Archived [ARCHIVED THREAD] - problems with flip up rear sights on a flattop?
Posted: 5/17/2003 12:42:41 AM EDT
I heard somewhere that you need a taller front sight if you use an ARMS #40 rear. Do other flip up rear sights have this problem? What other flip up rear sight should I use if I need to use a standard height front sight?

Ive had both an ARMS 40 back up sight and ARMS 38 rail on Bushmaster uppers with no need for a high front sight.

Bushmaster recommends switching to the .040" taller front sight post when using the ARMS#40. I don't see what difference .040" makes, especially when you can just raise your existing front sight post up that minute amount.

I did change mine out for a few bucks though, just to be sure. [:D]
