My red dot is kind of obstructed by the front sight. It's a little under the front sight post. Will this work, or be too tall? What about for a scope?

It will help I used this rail in conjunction with another 1/2 in riser so I can see my scope easily

Don't know about a scope, but I used it on my S&W-AR15;/22 to mount my red dot sight. The upper receiver is made of poly and this poly riser mount worked perfectly and looks very good. It raised my red dot enough to make it useful......before and without it, the red dot was much too low on the upper to be very useful. The red dot sight is now in perfect position. In my situation, I am very satisfied with this product.

Ooops......I order several of these risers some aluminum and some poly.......this happens to be aluminum, and it has the same quality and did the same job.

If your talking standard ar, no, it will NOT work. Too low, wont make it over sight. Now, the 1 inch, maybe 3/4 will work. The quality of the item is there. I put that one in the drawer, replaced with a 1 inch, and im good to go. Little locktite, and you will be good. Hope i helped neighbor

This will raise your sight 1/2" . Cut a piece of wood I/2" thick, put it in between your sight and rifle, tape in place with duct tape, look through the sight and see how you like the cheek fit. If its good, buy this riser. That was how I could tell it would work for me before buying it

It will probably be too tall. I love the riser though. I needed to get my scope off the upper rail just high enough to be able to put the scope protective caps on. Works like a champ and brings it up to eye level for me. Maybe consider ditching the iron sights you have now and switch to magpuls offset sights. Little pricy but that's what I did. Hope this helps good luck.

I used this riser to give me an extra half inch that i needed for my scope which worked out perfect for me. I doubt it will be to tall for you, it all depends on how much elevation you need to clear your front sight for your red dot. For a scope on the other hand , that all depends on how your specific cheekweld is in relation to how high you need your scope to sit. Hope this helps.

I use mine for my scope to clear the A2 front sight. It should work for your red dot just as well. You should get a riser that's tall enough for the optics to clear the front sight and put your eye at a comfortable height but not any taller. I have a couple heights for different optical configurations.

The rear of the sight is dead even with the rear of my std. MP 40 so if it is closer i would think it would overhang by however much it is closer. Does also work really well on the wifes sd9 so not sure

if not you can put 1" riser blocks under Neath the see thru mounts that is the way I did it on my smith & Wesson p22 I have the laser under Neath my barrel and a big scope on top and can see my iron sights with no problem so if it don't work just with the scope mounts you can but 1" riser monts form Amazon and I know that worked for me

Approx. 1.5." When using my red dot, it co-witnesses the front sight at the lower 1/3 of the view. I believe this is what you are maybe concerned about...?

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.

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

Probably on the onset no.....but you should be able to adjust the red dot scope to align with the center post. That's what I did.

I'm not sure what kind of sight u r referring to but I mounted a red field small red dot beside my scope. The fit was close to the receiver which keeps the red dot out of harms way and keeps the zero dead on for quick and close accuracy.

It should work if you have the rail sustem to mount it just adjust your front site post. Buy the tool to adjust it. Its like 5 dollars and get a bore sight, thats like10 dollars. And your be on paper. Just have to tweek it to.your eye

Yes. You would have to purchase a low rise mount on here but it wouldn't be expensive.I honestly don't see you needing to change it! When you use the proper stance and have the correct cheek weld it should be perfect, this is a standard red dot height. Don't bend your neck and bring your eye to the sight, bring the gun and sight to your eye!

This is high enough to co-witness. IMO you wouldn't want a scope to be high enough to completely look over the front sight that wouldn't offer a good check weld or shooting position. Your crosshairs will be looking through the front sight post. If you are using 3x and up magnification you most likely will not see the front sight A2 post. If that is a problem change out the A2 for a gas block with folding front sight.

Possibly. Sights (front & rear) and red dot need to be on the same sight plane. Good luck.

unsure tom, but i have a see thru mount to allow a scope and iron sights at the same time, they work well set at 50yds for me with it, and i imagine the clearances would be the same for you. i would suggest a different mount personally.

I would guess it would if you found a 45 degree picatiny mount for the under barrel picatiny on your gun, then mounted to that. You would have to roll your gun to the side to use it. Or ask your gun manufacturer what your options are for a top mount red dot. Hope this helps.

Depends on what you have but it should not interfere with the front sight. I have this on a shotgun and it does not interfere with anything.

I don't know how to mount the red dot scope either ! I have the same problem as it already has a visual sight mounted on top. There is no place to mount the red dot scope!

I can see the .223 holes from 100yds. Anything further becomes difficult for me. It will work with most red dots just get the right mounts.
