I used one of these in the past. Decent quality. Yankee hill also makes one.

Whatever you are willing to put up with, is exactly what you will have.

When your ship comes in. ... make sure you are willing to unload it.

PAYPAL, sucks and I will never use them again. I recommend you do the same.

I have a Wyoming Arms Optic Riser if you are interested, it's not cheap but I would make you a deal on it.

I think most folks use scope mounts like these for ARs. They both raise it up and move the optic forward. The 1.5" is std height and 1.7" and 1.93" are also avail (as well as 1", 30mm, 34mm):

Ex: of an economical Leupold option (Vortex are also good and economical):

Ex: of a more expensive but coveted mount Like a Badger or Geissele:

I wasnt aware of the type of product some of yall posted. Some look to be designed to clamp on the receiver and the handguard picitinny rails.

Re those types, isn't it widely accepted as not a great idea to "bridge the gap" with a mount between the two rails? I have no experience myself but it makes sense as almost every handguard flexes somewhat, and Ive read numerous suggestions against it re accuarizing a rifle. They all mention that it will introduce flyers and randomness to your groupings. To what extent who knows. YMMV

If you’re talking about the Wyoming Arms riser / bridge - it’s pretty much bomb proof.

My rail would break before the Wyo Arms riser did - it’s solid to the receiver.

The flex taboo was a separate ring on the upper, and a separate ring on the rail.

Op - are you looking for an A.R.M.S. Swan Sleeve type rail?
