Default Sightmark

HI. havent posted in a while because i was waiting my my red dot to come in lol. I just installed it and put it in the middle of the space between the front and rear sights. My question is, Do most people keep the front and rear sight on the gun or do they take them of or just keep the one on. I was thinking of taking the sight closet to the barrel off becuase it seems pointless to line up the red dot with the sight bc if you do that u might as well take the scope off????

Opinions??
Thanks

do whatever is easiest and most comfortable for you.

leaving the irons on is nice because if you're batteries die you can keep shooting. having said that, if you are using the OE rear sight (versus a flip up) you have the aperature to deal with. not a big deal but for some it's annoying. it's all personnal preference.

Personal choice. You can go either way.

I run optics, so I take the OE front and rear sights off.
