I'm finally getting into the whole flattop thing and need a rear sight to go with the standard FSB on a 16" upper. I'm leaning toward a Larue because of its simplicity but am open to suggestions in the moderate price range. Folding capability is okay but not a neccessity. Will be used for mainly plinking, perhaps three gun in the future. Optic will be either Eotech or Aimpoint but that's later. |

For a fixed sight, Larue. It's what I have behind my Eotech. It's simple, nothing to flip up or break, solid as heck. It also has a nice FOV since the ears don't get in the way of your sight picture. For folding, Troy. That's going behind/under the ACOG. I like fixed sights but the ACOG doesn't lend itself to a fixed BUIS for obvious reasons. There are other fold downs but after surveying many who are knowledgeable and experienced with other fold down sights, I settled on Troy. ARMS just has too many problems (no flames, YOU may not have problems with yours but I've heard one too many ARMS horror stories from people that have used them and have first hand experience of it failing when they needed it) There may be others besides Troy, do your homework and make your selection. |
