Hi All,

A quick question.  I have a ~2000 Bushy M4 and as I've been reading, it does not have an F marked front sight base.  I recently added a Henderson Def. flat top upper and YHM low profile rear flip.  From what I am reading here, I need to change the front sight post.  Can you tell me if I need a taller post or shorter post?

Thanks in advance,

If anything you would need a taller (.040") pin.
Bushmaster has them.

I would probably try it as is just to see what I had.

The downside to running the taller pin is that if it wants to live above the protection of the FSB ears, it may get damaged.

Thanks for the reply.  I see that Bushy has them for $5.50.  $6.50 shipping, LOL.

.04 doesn't seem like a whole lot.
