Forgive me if I ask this question wrong. I am new to the AR 15 platform chambered in 556. Will this scope be good for this particular rifle? And will I still be able to use the iron sites when needed or if needed?
Hey Steve no forgiveness needed. The only bad question is the one not asked. I would say yes this scope will work on an AR platform. Still being able to use iron sights would require mounting the scope on a detachable mount. This would be the case no matter the scope you would want to mount. You can get see through mounts, however I have found that they cause the scope to be very high and thus difficult to get a cheek weld to use the scope effectively. Thank you for your question and I hope my reply helps.
Thanks for the review. I've been looking at this particular scope. I have heard the eye relief is a little tight. What are your thoughts? Also is that a Magpul Hunter stock? Thanks again.
I really like the scope! Eye relief is good on the one I have at max zoom it's about three inches. Yes, that is a Magpul Hunter stock. The barrel is a medium Palma profile. They are excellent stocks. I have a video on them on the channel. Thank you for the comments and questions.

Thank you, sir. This absolutely helps me make a decision as every little bit of information helps me get comfortable with my new AR 15 rifle.
