Can I use my iron sights with this scope (I have a flat top)?

Flip up sights only. Pin should align with red dot when on or off. For close up work and if tritium equipped is best.

I would only reccommend it with pop up sights. My pop up sights align w the center of the optic where the dot would be if the battery fails. Then I can flip up the front sight and use it. If your iron sights are fixed, it may obstruct your vision of the red dot.

Yes - you absolutely can use the PRO with iron sights on an AR-15 pattern rifle. With the included mount, the red dot should be an absolute co-witness with your fixed iron sights. You can buy another mount later if you would like the iron sights to be lower in the sight picture at a 1/3 co-witness level.

I have the colt m4 flat top with a standard front sight and it matches up perfectly.

yes - just make sure you have the right tool - there is one for straight sided sights and one for angled sights.

Yes probably. This is made for a flattop with no optics. You would probably be better of with some sort of red dot that you could co-witness, or a scope on risers to get above the sight.

Yes, the iron sights are perfectly usable with this rail as long as no scope is mounted (which is probably why you want this mount anyway). When a scope or red dot is mounted the iron sights are covered completely, meaning you would have to take the time to remove the scope if you needed your iron sights!

Yes. But on a side mount I would get the fastfite but with the regular picatinny mount. The ar flat top mount raises the fastfire sight to cowitness with the ar sights.

It depends on the iron sights themselves. The UTG riser has a square hollow opening through it, so low-mount irons might work. The flip-up or tall irons might work with the right optic......and it all depends on how you have each mounted on the main flat-top rail.

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.

Yes you can. It just raises the sight on the scope a little bit but you can clearly see the iron sights

my ar is a flattop but i do not think the sightmark will clear your fixed front sight without a modified mount. it is my understanding that most people co-witness the red dot with the front sight.

Yes you can. Has rails on top for sights. I use fastfire ( Burris ) You can put on Doktor, EOTech or any type of sight. If you don't want to have a reflex sight, the mount comes with upper rings without a rail.

You could use a set of see through rings which mount the scope high with a passage underneath so you can see the sights. Or a quick detach mount or qd rings insread to remove the scope quickly so you can use the iron sights.

Not unless you want to use your iron sights in addition to this scope. Then you'll need 1" high see through scope rings.

Possibly. But there is a large height difference between the scope mount and the forward picatinny rail. With the correct riser on the magnifier it might work. But I don't know how well it will work with sight and magnifier on 2 different rails. But I don't know if you can find a riser for the magnifier that will still allow you to use the iron sights. Which was important to me. Because expensive optics probably will not fail. But iron sights always work. And the m1a has phenomenal iron sights.

I have a complete flat top with a gas block so i wouldn't know for sure. From what i know of this scope and ar's I would assume yes.

It is considered a high mount, providing proper clearance and eye position. If you have a fixed sight and low power setting on your scope, you will be able to see that front sight. You might try a folding front sight to cure that problem. If you are trying to co-witness iron sights and scope, it will not work right, because of magnifying effect, even thou the height will be right.

Yes on a flat-top AR. As long as your rail is the same height on the front & rear mount points. If your front mount is a lower rail height than the rear you need the tactical height from sight. I bought the low profile for my flat-top. Three adjustments total & dead on.

Yes, The scope will attach to any standard Flat Top. You will need to adjust the quick release system so it mounts tight on the rail. If your M400 still has a front sight blade you need to replace your Gas Block and then buy a pop up front sight. I like the scope I purchased.
