Keifer,
With the ACOG compact mounted on the carry handle I can still use the iron sights if necessary. However, as I expect the reticle to glow for at least the next 10 years, I'm not too concerned about that.
As far as the dot size on the C-More is concerned, I personally find it easier to pick up than the Aimpoint. I did have the first generation Aimpoint though - I'm told the new model has a brighter dot. By turning up the intensity on the C-More it does appear bigger, although this is mainly due to fringing.
I do not think the ACOG compact would work with the GG&G flip up rear sight on a flat top because you would have to look thru the scope to see the front sight. This would be distorted by the magnification. It works on the carry handle because the mount has an open channel to look through (you are using the iron sights by looking under the scope). This is not ideal because your cheek weld will not be the same. (Note that the C-More on the flat top overcomes this objection).
