Would it be correct in thinking that a detachable handle with A2 sights, protected while off the rifle, would retain zero when replaced?
I plan on putting a Holosight with FTS magnifier on my flattop. Don't have room for a flip up sight (no rails on handguard, and no riser). If I wanted to have the handle readily available in the off chance this setup fails while out in the sticks, would I be able to remove the holo and mag., and put the handle back on and still have zero? |

You'll be "combat close". Windage may be off a bit if you don't put exactly the same amount of torque on the lugs everytime.
I never shoot for groups with my flattop AR's, but I can swap back and forth with my Larue mounted optics (Aimpoint and EoTech) and DCH and hit the 6" gongs at 100m with no problems. |

Thanks for the reply.
This would be for a hunting situation where I have no choice. Inside 6" keeps me inside the kill zone. I'll just have to practice shooting after putting it back on to see how much it affects windage so I know if it would still be worth taking a shot or not. If nothing else, it will keep it a defensive weapon at that point. |
