I have a rail from CBC Industries, one of the gen 2's. Ill put the link below, wondering if I can get one of the 45 degree off sets mounted under the scope from the receiver to line up with a front flip up mounted directly to the front rail on the 45 degree angle? It will make sense if you look at the rail in the link below.

Thanks in Advance

There is a tag list of buttons at the bottom of the text screen when you are typing a post that lets you attach and "hot link" links or pics.  That way we don't have to cut and paste your links into a browser to read them.  Welcome to Arf.

But, to the point, if your rail top slots are on the same plane as your upper receiver, there is no reason you can't use the Magpul offsets or regular folding sights on 45 degree separate mounts. Either use two Magpul offsets, front and rea,r or two regular Magpul sights, front and rear in duplicate 45 degree offset mounts.  The front sight you linked to above is not offset.  It is for the top rail or for placing in a separate 45 degree offset mount.  Your front and rear sights either need to be both offset, or both regular but in 45 degree offset mounts to line up properly.

Hello,
   Thanks noted on the links.  Also CBC replied to a message and confirmed that the top rail and an add-on key mount rail will conflict so my question was answered.
you can get rid of this topic if you want.

Thank you!!!
