Looking for info on what my best options are for red dots while still being able to use the irons on my Rival-S using the added plate that has a rear sight on it.
Not wanting to ditch the rear sight & just have the red dot |

Have a Shield SMSc inbound. I have one on my Hellcat Pro and can still use the irons so I'm hoping that's the case if I slap it on the Canik

I don't believe that there's a current option to have both.

I'm just trying to figure out which red dots will still let me use The irons while the red dot is installed. We'll find out if the shield can do it soon |

I test fit the dot on the plate that has the rear sight on it and it looks like one can still use irons with this particular dot. Now I'm on the fence whether or not I even want to put a red dot on this pistol lol

I believe if you use the plate with a rear sight. You will need a micro red dot sight. Tiny foot print

Too bad Canik didn't design it for a full sized red dot and sights . Sooner or later I'm sure a new improved Rival will be introduced to solve this problem. |

Its not a "problem," its a "competition" gun. A lot of competition shooters won't have both, they will have either or. Despite the Tacticool Bro consensus, both really are not needed. Example.  CH Precision Comp Dot won me over |
