Two reasons I wouldn't do it.
It shortens your sight radius between the front and rear. Have you tried using the gun with the sights mounted like this? I would think the rear peep would be really small and hard to pickup. May or may not be a big deal for you.
I always understood that bridging the upper receiver and the handguard with an optic or sight wasn't a good idea due to possibility of movement between the two.
If it works for you, great.

“Laws that forbid the carrying of arms disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes. Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man.” –Thomas Jefferson, quoting 18th century criminologist Cesare Beccaria in “On Crimes and Punishment”, 1764
