Hi Folks,

I'm new at both the AR platform and the red dot sights so please be patient and go slow. I am getting a Noveske 6.8 with VIS. I plan to mount an EOTech 512 on it. Problem being that I have never mounted an EOTech and have no idea what I need to get to mount it properly. Do I need something like the LaRue mounting or will something cheaper do?

It comes wioth a built-in mount. When you mount it, I recommend mounting it a little forward. On a regular upper, I like to put mine on the last rail slot on the upper receiver.

You do not need this, but I like it and have one. Every one I know has one also and LOVE this riser.

Like I just posted, you do not need it but it helps

This raises the EO-Tech so the iron sights are in the lower 1/3rd of the window. If you do not have this , a front sight post is 50% in the window of the EO-tech.

This is why I like it, do to the fact it lowers the front sight post and gives better visibility wile shooting.

Ahhh, that does look like just the ticket. Drives me nuts to have the target obscured! Thanks John!
