I have an ARMS 40, and a MBUS, both have worked out well for me.  How much and what kind of shooting do you do?

I'm just finishing up my first build and would have to say that from past experience Troy makes the best out there. BravoCompany is selling them for $119 right now (just off the top of my head). Very low profile and rock steady.

MI makes a solid sight as well and you'd save a little cash but not enough imo to warrant going away from Troy (if you have the 100+ to spend).

Troy then ARMs. I had a MI off a new Stag upper that thought it was cheap crap. It was the flip up rear and had lots of wiggle in the upright position.

I just picked up a GG&G. It seems pretty solid.

Troy is outstanding. I one on my LMT and it repeats with no problem. My CMMG has a ARMS 40L on it and it does just as well. The Magpul MBUS so far has worked well paired with the MBUS front on my Spikes dedicated .22 upper (ST-22).

I just installed a YHM and really like it. Two aperatures and it deploys with a single push of a button. Works for me.

I second YHM. I have them on one of my AR's and they have been solid so far.

I like the Troy BUIS  a lot. Easily worth the money.

I have MI, ARMS,Troy,GG&G....And recently started using Magpul Front and Rear, Great Price, Love how easy they both Deploy.
I am a big fan of the BUIS NOT being in a Locked UP position, To many of my years in the Army told me that a locked in the up right postion would eventually
spell "Broken site". Now I know the MAGPUL is Polymer, But the price is right, the site is extremly light.....I do however prefer the ARMS 40L.

Troy, but there are alot of good ones out there.  Again, do you want a fixed, or folding?

In folding BUIS I've got three Troys, one Magpul MBUS, and one KAC 300m, they all work great but my favorite so far is my new Troy DOA which have a diamond shaped aperture, easier to line up with the front sight.

As for fixed BUIS I only have one which is the LMT which looks like a cut carry handle, there are better lighter ones if you like QD mount check out the LaRue, or regular screw mounts like Troy fixed model, Daniel Defense, and other good brands also.

I would like to try the new KAC micro next if I ever see them available at a good price.
