As you can tell from my previous post, I'm putting the finishing touches on my new AR and have arrived at the problem of optics.

I have decided to go with an Aimpoint Micro (probably the H1 since I don't have any use for the night vision settings) and a QD mount.

I don't want to have an exact cowitness (is that the right term?) but would rather have the dot sit a bit higher than the irons. I was all set for the LaRue LT660 when I saw the LT660HK which is meant to be a bit lower.

I have Troy folders as irons and I wondered if the H1 in the LT660HK would clear them sufficiently so that the dot is higher than the irons but not as high as with the regular LT660. The goal being to move my cheekweld as little as possible if I have to transition from optic to irons.

Also, how does that affect, if at all, the mounting of a QD pivot mount for the Aimpoint 3x magnifier?

Pics of similar set ups would be helpful if anyone has any.
