wanting to attach a red dot scope with my existing rifle scope

[Ksgunguy]

Hi All,

I have a Vortex PST 6-24x50 FFP on my current 308 AR and want to also attach a Red dot scope on the side. need some recommendations on how to attach it. 

 

thanks in advance

few companies make platforms that attach like a scope ring to your scope tube. some rings offer a top cap with a railed section. you can get a 45 offset rail section, or if your handguard allows it you can mount a rail section at 45 near the from of the rcvr.

any links on mounts I could use?

surfing on my phone, kinda a pain. GG&G make the scope mount and a 45 mount. Midwest Ind. and yhm both make 45 mounts as well off the top of my head. I have a PRI freefloat tube and mounted a factory rail section at 45 for my little dot sight. seems to work well. you can see it right at the front of the scope.

Yet to use it but this is how I got mine set up fast fire II with MWI 45* mount
