raising red dot

[blazzinbird]

I want my red dot off the top rail, higher would be nice. Any good idea what my options would be?

What kind of red dot? You will need to get a riser, possibly something like this...

how about a carry handle? works great on mine for mounting the 50mm scope

There's a lot of options out there. We need to know what dot you have though to figure out the appropriate style and height. If you go too high you'll have to lift your cheek from the stock to use it.

That is what I had on mine before I switched to a scope. It worked great. I used the .83" high one and it gave me a perfect cowitness.

First why do you want it off the top rail? What kind of shooting will you be doing?

I have the UTG medium riser (.83) works great for my needs.

7mm riser built into my EOtech EXPS-0, bottom 1/3 co-witness perfect, just where i like it.

You have a 50mm scope on the carry handle? That is quite a stretch, can you keep your chin on the stock?

As stated, the .83 will give you perfect co-witness if that is what you want. UTG 3 slot works great with the Bushy TRS-25 or similar sized red dots.

i need to see a pic of that! i thought he was talking about a gooseneck adapter that screws into the carry handle and then 'L' down to the handguard, but that would not work with a 50mm. Plus i don't think you would have enough internal adjustment to get your POI/POA down low enough. I call Shenanigins!

In my new 15-22 it does not work...

The emitter shut down part of the front sight (A2).

My TRS-25 (AR731306) came with a tall riser block
