[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Rail on TOP of scope?

Does anyone know if someone makes a rail system that can attach on TOP of a standard 1" scope tube?

Something like this . . .

What your lookin for is on the scope, up-top in the pic above, sorry but I have not been able to locate who makes them, but perhaps this will help. Seems somebody on the EE sells them, but for the life of me I can't find one now.

BTT for help w/ finding scope mount on scope....

I believe that's the ARMS #22 Tactical Ring Rail.

That's the ARMS #22 Tactial Ring Rail.

You need the #22 ring bases and a TRC (Tactical Ring Cap), and a TRR (Tactial Ring Rail).

Steve @ [url=www.adcofirearms.com]ADCO[/url] has them.

So has anyone ever seen this setup with a standard scope on the bottom with a Eotech sight on top?

Those tactical carbine and 3-gun match type guys have set-ups like that, for close and long range target engagements.

Thanks, to Calvert and theRicker for the help, I knew somebody sold'em, and thought it was ARMS, but they don't show on their site....

I was figuring the Eotech wouldn't be sitting much higher than it would if it was sitting on top of a carry handle and for sub 100 yard shots should still work great from that vantage. Then I could switch to the magnified scope for the really long shots. Think I'm going to buy them. Thanks for the help. I'll post pictures when I'm finished with my gun.

I'm not trying to hi-jack the thread, but I found that this setup puts the second sight system to high for me. The rifle I use in 3-gun matches has the scope mounted on an Armalite riser mount and a C-more on the right side of the forearm.
All I have to do to move from the scope to the C-more is rotate the rifle 30-35 degrees counter-clockwise. I do not have to re-adjust my cheek on the butt stock.
I'll post some picks tonight once I get home from the 2nd job.

Thanks. Too late though. Already ordered the stuff. In fact they already shipped it (now THAT was fast). I don't think I'll have a problem with it but I would still love to see how you have your gun set up.

Try something small and low profile like a Dr Optics. It will sit much, much lower than an EoTech.
