So I just installed this new handguard on my AR. Before, I had a drop in quad rail which I had that front sight attached to. Now, I have a small picatinny segment attached to this handguard and the sight on that. What I found when I tried to get it dialed in today is that the front sight, sitting on that picatinny segment, is quite a bit higher than the rear sight. So much so that I don't think I can adjust it down far enough to shoot at POA. What can I do to fix this? is there some sort of riser for the rear sight?
That front sight was a royal pain to get on anyhow... the slots in the handguard are too narrow so I had to grab a file and grind down the nuts so they fit through. Very close to just giving up and getting a scope/red dot here, but it's not in my budget right now.
Thanks for the suggestions,
