The Eotech generally just tightens to the rail on your upper reciever, however it is best if you have a riser mount for that specific unit.
I use the LaRue Tactical ECOS Eotech mount. You simply tighten the Eotech unit to the mount and then you have one unit that mounts to the upper reciever via a throw lever that secures the unit to the weapon. This also gives you enough rise to procure your iron sights in the bottom 1/3rd of your field of view, the way it should be, since the Eotech is a parallax free optic.
Check out LaRue Tactical's website and look for the ECOS mount. You'll see how easy the concept is.
A couple of the Eotech models have the ARMS throw levers already installed. 553 I believe.
I have personally used this combo in combat, and it is by far the best thing for long distance targets. We were forced to go to the Elcan 1 to 4 powered sight and that thing is worthless in any situation, the Eotech combo is amazing, love it.
