Acog with stock front sight setup

[TomH]

Got a question: if I put an acog on a flatop AR (colt 6920) will the front sight post be in the way? I have a standard front sight post. I do not want to remove it and put in a backup fs. If the post appears at the bottom of the view and doesn't get in the way of the BCD markings I'd be ok with that (sort of like a lower cowitness). Does anyone have a setup like this, or has anyone tried one?

I'm looking at this setup in particular: http://stores.homestead.com/Laruetactical/Detail.bok?no=254

You won't even see it when shooting.

The FSB will be there... but because of the magnification... you won't see it. And it won't block your sight picture through the ACOG.

You're good to go

I have an M4RCO ACOG. The FSB will be visible as a dark blur, but it will not affect anything and the BDC will be perfectly useable.
Just remember - a BDC is just a "best guess".

Thanks for the info. I'm taking the plunge!
