Do to my inexperience, my questions here have been pretty disjointed.
I have an S&W MP15 sport which now has a two piece carbine quad rail. I would now like to replace the A2 sight with a rail height gas block. What I do not know is if the end cap is part of the sight assembly. Since the quad rail clamps to it, it seems certain that could be a problem. Mr Mac |

Sorry I missed your question. I am just not very fond of the A2 sight, sort of bulky and clunky. It occurred to me that the rail height gas block was a way to get a little more rail space from the carbine length for not much money to use pair of alloy flip up sights. I admit that there is not a lot of benefit to the mod. Mr Mac P.S. On my other AR, I am going to do a 12" free float and use the pair Magpul flip up sights. |
| Think about cutting down your front sight to a low profile gas block. You end up with a great gas block and can use whatever rail you want. Yes it means spending some money on a freefloat rail, but the railed gas block is not the direction I would go. If you do go that route, then make sure you purchase the proper height railed gas block. |
