So, I got my HWS and magnifier mounted on my AR, but unfortunately, my back-up irons (offset) won't fit on the rail unless they're forward (toward muzzle) of the optics.
To be clear - they'll technically fit on there just fine, but if i put them behind the optics (toward the stock), they'll interfere with a good cheek weld because it pushes eye relief too far forward.
While the solution of putting them forward of the optics is functional, it doesn't exactly give a great sight radius (they sit on the handguard rail - imagine the rear and front sights sitting on opposite ends of your handguard rail).
I welcome suggestions, thoughts, or solutions to this conundrum.
