Can someone recommend the best sight configuration for a standalone M203?

The quadrant sight does not look like it would work with the FD203, given the rail mount is 90 degrees off, and while the front leaf sight does look like it would work, I'm not sure which rear sight is supposed to be paired with it.

What are you guys using on this setup?

Thanks


FD203


Quadrant Sight Obverse:


Quadrant Sight Reverse:


Leaf Sight:

I have the LMT stand-alone, but use the ladder rear with a magpul mbus front.

to be honest the mbus is just what I had laying around, and fold flatter.

looks something like this, I have the barrel mint but concept is the same

Any generic AR front sight works in conjunction with the leaf sight.

As for quadrant sights, you'll either need a carry handle to mount it to, or a rail mount quadrant sight which are harder to find.

There are a few red dot options out there. non of them are cheap.

I've got a KAC leaf with fixed AR front sight on my LMT...

My FD203 has an Aimpoint T2 for direct impact projectiles (although it's sitting too low to be usable and needs a riser added).

If I were to get a quadrant sight for a standalone, I'd get the KAC 2-hole version which mounts to the M203's receiver:

That way, if you move the launcher over to an AR, you'll keep your zero.

You could probably use both on the FD203 simultaneously if desired.
