| I just got a new UTE 2. From what I am reading it dosen't really offer the best options as far as mouting optics/sights on it. I want to put a EOTech 512 on it. What would you all suggest for being the best way for me to go about this? |
What is the problem just mounting it on the pic rail in front of the sight? |
Well, nothing I guess I was just looking for some advice on what options I had and what my sight picture would look like with those different options. I was just worried that mounting an EOTech right to the rail the way it is now my sight picture might be obscured. Steve, I was considering the Aimpoint also and it was kind of a toss up between that and the EOTech, do you think the Aimpoint fits this gun better? |

Six off one,half dozen of the other. The EoTech (551/552 and 511/512) were made to mount directly to the upper receiver's rail and achieve true co-witness. The Aimpoint would require a seperate mounting ring made for co-witnessing, and because of the rear sight's consruction, it should probably be a forward canting/cantilever mount that will mount onto the receiver but put the Aimpoint partially over the hand guard.

Thanks, I think I'll just stick with the EOTech. |
