Keep the fixed iron sights and get the LaRue mount.
It should come out looking something like this, it cowitnessed great and the sight picture wasn't too busy.

flanntastic,
I had to clean off my keyboard thanks to that pic(drool)....:D
That's exactly the setup I want.
I'm using the 557.AR223 EOTECH........Hope to still be able to use the DD iron sights without having to raise the 557.....
Eotech on a quick detach Larue riser mount, troy BUIS, co-witnessed in the lower 1/3 of the eotech. Keeps the eotech reticle uncluttered by the BUIS and front post. Still allows use of irons if eotech goes down. If eotech becomes caked with mud, snow etc. then pop it off with the QD mount and use irons.
mark1jt,
That's the exact mount I had an eye on. The 557 does give you a little more height than a couple of the other EO's, but I want my EO sight window as clear as possible since it has a series of dots below the main for 4, 5, and 600 yard shots based on 223 ballistics.....
This site is great! Thanks fellas!:D
Shadco,
what's your thoughts on the Eotech flip-up covers??
If you run an EoTech 516 your irons will co-witness in the lower 1/3. I leave my irons up all the time.
Weapon is a NOVESKE N4 Light Lo-Profile with Noveske/Troy BUIS.
