Apr 9, 2020 · Quoted: Yep. Lower 1/3rd cowitness. With the dot centered in the middle of the optic, the dot sits right at the top center of the front sight hood (on the SEI gas lock front sight).

Jan 6, 2012 · Depending on which red dot sight is employed, you may able to use the window/lens opening of the red dot sight as a rear ghost ring. In an earlier post in the optics section we've posted pictures of the view through the sight enabling using the sight as a rear ghost ring if the lights should go dim. The picture above is with a Doctor sight(Ger).

Apr 9, 2016 · It was hard to shoot plates beyond 250 yards due to the size of the red dot vs the size of the target. It was hard to get a good poa to account for bullet drop. If you zeroed your M1a with a red dot sight for 25 yards you would still be pretty close (2 -3 inches) to poa out to 250 ish.

Jun 19, 2021 · If you are using the scout rail system with a dot on that you may be able to get one to co-witness. If its possible the most liekely cantidates are the type found on a MOS Glock or other optics ready pistol. Something like a RMR The only dot I have run on M1a is a Aimpoint 9000L in 30mm rings it does well but no co witness. Blackhawk Down photo

Aug 20, 2016 · This base is designed to use the small, mini, red-dot sights that are commonplace on firearms today. The optic sight is now low enough that it allows a perfect cheek weld for me. There's no need for adjustable cheek pieces or add-on risers. Springfield offers the M1A CQB with or without the optical red-dot sight package.

Nov 25, 2023 · here is a red dot and magnifier on low arms 22 rings and an arms 18 mount. It was the only red dot setup over the receiver that was low enough for my liking. I have about a business card thickness worth of space between the magnifier and rear aperture. had to use this specific primary arms 3x magnifier for enough eye relief.

Apr 3, 2012 · The rail appeared to be about 1.50 inch long and had two rail mounting, positional slots. I thought it might hold a single point red dot ring/mount. I had been considering installing a mini red dot sight on my M1A rifle, but did not like the forward, scout style mounts.

Jun 6, 2009 · I like the Aimpoint Comp M/ML 3 with 2 MOA dot. I also use the Desert Warrior Products rest. On the standard M1A here, I have made multiple hits on jackrabbits at 300 yards using this setup. I don't have too many rds through the Socom yet so can't say how she does. But handling with the Ap, and this setup, is excellent.

Sep 22, 2015 · a red dot isnt that great with the m1a anyway. in fact its about the last thing i would ever run on my rifles. same with my scar 17 ill just use the irons or use a magnified optic. not saying that the MANY users who run red dots are dumb or …

Sep 4, 2020 · Just returned from the range. I can confirm that you can’t co-witness the TRS 25 with the NY compliant Springfield M1A Scout rifle. I did get the red dot set up at 50 yards and made nice hits at both 50 and 100 yards. No sub MOA but fast fire head and body shots at both distances. Minute of man stuff but I was very impressed.
