Yea I saw that post I had a weaver rail mount that was somewhat taller and it was just too much. Yes the side rail is already on. I guess at this point I'm looking for a red dot optic with a fine reticle that is good quality and for the price you just can't beat the russian stuff.
Also, I wanna retain the use of irons and ease of cleaning so the scout mount and railed handguards are out.
Yea let meet up, I'd really like to see how your mount sits and maybe test it on mine if possible. PM me with a time.
