Anyone have experience with this unit?  Good? Bad?

Works as intended.
Locks in the up or down position.
Can use any AR-15 sight post you may want to.

Only downfall: semi-glossy finish might not match your old FSB.

The YHM flip up is really nice and very affordable. I'm a big fan of YHM stuff so you really can't go wrong with them.

I didn't really nice any gloss problems and it seemed to match the rest of the weapon just fine. I replaced the fixed front sight on my Rock River recently and took a pic for comparison.   We put on the YHM FF carbine tube as well so that's not bad for around $180.

Hope this helps...

I bought one for my Bushy and am OK with it.  It has a little more play in the locking mechanism than I'd like and it got marked from slapping the top of the gas block when folding it down.  Solved the problem by putting a piece of high temp rubber tubing around the sight tower.  Works fine now.  Would still like to find a PRI at a good price.
