Will the 20 MOA 1.375” Uni-Mount with a 2.5-20x50 NX8 clear the rail of an AR?

I’m actually running a JP handguard without a rail on top on this rifle so I assume it would but you never know.

If I move it to a rifle with a full rail will it still fit.

Would the 1.125” fit this rifle? I assume the 1.125” will not clear a traditional handguard and rail?

Pay no attention to the cheap Brownells Mount. It was free. Just acting as a stand in 😃

The A191 1.375 20MOA will clear the top rail of an AR handguard, so you'll definitely be good to go with the JP handguard. If you'd like, I can snap some pics when I get home tomorrow afternoon.

I picked up the 2.5-20 NX8 last week and have it mounted to the Spurh hunter unimount. I liked it so much I then ordered the 4-32x50.
The only issue for mounting that I can see is using the bigger oversize tactical rings. You only have about a 1 3/8" for mounting on the bell side.

Good info. Thank you. I’m using the NF 4 screw rings partly for that reason.
