    Default Those with Ghost Ring Sights & Optics--Riser Avail. To Allow Use of Both?

    I have a Supernova Tactical (with picatinny rail) that I'm probably going to sell, and getting an M4. Regardless ...

    I've been searching for a riser or see-through mount that would elevate my red dot sight while still allowing for the use of the ghost rings below.

    It's such a bummer that we can't co-witness, but this would seem to be an alternative.

    The only (hideous) example I've seen is this:


    Anyone aware of something more elegant?

    Hi John,

    I'm sure something could be found but I don't see a set up like that being very practical. I'd want to keep my red dot mounted as low as possible where you could still get some kind of cheek weld. The new Mesa Urbino will offer a riser model or you could get a strap-on type riser if you really want to go that route. I'd think with the speed of a dot sight you wouldn't really find any reason to use the irons.

    Good luck on your quest

    Buy a QD mount with a full cross-bolt system and keep it low, or buy the M4, get one of Kip's rails, and run a LaRue Low mount. It is retarded to have the sight that far above the bore.

    I get enough "theraputic communication" at work. Sorry, but I leave work at work and home is at home. Don't expect me to use theraputic communication unless you see me at work

    To get in to see me is a serious ticket. I don't think you want to have to do what it takes to come see me at work.
