[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Eotech mounted on a flattop (pics through the optic please)

Posted: 1/6/2006 4:20:32 PM EDT

I looked at the tacked thread up top but it is a dead link. I want to see what the site picture is through and eotech when mounted directly on top of the reciever but I cant find the pics becuase the thread I guess is dead. I click thelink and it leads me back to the main forums. Could somebody post a pic for me?

*kicks himself in the nuts so nobody else has to*

In short, the EoTech co-witnesses with the iron sights.

But does the red dot stay in the front site post or does it sit right on top of it? If it sits in the middle of the FSP it will drive me insane and I will have to buy a riser, that is basically what I am asking.

This is with a YHM riser.

The reticle moves around as you move your head, so you can "adjust" it's position.
If you "center" your eye in the middle of the Eotech window, the dot should sit pretty much right on top of the front sight post.
At least I haven't found any problem in this regard and I have no riser.
In this pic the reticle is higher than it would usually appear (difficult to get a camera in the exact same position ones head/eye would be).
