I am just wondering why people have rails all over their AR i cheaped out and went with a A2 upper but if I really want to mount a aimpoint its very easy the Army has been doing it for years now.

Am i just a cheap bastard for not going with the A4?

Yes you are, and don't worry about it. A good gooseneck mount works fine.

Gooseneck might work, -1 on the above handle mount. Too high up, and the sight tunnel obscures your vision of the front sight.

Just swap out the A2 for an A3. They're $90 or so. Have someone with a barrel wrench swap it out for you. A decent gooseneck will run you about the same amount of money.

ARMS #16A on a A2 works great.
