Does this mount/protector sit any higher on the rail than the standard Fastfire III Picatinny mount? In other words, does this raise the sight any higher off the gun? Thanks!

A very slight amount, probably less than the thickness of a dime. I set the unit up but have not had the chance to zero the optics nor fire the weapon. It is mounted on a Benelli M4. Hope this helps, sorry for the delayed responce.

If you have the Fastfire with the picatinny mount you can mount it to the rail This mount requires you remove the rear sight from the dovetail and replace it with the mount. This results in a very compact mounting of the Fastfire III and it allows me to use it with most holsters.

It will probably be too tall. I love the riser though. I needed to get my scope off the upper rail just high enough to be able to put the scope protective caps on. Works like a champ and brings it up to eye level for me. Maybe consider ditching the iron sights you have now and switch to magpuls offset sights. Little pricy but that's what I did. Hope this helps good luck.

This comes with a lower 1/3 cowitness, cantilever mount. I have it on an AR and it allows the front sight to sit in the lower one-third of the viewing window, leaving the red dot above the front sight. There is a separate true cowitness mount available from Vortex that will have your red dot line up dead center with the front sight.

You may have noticed that the UTG Medium Profile Riser Mount with 3 slots was listed along with this sight and that mount is generally good to co-witness your AR-15 iron sights. I have had to also use the Low Profile version on some guns but Medium should be fine.

I just bought the burris a2 mount. Built for this sight. Protects sight on sides and brings it up to eye level when shouldered. Fits on picatinny.

Will not mount on the 1" rail mount. The flashlight is 1 1/16" in diameter not 1". I've had problems finding a picatinny mount for it???

The Fastfire will mount directly to the rail if you buy the Fastfire with the rail mount. I purchased the Fastfire with out the rail mount and then you need to buy the Rugger mount. It cost more to do that but I liked the look. Hope this helps.

I put it on my rifle and it worked perfect. I personally don't think it's high at all. It's very comfortable for me.

Mine actually arrived and had a FastFire 3 with the scope. The mount is included too.

I used this to mount a red dot for the same problem that you are describing. The AR I mounted it on has an integrated front iron sight. Like you are describing it interferes but I am not going to be the fool that screws with a iron sight from the SigSauer factory. This rail perfectly raises the sight just above the front sight so that the sight is usable and not a problem. This is definately the way to go. Hopefully I have answered the question let me know if not.

The Burris FF has a specific mount that mounts to the Ruger Lite. It is a bit more money but will make a better fix and will not be as big as the rail you now have in place. I have a Burris FF on my Ruger Lite and it makes a very good set-up. You will enjoy it. Rhea Reed

Yes. You would have to purchase a low rise mount on here but it wouldn't be expensive.I honestly don't see you needing to change it! When you use the proper stance and have the correct cheek weld it should be perfect, this is a standard red dot height. Don't bend your neck and bring your eye to the sight, bring the gun and sight to your eye!

Yes, it's just a picatinny rail on a riser. UTG and others make a "medium" height riser that allows a absolute co-witness (dot sets on front sight post) with the Magpul MBUS gen2 BUIS

This is just a riser mount for a flat top AR to bring the Fast Fire 3 to comfortable eye level. The sight is not included. I would think though that if you put a rail on your Ruger the Burris Fast Fire 3 sight would work as a reflex sight. Hope this helps...

I have a picatiny rail above the iron sites. It mounted directly to that and the mounts are free floating until I tightened them, with the Allen key it came with. I reall hope that answers your question.

On my gun it didn't pose a problem. It was virtually flush with the gun, but ultimately mounted just fine. Gun is an AR.
