How long of a rail is required for the front sight?

For the rail you only need about 1 1/8 inch. So if you are attaching to a low pro gas block need will need it exposed, when folded the measurement is 2 inch total unobstructed. By the way, I love these sights!!

the length of the sight laying down is 1 and 15/16ths inch. In the upright deployed position it requires 15/16ths of an inch rail space.

I'm not sure Jack. Not sure how it will line up or how it will co witness, if at all. I wound remove the front sight all together but that is just my preference. My AR came with no sights because I wanted to put my own on.

Roy answered you question, not much more to add other than needing a 3/8' dovetail to 1" weaver rail.

If your pictinny rail is at least the length it then it should be no problem. Save some ammo and get a bore sight as also

It is nearly all flush with the fear sight mount. Maybe about 1/4 inch if you measured. Note: I'm pretty critical of these types of parts, but i found the design and fit of this rail to be really good. I have two, one mounted on a romanian AK, and another on a Chineese 86s AK. It worked great on both.

The sight sits right on Picatinny. Measured from top of rail to center of magnifier lense is roughly 1 9/16". Hope that helps

It should work if you have the rail sustem to mount it just adjust your front site post. Buy the tool to adjust it. Its like 5 dollars and get a bore sight, thats like10 dollars. And your be on paper. Just have to tweek it to.your eye

Correct you will need the riser for 1/3 co witness. If you are shooting with both eyes open as you should even without the riser and absolute co witness you really don't see the front sight. My rear sight is fold down so that isn't an issue.

The height of the sight from the top of the rail/gas block is 1 9/16". This low profile sight is great if your gas block (mine) or front rail is the same height as your upper receiver. If your gas block is lower then you need the normal height sight. I hope this was helpful.

The rail is just a "hair" under 3.25" It fits perfectly, flush to gun, good machining, hi quality, very happy with the purchase.

The quickmount is 2 inches long. The total space you need is dependent upon what you are mounting it behind. I have mine mounted behind a sightmark reflex sight and need 3 inches of rail to get it done.

I have mine on a KelTec PMR-30, fits and functions well. How long is your rail?

The overall length is 5.5" The approximate hole spacing, starting from the front end of the rail, is as follows: 1-27/32", 2-11/32", 4-15/32", and 4-31/32". The last hole towards the rear of the rail is 1/2" from the end.Hope this helps.

Sorry I don't know the height of the A1. If its the same height as the handgaurd rail you would need the shorter sight....

Don't know. This sight was really hard to put on. You have to pound out the stock front sight.
