Which EoTech for a FSB?

[promiseofwar]

I have a Daniel Defense M4V1 with a FSB. I have been shooting with the fixed iron sights and was wondering which EoTech works best with this set up. Anyone have any experience with this situation? Thanks!

I would recommend an XPS with the LT110 mount. This will keep that fixed rear sight low in the window and out of the way of the reticle.

Im going to say any of them will work depending on whether or you want a co witness or lower third co witness. What will change is how you sight in on your target.
Since you can only focus on one plane at a time, when using irons your focus will be on the front sight post. With a rds or holo sight your focus is on the target.

Thanks ASP785 and uncle money bags. I was thinking a lower 1/3 cowitness. My first gun with the FSB.

Shameless plug but I have a Larue mount in the gear classifieds for $90, which is exactly what I bought it for from ASP785. Just doesn't work well with my magnifier.

How come it didn't work out for you?

There isn't enough room on the upper receiver to use my Troy BUIS, Larue FTS magnifier mount, and the Eotech. If I didn't have the FTS magnifier, it would be pretty perfect.

The EoTech EXPS series offers a 7mm raised base to give you a lower 1/3 cowitness with iron sights.
It also has a quick detach flip lever.

If you're going to keep the fixed rear, Id go lower 1/3. I really prefer a flip up rear with an absolute cowitness though.

I ended up getting another BCM. Nothing against the DD, but I really missed my other BCM so I got the FDE version 14 RECCE
