How easy is it to disassemble with that rail on top? Seems like a reasonable way to get a red dot on an otherwise unwelcoming platform, but I like to keep my guns clean, so if it's a pain to take apart I dunno if it's worthwhile.

Not difficult at all, MagWedge provides a pin that replaces the original takedown pin for the cover and then the whole rail can be pivoted upwards to remove the cover and bolt. If I had to do it again, with the way I mount it and with just a red dot the rail is overkill and a little heavy. With this kind of setup I'd go with one of the mini-rails out there that just replaces the rear sight.
