Do you guys know which folding rear iron sights will clear a mounted j-arm? Is the Magpul Pro low enough to clear the arm and the knob?

Thanks.

Sorry if this is a dumb question but are you asking as if a PVS-14 is weapon mounted? I don't quite follow.

I'm wondering if a J arm will clear a folding rear sight. Obviously it will depend on where the arm is mounted but is there a rear sight that's low enough to clear the arm without concern for rail location?

I think the reason Sam wuz asking if it's weapons-mounted was because we were having a discussion about using the weapons-mounted RDS with head-mounted MNVD in another thread. So my first thought went to that set up as well. The GI mount should clear the polymer MBUS; Pro I don't know.

My guess is the polymer sight is too tall and too wide to clear the wheel on the arm.

My guess as well, but I know for a fact the TM14 with Aimpoint twist base will work

So I've found the MBUS Pro rear sight will work although it may end up hitting the big knob depending on the windage correction of your particular rifle.

Anyone else know what's compatible? USGI Matech? KAC?

I'm interested also. Running a PA aimpoimt clone and a magpul rear flip up sight. Looking to attach my Atn PS14 to my rifle. Thanks.
