Mounting an ACOG on Colt AR15A4

[Sry0fcr]

Please be sure not to disassemble your AR15A4 using the two push pins, either. This will keep your AR as original as possible.

In case it hasn't sunk in yet... OP, you'r being ridiculous.

Does anyone own the Colt AR15A4 and know if you can mount an ACOG on the removable carry handle with this:

Asking because AR15A4 has a removable carry handle, not sure if there is a difference between that and a permanent carry handle.

And there it was the whole time.
You can always put it back. You cant use the handle/sight anyways with an ACOG on it.

I think both can be used with the carry handle mount, albeit not as well as with going with the rail mount.

I remember when my Colt 6920 was a virgin and went to Bible Study everyday too...

Now she's......not.

Like it more now than I did back then.

Good luck with that and an ACOG.

OP, if you want to keep the carry handle mounted AND run an optic, look into a cantilever mount. The cantilever mount will position the optic out over the handguard and allow cowitnessing with your irons. My Dept. used Trijicon reflex sights for 8-10 years set up this way.

Yeah, prolly not. Maybe a mini-ACOG. Sorry OP, lost sight of the objective.

I believe eye relief with an ACOG is the issue, not size.

Um, and that it’s 4x fixed?

There is so much fuddassery going on in this thread it makes me want to partake in the tide pod challenge and hope I lose.

Just get a Larue mount, use the 1913 pic rail flattop for its intended use, and get on with your life.

Per those Gooseneck ARMS mounts. They look kinda cool in a retro 90s way but having used one on an M16A1 and had it snag up in door frames/kit/etc.....not just no, but hell no. Plus they are only meant for RDS.

Its the current year. Just use the pic rail.

Unless you are really going to go haji/terrie hunting for real then you dont need a BUIS with your ACOG. You could even keep your Carry Handle in your range bag. It will hold zero.

I mean, come on dude.
