if a person put a Leupold VXIII 4.5-14X40 scope on a DPMS AP4 rifle, removable carry handle, but standard non removable front sight
is the sight going to be a problem with the scope behind it ??????? for 100,200, 300-400 yard shots ? does a person need high rings or a riser for this setup ? thanks |
| Crazy. That is the exact setup that I have; I haven't been on this forum much at all for a good while. I have mine on a LaRue QD mount - just the standard heighth. When I first got it, I had to look through it several times to understand why I can't see the front sight in the sight picture. It is an optical illusion. Seems like it would be an issue, but it's not. |

im having a tough time deciding between the RRA and the DPMS, the RRA is about 300 + tax more than the DPMS but the RRA is built how i like it.... though the DPMS should be plenty accurate, i wish it had the little shell deflector block on the right side where the forward assist should be SINCE I SHOOT LEFT HANDED or will this not be a problem ????
now, if i get the one with the round tube front handguard, how tough is that to change out to a quad rail, can that be done on your own ?? ive read of guys sending them to DPMS to have that done. |

ive got a millet dms-1 on my LR308C, mounted with a larue lt-104.
at 1 power, you see the fsb, obviously. as you go past 2x, the fsb becomes blurry and moves towards the bottom of the sight picture, well out of the way. by the time you get to 3x, its not noticable. |
