Hi Bradd,
They are the correct flat top height (machined .032 taller), although they are not marked "F"

to my knowledge only Colt and LMT offer this in the commercial market
(obviously FN offers it for the M16A4)

My LMT FSB is stamped "F".  I will post a pic when I get some extra time.

Here is a pic of my "F" stamped LMT FSB.  It is very hard to see but trust me, it is there.  If you have some type of photoshop software you can zoom in on the area circled in red to get a better view of it.



ETA:  Here is a closer look at the "F".

thanks for the picture!
The Colts and FNs I have seen where stamped on the opposite side.

Is it a stamp or a forging mark?

Now I have to double check my inventory for a stamp

Either way --- they zero with milspec BUIS


EDITED TO ADD: Looks by the larger picture, it is stamped.
