I just ordered a used Aimpoint Comp M2 that will come with a QRP mount. Now, I reading that I need a mount spacer to get any type of co-witness with my back up sights? Is that correct? Thanks. |

If it is a complete QRP mount it should some with a spacer and longer bolts to give you a lower 1/3 cowitness. The spacer looks like a saddle and goes inside the ring, under the body of the RDS. Yep. Let me dig through my massive box o' good stuff...I have a couple. I will take a pic. |

Found this photo of the item with mount. It doesn't appear to have the spacer. Can I use the optic mounted on my flattop carbine as is, or do I also need the spacer for proper cheek weld? <a href="http://s212.photobucket.com/user/Babo47/media/EE4F019F-1945-4787-BF9B-B0DCD7A30520_zpskuxo2lfm.png.html" target="_blank">http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc18/Babo47/EE4F019F-1945-4787-BF9B-B0DCD7A30520_zpskuxo2lfm.png</a> It's usable if you have flip up BUIS, but not optimal. WITH the spacer, the cowitness is absolute, so without it your irons will be in the upper 1/3 of the window. If you have a fixed FSB, it will obscure quite a bit of your sight window. |
