Just got some flip up FRONT sites for my rail from MI. Do you install them where they fold towards the rear when closed?

I mounted mine with velcro so they are quick detachable. I have mine mounted right on top of my EoTech.

I would install them so that you have to flip them forward.

+1.

Flip towards front, fold towards rear.

In my, high-drag, low-speed opinion.

Looks like MI recommends installing so it folds to the rear.

Same one I bought, didn't have a pic of it mounted where I bought them.

Mount front and rear on the side rail so you can shoot gangsta

It does if you snag something.
