Why would you want to remove your front sights?  There are several ways to mount optics without removing your iron sights.

I want to get an a3 model and use a scope but i also want to use the iron sights. If i dont remove the front sight it will get in the way. I want a more powerful scope not the type you put on top of carry hadles.

Hello,

I bought a RRA A4 with a removeable front sight for the same purpose as you.  The front sight simple comes off with the turn of a screw.  But, if your scope is 4X or higher the front sight is only a faint blur if you even notice it at all.  It does not interfere at all with the scope.

Happy Shooting....

You would probably want to mount the scope on risers to get the proper cheek weld, that would get it above the front sight.
