I have a front sight post on my Sig will the this sight sit to low on my sig where the front post will block my view?

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.

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...I Also have fixed front post on my ar15 and it doesn't interfere. Good scope too.

It will definitely enhance your ability to see the front sight. It is not technically more precise that the stock sight. It really helped me.

Well it opens up to just under an inch. So if your front sight post is no more than that. I think you shall be fine.

I'm not sure Jack. Not sure how it will line up or how it will co witness, if at all. I wound remove the front sight all together but that is just my preference. My AR came with no sights because I wanted to put my own on.

I found the A2 replica front post sight to be very close to the M16 upper receiver A2 sight post which is a fixed post. What make this sight nice is that it is removable. However, I have a 1 x 4 power scope mounted on a 1 inch riser. I leave the front A2 mil spec attached for looks, it does not affect my scopes sight picture. I also have a carrying handle with integrated manual backup mil spec peeps, just in case my scope loses it's zero. With just a few twist of the binding posts' and a swap out, I am back in action!

It seems to depend on who answers the question. The sights I received are on the same plane and the front sight does not work with a low profile gas block. It seems that the order fulfillment companies are sending out each type randomly.

You should be able to keep and use the front sight. The Samson rail tucks in under the lip of the gas block.

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

it depends if your mounting your front sight on the end of a free float handguard or mounting directly on your barrel with a gas block. If your mounting on a free float hand guard, then your front sight is going to be way off, even if you use same plane or low plane BUIS. I mounted mine with a gas block because the aiming plane of my rifle looked more in line rather than the aiming plane looked high when mounted on my hand guard.

It's hard to say as I have a red dot on there now. I just looked from the barrel back towards the stock and then rail looks higher than the sight. It may block it.

I would say no. If the front sight is higher than normal, it would not fit in the grove in the push.

Sight sticks up just a tiny bit more than two stacked quarters. About the same as factory sights. I have had no problems with this sight catching on any of my holsters.

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.

I have not had any interference with the standard post front sight using this scope. I have the perp mount which help keep sight picture right in line

I haven't had any issues with mine. I hit the four screws with thread locker during the initial install. I have the same rifle and have not had any issues. You will be able to see your front post and enough of your rear sight to still have functional iron sights as is claimed.
