What size rings is recommended for a scope when you also have an A2 front sight?  Does anyone have pics?  does it look totally lame?  Im wondering if I should just remove the front sight and go with a flat gas block?  I was trying to remove the pins on the sight and they wouldnt budge ( i know they are tapered).

You won't see the front sight if that is your worry.

The ring size you need is determined by the scope you have - generally, it's either 1" or 30mm.  As was mentioned, you won't see the front sight - I just put a Bushnell banner on a flat-top upper I have and you can't see the front sight, even on the lowest magnification.
