The nearby image lists some of the main benefits of a 12 o’clock dot (top mounted piggyback red dot sight).
Amoung these benefits, many people particularly find that passive aiming with NVD / NOD, or PPE is more achievable with a top mounted red dot, compared to a canted red dot. A top mounted red dot is also more conducive to shooting from various positions. Many also find switching from scope to red dot and back again easier with a piggyback red dot.
We encourage people to give both canted and top mounted red dot a try, and find a setup that is right for you and your intended usages.
