Archived [ARCHIVED THREAD] - Standard front sights and scopes
Posted: 10/27/2004 9:07:51 AM EDT
Do the standard, non-folding front sights mess with the scopes?  I know its not much of a concern for a reflex sight but I was wondering about the higher powered sopes. thanks

I find them to be annoying at times.  It's like a blur at the bottom 1/2 of the scope.

4X and above you don't see a front sight post on a carbine. 5X and above you don't see the front post, becaus they are out of the focal plain. With a unity power like a red dot, you want it there in case you ded dot batterie dies, so you can co-witness.

Unless you are looking for it, you'll never even see it.
