Wondering if anyone is using this type of configuration. You can normally run a red dot on the top of the LPVO or a side mount. I have been using the side configuration for a while now. Turning the rifle while keeping a check weld seems more stable and faster on target. In comparison to, popping my head up to use the red dot. Thoughts on this?

I don’t run a secondary optic but if I did I like this setup vs a top mount

I would use this set-up too, but on the other side as I’m right handed.
Its not to expensive to do. Cheap side mount from Amazon that mounts to top rail. A used RD that can handle 5.56 ammunition. Thats where I started. I made the mistake of buying a close RD mount and could not clear my LPVO mount.
Because Im lefty scum.
eeew! 
top mount is the only way if you’re using it passively for night vision.
Very true. This particular rifle is not set up for passive aiming.
I don’t use a secondary, just make sure your LPVO is good at the 1x. I am still a fan of the RT6 which is older but still ranks high on the interwebz
I recently tried out a 45 deg red dot on my Frankenrifle, I liked it. The red dot was a bit big and couldn’t easily get to the power switch, so I’ll probably get a smaller cheap reflex or a shake awake type.
