I read the FAQ, and since I really couldn't get an answer to my question, I'm starting to think that I need to 're-think' my setup. I have a RRA entry tactical, post-ban, with faux supressor removed and phantom 2C installed (thanks, ADCO). I pitched the carry handle, mounted an Aimpoint M2 utilizing the mount that came in the box. Now I'm looking for a BUIS in the event that the Aimpoint pukes, or I just want to plink with irons. I'm just a plinker, and I'm not too terribly worried about co-witnessing. If the SHTF, I'll center the front sight post, and hope for the best until I can remove the Aimpoint and fall back to irons, if necessary. That being said, if their is a rear BUIS that will co-witness with my set-up, I'm open to that. I'm primarily concerned with finding a plinker-budger BUIS that I can use when I remove the Aimpoint. Seems that most only have adjustments for windage, and not elevation. I'd like to be able to compensate for elevation. Or am I missing the larger reason for elevation settings' absence on most BUIS? So, if I can co-witness with my current set-up, what rear BUIS do I need? If I can't, and I can have rear elevation adjustment, what do you recommend? Thanks a bunch! Mules |

there are some that include elevation adjustments: KAC, Matech, LMT... but the general consensus is that elevation is NOT needed on a "back up sight"... you zero the elevation on the FSP and windage on the rear... BUIS are a "set it and forget it" deal... IIRC, the aimpoint QRP mount will provide absolute cowitness, with the spacer it will be lower 1/3... |
| If you don't necessarily want a folding BUIS, consider the Rock River Stand Alone Rear Sight. My experience with it has been superb. |
