Does anyone know what the height above bore would be with this mount on a flat top AR-15?

I have two. Running a 4x16x44 on one flat top. And a 1x4x24 on another..... They work great.... Highly reccommend...... The specs should be on th leuopold website..... If you can't find it I'll measure

The actual height above bore not sure, but it worked well with my colt m4 with a fixed front A2 sight. It blurs out the front sight, I didn't notice it hardly at all. That was just me. When you look through any sight you typically look past the end of the barrel anyways.

Have mine mounted on an Arsenal SAM7R. Bottom of rings where a scope tube rests is 7/8" above the picatinny. Hope this helps.

It sits kinda high,you would have to run low scope rings to get a good line of site.also you might want to check how it moi ts on the rifle itself cause mine was not true the mount pointed the front of my scope down using the 91/30 shi.s that co.e with the kit.I suggest spending the extra money and getting a proper mount for the rifle Russian side mount or the rock solid mount

This information is from the Vortex site: Use this cantilever mount for mounting 30 mm telescopic sights onto flattop style AR-15 rifles. The 2-inch offset of this cantilever mount positions the scope in a forward location, allowing the correct eye relief and head placement on an AR-15. Aluminum construction. Note The cantilever ring mount positions the center of the rifle scope tube at a height of 1.59 inches (40.39 mm) from the base. Weighs 6.7 ounces. Hope this helps!

I used this scope on a flat-top receiver without a FSB. I used a mount with a 1" rise. I do have another rifle with a FSB and similar scope. Did not use a riser on it. FSB only shows up as a very small blur. Does not affect ability to hit targets.

Hi Rob, I have since giving my dovetail mount to a friend. From memory it added at least a 1/2 inch of height to the scope. I hope that helps. Dan

It might mount but the scope would not be high enough to properly align with your eye. On flat top AR's you need higher rings so that with a proper cheek weld on the straight AR stock your eye is behind the scope. Normal rifle stocks have some drop in the stock...AR's do not.

I can tell that I used the Barska mount that came with the scope and mounted it just fine on my AR-15 (223) and there was plany room for adjusting it back and forth on top of my AR.

Hello, I have the Burris PEPR mount on my flat top AR with a Hogue free float tube and I have a Simmons 3-10x44 Scope and it clears by about 5/8". While the free float tube is below the flat top, I would still have at better than 3/8" clearance if the rail was extended forward. Beware of some of the non-Burris look-a-like mounts as the centerline height above the rail is not as tall as the Burris mount and could cause clearance problems as well as hinder proper eye alignment. Hope this helps

I use this on my AR with a Leupold 6 1/2-20. Very nice. Perfect height. Solid mount.

The height of the sight from the top of the rail/gas block is 1 9/16". This low profile sight is great if your gas block (mine) or front rail is the same height as your upper receiver. If your gas block is lower then you need the normal height sight. I hope this was helpful.

You will need to measure the hole to hole distance on your rifle. The mount outside to outside holes measure 3-15/16" and the inside to inside holes measure 2-9/16

When mounted on a Weaver rail the bottom of the scope is .844 inches above the top of the rail. These rings are the right height to mount on an AR-15.

im not sure, I had to use a 1 inch riser on my rifle because it was way to low by itself. I guess it depends on the setup you currently have, if its a piccany mount with no handle then i would say yes to be comfortable.

I have mine mounted on a midwest industries free floating hand guard. I took my Colt AR and lined it up side by side with the barrels level and both sights were the same hight.

I'm not sure I understand your question, I had to use different rings on my flat top rail. The ones I bought were 1 inch high.
