You can not use the Magpul sight on the front of the model 3H as the gas block rail will get to hot and melt the sight. You can use any steel front folding sight that is designed to be mounted on a RAILED GAS Block.
The model 3H gas block rail is set up so that a proper front sight will work with any flip rear sight.

The Magpul front flip up sight will not work with the Model 3H. the front sight is designed to work on the same plane as the rear sight(rail height). Our gas block sits .250" below the rail on the receiver and the proper height front sight needs to be used(gas block height). Also, as someone mentioned before the Magpul front flip up sight can not be used on gas blocks due to the potential for them to melt.
We recommend utilizing the Samson front flip up sight which has been tested to work with our gas block and will flip down without touching the hand guard cap.
