Reddit reviews UTG 1" Picatinny Riser Mount, 13 Slot

What's your purpose?

I've got this: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005UGIMNQ/ref=oh_o01_s00_i00_details on mine (with a riser, http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003TWX8HS/ref=oh_o01_s00_i01_details) and I've got no issues hitting an 8" plate @ 300y with my 20" AR.

It will work without a mask, yes, although it's just a rail riser. If you don't have to use your full mask, you can just remove the riser and use the red-dot on the base rail without any issues. That's the neat thing about using a rail riser, you aren't changing anything at all, really. Well, you are, but at the ranges typical of airsoft with a non-magnified optic, you aren't really changing anything.

Measure the exact height difference between your line of sight (NOT to your cheek, just line of sight) compared to without a mask, and then try to find a rail riser that approximately matches that height difference. The one linked is the 'medium' riser, at 0.83 inches. There's also a 1" riser (['high'] (http://www.amazon.com/UTG-1-Inch-13-slot-Hi-profile-Riser/dp/B003TWX8HS/)) and 0.5" (['low'] (http://www.amazon.com/UTG-Profile-Riser-Mount-slots/dp/B003LT3ISI)).

it will work fine low light, and you can get a riser if your mask blocks you from being able to see down it.

Something like this but you dont need one that long really.


EDIT: This one could be good

I'll do the best I can because I have no clue where I got the metal adjustable part from. It was just laying around in my spare parts drawer. You could probably use a long picatinny rail as replacement though. For mounting I used a buttoned cloth strap, A velcro strap and lots of tape but its pretty sturdy as of now.

Would this riser work with this gun?

I want to eventually get a red dot and I use dye i4's.

Why not just mount the scope rings on risers?
