What you're looking at is likely just a mounting suggestion for the KAC sights. A la "Hey, they work this way too!")
If your ACOG fails catastrophically, you can still use 45 degree offsets out to 100, as long as you zero them properly, know your holds, and practice with them. Folks practicing with their BUIS
- what's this world coming to...
At some point, your backup (to your backup to your backup
) should probably be another weapon and/or a new plan. My bottom line: if your ACOG takes a shit and you can't use the 45 offset irons due to whatever reason, it might be time to draw your handgun, fix bayonets, and/or pop smoke. This may not be a viable option for those in the military who still have to drive on to a primary objective, or in a very very small, select, blue moon percentage of LE scenarios. If we're talking about HD, then the offsets should be fine at those ranges, or even across the street.
Back to the OP: my suggestion would be to pick one set of irons, and put the money saved on the other set towards training ammo dedicated to those irons.

The advice above is worth exactly what you paid for it.
