In my opinion a tad high for my liking, I tried using my aro for a shotgun but even the lowest mount is kinda high on a pic rail

Nice! Do the iron sights work through the riser?

Same reason there's optics on Duty/Tactical handguns. They're faster to acquire, more precise, obscure way less of the target, easier to use in low light, allow for natural target focused/both eyes open shooting, etc.

Jpense pas non.... Je crois que la mire est plus rapide sans un optic.

Here's a video from Ben Stoeger (phenomenonal and decorated competition shooter). He is speaking about red dots on pistols, the benefits are even better on long guns because you have the benefit of a cheek weld to align your eye with the optic. Sage Dynamics also has many videos on why RDS are superior and speaks on it from a tactical point of view. https://youtu.be/-FDPx0clR10?si=Klf0wzyJleq8mZh7

Looks great. I put the vortex viper sg on mine. The dot aligns with the front sight and its nice and low.

Its such a fun gun. I blew through 50 rounds of low recoil challenger slugs a few weeks back and it was the most fun I've had in years.
