About the only way I think this would be okay is mounted on a freefloat Mlok handguard at 45 degrees using a pic rail section. If you don’t like the Magpul Mbus Offset sights, the C-note could give you offset AK47 style irons on the handguard.

Probably something custom they made for test firing like the dry fire trigger demo that they gave with triggers for awhile. Some ranges do not allow shooting with out sights. It something you can quickly use to test fire new builds while at the range. Don't over think this. |

My personal favorite part is how he's responding to a bunch of comments on his Instagram posts about it saying, "Go ahead and slap it on your rifle out of the box and tell me if you can hit a pie plate at 10 yards with it."
Like that's some magical feat of accuracy...? Pretty sure most mildly competent shooters (i.e. basically anybody that is into shooting guns enough to know about LaRue) could do that with most rifles at 10 yards just by sighting roughly down a bare rail. |
