Guys,
I searched for a related thread, but didn’t find anything, so if this has been addressed before, please let me know.
I’m not new to long guns by any stretch, but I am new to the AR-15 platform. I know, way late to the party, right?
Anyway, I recently picked up a Ruger AR556. It came as a flat top with flip-up sights and a crappy Aim Sports 4-32 scope.
The scope is useless. It claims to have an eye relief of 3.5 inches, but it’s far less.
Unfortunately, due to a neck injury (and my glasses) the iron sights are too low for me to use. I need about another 1/2 to 3/4 inch or so. I’ve thought about adding a carry handle (and/or a red dot), but I wonder about their height. If I go with an optic, I would still like to have usable backup sights too.
Since I don’t know much about what is out there, I wanted to get some input from you guys.

Any suggestions?
