight "co-witnessing" through the reticle in your scope, I can't say for certain since my recent build has "NO" iron sights, just a scope. I know this mount is specifically designed for the AR platform to allow what you are talking about. Sorry I couldn't be more help

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.

sorry, but no. you can always get see through risers then mount the dovetail on the rifle.

The high-rise mounts will be high enough to see over the front mount. I bought the riser blocks and didn't need them.

The sight you are looking at will only work on uppers with gas block. These are a tad taller since the gas block is slightly below the quad rail on a flat top m4. The front sight is also adjustable for elevation.

Any idea what size riser would be needed to allow this to co-witness with the iron sights on a Beretta CX4?

This Riser will make it a 'lower 1/3', it is probably not a 'Absolute co-witness'. I have a red dot scope mounted on this riser and I can not see my (G36)sights through my scope.

yes, that is what I have, but you will need a 1/2" riser to cowitness with your front A2 and rear MBUS sights
