My New Norc M4 meets Mr. Cutoff Wheel

[Mystic Precision]

Jerry, you giving up precision and going all-in tactical now?

Get some AA mags and wail away!

I shoot all sorts of stuff all the time. My main focus is FTR at this time but Service rifle and PRS are being played with and testing never stops.

You can't co-witness anything with a 4x (and up) scope, the focal length of the objective won't let the front sight be anything more than a shadow. If you're using a 4x, you'll need to run off set sights, there are mounts available, but they'll require a rail. The easy way to mount a full rail is to cut the FSB down to just a gas block, and install a rail over it. This takes about 30 minutes if you're really careful, and gives you a rail out to the muzzle. In short, there's no way to see the front sight with a high magnification scope.

thanks for above. really appreciate it. Would you please guide me if i zero my rifle with that scope at 200 meters , would the front sight post be having any negative effect over the accuracy . regards

Nope; the focus at 4x (and higher) is far enough that your front sight will almost or completely disappear, usually only a slightly darker shaded area at the bottom of the scope will remain, if anything.
