    guys

    im sorry.. im italian and my english is not so good..
    what is a lower 1/3 co-witness and what is the absolute co-witness??

    i have this compM4s installed on my bushmaster, i used a larue mont to go with the red dot a bit over the front sight...

    is this a good solution? or i have to stay lower with the aimpoint to have best and rapid aim?
    ciao

    Looks like you have a lower 1/3. Which is quicker depends on which works best for you.

    Lower 1/3 co-witness (which is what your setup provides) just refers to where your irons will appear in the field-of-view when looking through your optic (in the lower third of your glass), as opposed to "absolute co-witness" wherein your irons will be in the middle of your optic's field-of-view.

    the 1/3 is my preferred setup, and seems to be the more popular of the two - your current setup allows you a less cluttered view when looking through your optic, but still allows you to use the irons if necessary - I personally wouldn't change a thing.

    I was just quoting Mr. Roadking. To be fair, VLTOR's site says that in the description. I think it's completely BS. Just another stupid marketing scheme...

    My fault MM, it just says US Navy. I misquoted the site. It's in the last part of the first paragraph here.

    Edit: Roadking's BS statement got jumbled in my head, he must have assumed it was for the SEALs, stupid Internet statements...

    ventedda - no worries. it's funny how one thing leads to another though
    roadking actually said that it was designed BY the SEALS, not just designed FOR them.
    anyways, it was Navy EOD down in coronado that it was designed for; EODMU-3 at least has them.
