I't thinking about getting a vortex spitfire to put on a 9mm carbine. Can I use a ARMS mount with this scope?

Thanks

I just got one for $239 black Friday deal, I'm not sure what your wanting to do but I think the only other mount made for them is the American Defense quick detach mount.

I wanted it so the mount would let the SPARC co-witness with my sights.

My SPARC came with a mount and a spacer so it can be set up to co-witness with the sights or lower one third without the spacer.  The SPARC II does not come with the original 2x magnifyer but I think you can still buy them.  With regard to the Vortex Spitfire, Burris has similar 3x AR 332 and 5x AR 536 red dot sights that appear to co-witness with a base to center of lens height of 1.6".  Call SWFA customer service and they should be able to tell you what you need to know with regard to mounting options and co witnessing for the different red dot sights they sell.

I do know the spitfire comes with a riser that can be taken out so you two height options.

I have the SPARC mounted with the factory mounts and it co-witness fine. I am looking for a ARMS mount that will do the same.

Thanks
