Is it normal for a Troy industries front sight to move back and forth a little bit when deployed in the up position? It only moves a tiny bit, and i ha, and ve not noticed any movement when shooting, but i can easily wiggle it with my fingers.   I have not noticed any elevation changes while shooting, but it bothers me because my rear troy industries sight locks up nice, and tight, and seems to have a little spring tension pushing it up, while the front has no spring tension, only the cross bar holding it up.   I got the sights from LaRue with a Stealth upper i bought i don't want to bother them if my front sight is normal.

Yes.  And it's normal on the rear one too.  It's normal on pretty much every folding BUIS I have seen or owned.  And I've owned a lot of them and seen the rest of them.  It's not going to affect anything.
