[QUOTE="gohring3006, post: 1065164, member: 78762"] It's a product of design. The AR stock is inline with the barrel and bolt carrier for the buffer tube. That's the reason for the carry handle sights being so high. I'd be willing to bet if the buffer tube was not needed that there would be no carry handle in the design. Bolt actions have the barrel sitting above the stock cheek area. And sometimes need more elevation in the stock. [/QUOTE]
