Thread: optic mounting options for an ar

in the process of figuring out some optic sights for the ar tried a red dot on it i had in the parts draw but as i thought the dots to big to be able to get any consistant accuracy so took that off and put a 3x9 nikko stirling i had in the parts draw accuracy improved ten fold the only thing now is the eye bell of the scope sits over the top of the charging handle ive seen the canter lever mounts but do they make you crane your neck forward to far for comfortable shooting the red dot was good in that it didnt cover the charging handle so an acog style sight would work but getting pretty pricey or is there a charging handle that suits a normal scope mounting set up cheers nd
