[QUOTE="Boozer, post: 1179817, member: 22146"] Here's the thing. I have a nice AR with a basic leupold 3x9 on a typical mount that works great on anything from 50-300 yards, but it seems like half the time these stinkin' coyotes find a way to sneak up and pop out 15-20 yards away, leaving me scrambling to find them in the scope, and no excuses when my buddies give me a hard time later (rightfully so). I was thinking of using a basic 1x red dot on a 45 deg angle mount for the closeup shots. however, If mounted to the receiver, i'm afraid it would start to get pretty cluttered. OR! I'm running a ALG handguard [U][URL="http://algdefense.com/ergonomic-modular-rail-v1-m-lok.html"]Ergonomic Modular Rail (EMR) V1 M-LOK[/URL][/U] that has m-lok mounting holes at the 90 deg marks, and 45deg mark, so I could potentially mount it directly to the handguard with a shot pieceof pic rail. That would leave me with a pretty healthy eye relief, is that a problem with red-dots? Also, the handguard mounting seems very robust and tight, but I guess there is the possibility of POI shifts if the handguard moves? Anyone have any experience with this? I would guess that if guys are using handguards for flip up front sights, that they are solid enough. Thanks [/QUOTE]
