Is the Aimpoint Pro a good optic for a rifle with an existing front sight? Seems like a pretty good price. "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown "The United States government is the largest criminal enterprise on earth." -rduckwor | |||

^^ In my experience, yes. The lazy man's way is to simply put the red dot over the top of the post or right above it. | |||

Yes, amazing sight. I have mine co witnessed with stock iron sights on my SIG556. SIG556 Classic P220 Carry SAS Gen 2 SAO SP2022 9mm German Triple Serial P938 SAS P365 FDE P322 FDE Psalm 118:24 "This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it" | |||

The red dot itself is much better on this Trijicon than on my Aimpoint Mini. -c1steve | |||

Yep. Here's one of my ARs, with a Pro and a fixed front sight base: 
You don't need to bother aligning the dot with the front sight post. You basically just ignore the front sight, focus on the target, and overlay the dot on the target. The front sight only serves as a backup, for use with a backup rear sight if the optic fails. (Unlikely, with an Aimpoint.) Or even without a backup rear sight, you can use the tube of the red dot optic as a giant "ghost ring" to get rough hits on closer target if the dot were to fail. | |||

Where's the bayonet lug and chainsaw mount?  ----------------------------- Guns are awesome because they shoot solid lead freedom. Every man should have several guns. And several dogs, because a man with a cat is a woman. Kurt Schlichter | |||

Don't need a bayonet lug or chainsaw mount. But I do need a sling, light, optic, and backup sights. All my serious defensive long guns have those four accessories. I hardly think that's excessive. | |||

2Adefender, you have to apply the promo code to get the reduced price. CC201820PCT Just checked it and it’s still good. *** "Aut viam inveniam aut faciam (I will either find a way or make one)." -- Hannibal Barca | |||

They work just fine with front sights. If you are using the dot, your brain just tunes out the front sight. The fish is mute, expressionless. The fish doesn't think because the fish knows everything. | |||

Thanks for the heads-up. Didn’t want to have to wait until Black Friday timeframe for good pricing to come around again. Placed my order. “I won't be wronged. I won't be insulted. I won't be laid a-hand on. I don't do these things to other people, and I require the same from them.” | |||

$379.30 as I'm a Texas resident. It's still better priced than Amazon or Primary Arms, and PSA is out of stock. I own two, and bought them from Amazon and PSA.

That code will get you 20% off anything on their website, including firearms. Even with $10 shipping to the store, I still picked up a Gen5 Glock 19 for $100 less than anywhere around. | |||
