| I have a Super Sniper in a Larue 104, a Daniel Defense 1 oclock rail mount, and a Fastfire on order. The original plan was to use the DD mount with a Leupold with standard rings, but with the SS in place the turret blocks the view of where the FF would sit. I could put it on the left side, but that'd be oddball since I'm a righty. Any other thoughts? |
| Do you have a rail on the rifle where you could use some type of offset rail mount? Daniel Defense (and others) has a 1:00 offset rail mount. Seeing as a red dot is usually used as a close range sight I can't understand putting it as high up as some people do by mounting it on top of other optics. Keep it as low to the bore as you can (and still be able to see through it.) I run a FastFire on my competition rifle mounted to a JP/VTAC handguard at 1:30, using a 1/2" riser to keep it as low as possible while still being able to see through it. It's really fast up close and I don't have to worry about sight offset like people who have them mounted 3" or more over the bore. |
| Turns out that the top rail is JUST long enough to attach both the DD and Larue mounts, and the FF sits just out of the way of the windage knob, so it's good to go. I'd prefer the FF a little closer, but I'll train like it is now and see how it goes once I get used to it. |
