Decent rifle for the price.
Welcome to the forum.
For rear sights you have all kinds  of options.
What do you want it to do and whats your budget?
And how good is yor eye sight?

I like Troy night sights for HD, but tbey aren't cheap.

My first flip ups were UTGs, which were all I  could afford initially.

I picked up one of these:

It's metal and is pretty robust for that price point.

If you're sticking to a budget, then Magpul MBUS rear sights are good to go. There's also waiting for PSA to have their BUIS come in stock again.


If you can call with a fixed rear then you have a ton of low cost options that work great too. Flip up BUIS tend to be more expensive.

MBUS are great sights, and hard to go wrong with.  There's more than a few people who've tested them out, and found that they've performed as well or better than metal BUIS.
