I got my magnifier and mount yesterday! (2 days after my order ) but now I have some questions.

The Burris mount seems to sit noticeably higher than the Sparc that I'm running for an absolute cowitness. I get a black ring in the top of the magnifier since it picks up the top of the Sparc. If you could take a look at my setup and make sure everything is okay, and if it's setup fine, is this normal or is there another mount that would be just a little lower? I know it's not the magnifier itself since it's extremely bright and clear on its own.

You can add a spacer that should have come with your SPARC to make it sit a little higher. You are not running a rear flip so you can't cowitness anyway.

I completely forgot about that spacer. I went ahead and put it on and I can still just barely cowitness with my iron (I do have one, I just can't run it with the magnifier since it's too tall. Time for a new one...)

Much much better sight picture. Appreciate the advice! And just for the hell of it, here are a few more pictures. I've got your quad rails as well as magnifier. Great products!

Oh and I'm not sure if you'll know  a definitive answer to this or not, but do you think the MBUS will fit under the magnifier? I've been using a cheap UTG  rear sight

I have the same magnifier and the mbus works great
