Not sure if anyone out there would know the answer to this, but I would like to mount a scope/red dot, and want to use a picatinny adapter such as these:

http://www.amazon.com/Ultimate-Arms-Gea ... KV04JK55SE
but I still want to be able to co-witness some iron sights. It does not appear that the standard issue iron sights would be able to co-witness with the combination of the dovetail converter and scope, what aftermarket iron sights would work? The rear sight isn't really the issue, it's the front sight. What front sight would be able to be attached that would be tall enough to accommodate the rise from the back due to the dovetail converter? Any suggestions? Or do most or all the aftermarket sights already adjust for the rise of the picatinny adapter and would work without any problems?
I'm hoping someone out there can help me with this, I would like to order the adapter and sight, but want to make sure that I have iron sights that can be co-witnessed through the reticle sight I like.
