If you decide one day you want the carrying handle you can just buy one separate Clamp it on in place of the scope But you probably never will. You can either remove the front sight and put a gas block in its place which is pretty easy or just leave it there and ignore it sticking up in the bottom third of the glass.
lol, I am 44 and yes, it has already started, I can't see bleep.
You have answered one question I had on the front sight sticking out with a scope.
