I actually thought it was patina'd metal, and I immediately said "Where the fuck can I get a set like that!"

I just got a set of the Mugpul MBUS for $65 (front and rear).  I like 'em so far.  

PS you know you can adjust the rear aperture to the large one by prying apart the reticle at the top of the sight, right?

I lie it. It seems very solid and sturdy. I have to wait until next week to shoot it though.

You should never focus on the rear sight or you'll turn to stone. Or something like that.

Well, after your thread yesterday where you said you didn't have one, then said you couldn't figure out how to switch apertures with the one you had, after you said you didn't have one....

I like mine. I felt the rear aperture was a little shiny, so I scuffed it down some.

You got a great deal for both front and rear for $65.

I pass; as much of a Magpul Kool-Aid drinker that I am; I prefer metal on my sights, so i went with a YHM BUIS and plan to swap the front sight block with a YHM one as well.

I went back to the gun show and got it today. My wife wasn't happy about dragging here there this morning but she had the money.
ETA I didn't add in that thread I was looking at the brochure.

It was on sale but the same vendor still has a fairly good combo deal.  Link to Superior Defense Solutions $80 package deal.  They seem to have raised the shipping charge by $1 as well; I got my set for $70 shipped.

True.  I paid $180 for a set of Troy front & rear BUIS.  I paid $65 for my MBUS set.  You're basically paying 1/3 of the cost of Troys ....

How do you figger that?  Honest question –– and like I said, I have Troys, ARMS, Midwest and Magpul sights.  I don't go into harms way as a vocation so maybe I'm not seeing a 300% increase in quality from the Magpul to the Troy sights.

NB regular price for Troy BUIS is normally around $240 for a set ($140 rear, $100 front); I paid $180 because of AIM Surplus's introductory deal.  So figger on paying $240 for a set of Troys instead of $180.

Obviously because it's metal, it's better. Didn't you know?

 



Metal> Everything else. Always.




The high price, the better is it.

I'd prefer instead the YHM Al flip-up sights which can be had for $140 a set from dealers on this website.

Y'all are no fun.

The optic looks slightly canted, but it isn't.
