Re: AR15 Optics Question
It looks similar to my Eotech. It should cowitness with your front site. So you'll be fine.

Re: AR15 Optics Question
You will most likely see the front sight when looking thru the optic if you mount it 'as is' on the rail. If you used a spacer you could probably get it high enough to not see the sight but in doing that your accuracy may suffer because of the 'high' cheekweld.
Most people like co-witness of the sights."The world is a dangerous place to live, not because of the people who are evil but, because of the people who do nothing about them."

Re: AR15 Optics Question
I would go over to AR15.com and do some reading before buying that red dot. The general consensus seems to be to stay far away from NCStar optics.

Re: AR15 Optics Question
I had an NCstar on my AR for all of...10 minutes. I got it on there and then took the time to bore sight it.
Fire the first shot and the recoil hosed it. Wouldnt turn on after that.

Re: AR15 Optics Question
Yep they appear to be pretty awful. Unfortunately a quality red dot optic generally costs some cash. Save your pennies and buy something good, instead of wasting a Benjamin on that thing.
