Thats kind of like asking what sort of shoes you should buy. A lot can depend on what you will be using them for and even more will depend on your own prefference. My personal suggestion would be, if you are putting a magnified scope over the site and/or if you like using the small apprerature, get the #40L. If you are using a got optic or the BUIS alone, get the #40 or #40A. There is a lot of info on these sites here... look around a while and I am sure you can make an informed decision.

40A2 if you like the big aperture to be the default, 40L if you want the little one.

Yep, looks like normal apertures. I like the regular #40. www.adcofirearms.com/acc/arms.cfm?page= |

40A2. I tried the 40, and the hacked off small peeper looked wierd to my eyes. I like how they default to the larger aperture, though, which is IMHO better.

It looks weird to my eyes as well, but I need that cut aperature to clear the bottom part of my TA01. The regular aperature would be a "no go." |

I almost never use the large aperature. I love that 40L. It's so unobtrusive and it defaults to the small aperature.

I bought a ARMS 40 just to find out that my front post was a bit too low. It's a bushmaster LEO M4 Carbine. So, if you have the same rifle, you may want to preorder the $5 taller front post.

Don't let the 40L small aperture get you down. It took about 4 minutes for me to push out the pin, unscrew the assembly, take off the small aperture, screw it back on and push the pin back in. Mine is on a 9mm AR so I only needed the large aperture and thats what I have now
 Very easy to do. I am not saying that the 40L is for everyone, but don't let the default to the small hole make your decision for you. It is a reversible condition  Hope this Helps, Debo I am Debo and I approve this message. |

How long does it take to change from small to large aperatures?\

The same amount of time it takes with any other AR - just flip it. I've got 2 #40s and I love em. However if I were to do it again I'd get the 40Ls. Jack indicated you could get same plane apertures and that feature would make it worthwhile IMHO. |

Should I just go with the A2?
