I'm looking for a set of fixed iron sights to replace my mbus gen 2 set.

These look good to me but was curious if anyone has experience with them.

Have been using them for years. Very happy with them and also switched to them from mbus gen 2. For fixed sights they are my go to. Can be hand for about $115 shipped a pair.

Awesome

Maybe a dumb question  but I'm still new to the platform. They have the same height as mbus and would co-witness the same?

Same lower third cowitness.

Love the sights. Only problem is very soft bolts the heads of which like to strip.

Mine seem to be hardened. Maybe old stock had that issue?

They are pretty solid.

Using the proper screwdriver head and technique eliminates this issue....

I used a rear DD fixed sight for a couple of years and it's nice.

I used these sights pretty much exclusively before I got my RDS, they are good to go!!

If parallel screwdriver bits were more common it would be easier.
