Archived [ARCHIVED THREAD] - removable gas block with folding front sight?
Posted: 12/17/2010 5:00:33 PM EDT
Not sure if this is the right forum, but here goes
I got my barrel back from ADCO, after having it cut to 14.5 inches and a flash hider perm attached. I used a Rock River removable railed gas block on this build.
will a Yankee hill folding front gas block mounted sight be at the proper height or will I have to put a sight on the Daniel Defense Lite rail?
 The rail sits about 3/8 of an inch higher than the block.

The YH should be correct.  I don't think RRA made their blocks proprietary.

You can do it either way ... get a "gas block" height front site (they are taller) for mounting to the gas block or a "rail" height site for mounting to the lite rail.
