Hey everybody. I have the standard non-flip sights on my 15-22, and have replaced them with a Sightmark optical sight. I seems to work very well after maybe a K of rounds through the gun. I would like to use both iron and optical sights, but when I sight through the optical with the iron sights on the gun, my reticle is almost on the top of the front post. They are in each others way. What I would like to do is co witness these sights, not so that the top of the front sight matches the red dot, but it would appear just below it through the window in the Sightmark. Then the sights wouldn't block each other and both be useful. What I need is a riser that would work to raise the optical a little (so I can look at the iron sight just below the reticle at the post , (most are too high). I trust in the vast wisdom of all of you out there that have solved this problem. I think I need a riser about .5 inches in height but will watch here for the perfect solution. Thanks everyone.
