red dot/reflex

I am wondering if the front sights of a mp5 would cause a problem with this http://www.airsoftpost.com/product_info.php?cPath=32_182&products_id=26704

perhaps a little bit. If need be, just cut down the irons a bit or buy some sort of riser.

I don't know about you but the rear sight and front sight assembly on my shell of an MP5K are removable, so worse case you could just take them off.

I suggest getting a high-profile mount instead of a low-profile one. Or a riser like Jarhead999 said.

and one other thing, would it be wise to trust evike, I've heard too many bad things on the online store review page

On my G36C, I use my red dot with no riser or anything. Yeah, the irons can be the way, but I've gotten used to them. And this way, I can still use them when my optics die.

And yes, if you want to get your stuff six months from now and get it broken.

thought so. guess I'll wait for this to come in stock on ASGI http://www.airsoftgi.com/product_info.php?cPath=36_340&products_id=3943

and If I had to I'd get a riser

+1 to almost the entire post(have no irons on my G36). The thing I see most guys here are confused about is most red dots were designed to have the irons "in the way". This is called co-witnessing, and its this way so that you can use your gun effectively if your red dot dies.

http://airsoft-club.com/shop/aiming-sight/red-green-dot-sight/1x22-g36-type-heavy-duty-red-dot-sight-scope-with-red-laser <-- this red dot made specifically for the G36C allows you to use your iron sights AND the laser dot. The laser dot is also adjustable and so is zoom.

Whoa that's cool! I'd get a G36 just to use that thing... well, maybe not, but it's neat.

Thanks for the link, LW, I may need to buy one of those eventually.
