[QUOTE="ez bake, post: 1119487, member: 229"] The Leupold Mark AR is a good deal, but if you want a magnified optic on an AR with a standard Front Sight Block, then the short answer is that you're going to run into issues with it (you either have to remove it or raise the optic to be able to see over it or you'll have a big blurry spot in the middle of your field of view). Raising the optic is not desirable unless you just absolutely have to keep the FSB (I can't do a raised optic without a raised cheek-wield). An easier way would be to grind down the FSB and use it as a gas-block without removing it (its taper-pinned and is probably the best gas-block you'll ever own). Problem is, if you do this and want to un-do it, you'll have to either get a Quad-rail with a sight mounted to it, or replace the gas block. BTW, this isn't my old M&P15 is it? [/QUOTE]
