can this be mounted and zeroed from the side rail of an AR15?

I don't see why you couldn't but it is designed for a shot gun. The multiple dots surrounding the center dot simulate the blast pattern of shot. They have a cheaper single dot green laser that might be better.http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00CK3UCAI/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

No, and any mount that is will not let you maintain a proper cheek weld. This usually not an issue though as your eye will not "see" the front sight any way.

sure, as long you hace a picatiny rail,its not very tight thoug. might be kinda loose but wont fall, just rattle a bit. i put one in my ar-15 and works fine.i bet on a smg will work great.

Yes, but the rifle has a dovetail mount I believe. This is designed to fit a picatinny or weaver rail. Recoil from an air rifle certainly wouldn't be an issue. Works great for my AR 15, and got my scope up higher to install my 45° sights too ;)

It mounts perfectly on a flat top AR15 using Nikon's p-series scope mounts. Must be a flat top though, without the carry handle. Hope that helps.

It only takes up 2 flats and 1 slot. If you're gas block is lower than your rail you may want to mount it further toward the buttstock end. It will be stepped down otherwise and you may have trouble zeroing. The idea being both front and rear sight mounted parallel to each other.

I haven't tried it but believe so. great sight by the way. holds perfect zero on my AR

Previous answer was primarily in reference to a AR-15 type platform, though as with others answers there are many options and directly depends on what weapon the site is intended to be mounted on.

Use a off set high rise mount setting it directly on a rail on top of your ar 15 and not carrying handle a off set high rise mount setting flat

This mount will work on any AR with or without a front site tower. The scope will not see the front sight assembly unless it is extremely low magnification. You do not want to be over the front sight tower as the cheek weld will be almost impossible to achieve also alignment of bore and center of optics will not allow the scope to be zeroed properly.

I am not familiar w/a AR15 myself but this is referred to as tactical & I mounted a red/green dot site that was advertised for a tactical rail. GDH***

The answer is yes and no. Yes to the parts. No to correctly mounting and zeroing the scope to match the barrel. As I teach rifle, I always recommend that if you don't know how to correctly mount the scope, bring everything to a professional for mounting. You can also go on line to a place like YouTube and look at all the videos on correct mounting.

You can mount it either place but mounting on the gas block will require you to raise the front sight post to account for the difference between gas block and acc. rail height. Mine is mounted on the rail.

Not sure, I have this mounted on a vepr 308 and it sits just left of center. However, you can still see the iron sights through the center of the rail and it DOES hold zero on my 308! Any of these type of side mounts will most likely be off to one side or the other because of the wide variety and differences in AK's but if you have a good scope that difference want matter at all. It's a great scope rail at the price, also the side rail comes off to save some weight as well.

I don't believe it can. Due to the AKs lower site height, I think the Mount will place it too high.

The correct answer is NO. You can mount this to any handguard that has a rail on the bottom. For example, the Magpul AR15 series front hand guards can have a rail mounted on the bottom, this will mount to that. I have it setup this way on my M4 and one on my M&P; 15-22. the M&P; needs a bit shaved off to get it as close as you'd want it.

Yes, most likely. If the gun is hung by the stock. Or you could maybe also use two mounts and have the gun hang horizontal.
