I am looking to mount this setup...
http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/templates/product/standard-item.jsp?id=0041012712855a&navCount=3&podId=0041012712855&parentId=cat602308&masterpathid=&navAction=jump&cmCat=cat601590_feat&catalogCode=XK&rid=&parentType=index&indexId=cat602308&hasJS=true Just an EOTech 557 with 3x magnifier behind it. Can I still put a BUIS behind the magnifier or does it move the magnifier to far forward for proper eye relief. And will a Larue QR mount work with the EO and Mafnifier? Thansk Wags |

1. It will fit as long as your 557 doesn't bump your handguards. It will bridge the receiver and the handguard a bit. Do you have freefloating handguards or the MagPul MOEs? That will make it an easier fit rather than the fat M4 handguards.
2. LaRue makes a specific mount for the EOTech magnifier so make sure you get the right one. |

S&W M&P 15 with quadrail. Wags So eye relief will be ok with the BUIS and Magnifier?? |

The 557 sits 7mm higher than the typical EOTechs, so you'll probably need a tall magnifier mount to properly align the magnifier and the EO.
I used one of the Larue TALL flip to the side mounts with EOTech 553 and an Aimpoint magnifier and it sits perfectly on top of my MAGPUL MBUS. |
