THE IMAGE ABOVE IS A PAID ADVERTISEMENT
Does the standard gas block front sight post block the view through something like the Burris Mtac? Is this a problem?

You'll probably see it.

It wouldn't bother me but I'd get bored one day and take a dremel to it or buy a low-pro gas block.

With these smaller 3-gun type scopes I could see how the AR front sight could really block a lot of the forward view. Larger scopes with the 40-50 mm lense don't really notice the front sight post. Like you said, I'll probably go with an upper with a gas block with no sight.

its not the size of the objective, its the magnification. Lop that sucker off, like Cam said.

Or I might get another upper. Been looking at that STAG 3-gun upper.
