[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Fixed Front Sight AR Height?

Posted: 4/9/2009 2:00:35 PM EDT

Does anyone know if there are any fixed front sights for the SIG 556?
I have been searching the net with out any success on finding one.

Sig makes one. It comes on their new rifles.
Aurora also makes one that is very close to the original.

Edit- sorry I didn't notice the AR height part.

The front that Midwest Industries sells is compatible with a standard AR rear sight according to the item description.

Is that a flip up or really a fixed front sight?

What type is that? Midwest Industries?

Keep in mind the official Sig stuff is too low line up with AR rear sight.

But with AR height sights you will not have a proper cheek weld.

It's the front sight KNS Precision has been working on. I don't know when it'll be released though.
But according to Gordon at KNS, it is AR height.

What I would really like to have is sights for the 556 like the original SIG 550. The best looking thing besides that that I have seen is the one that MFI is working on. But who knows if and when they will ever be out. I had heard about the KNS front sight awhile back but who knows if and when that will happen.
