need help again...what are the best buis.

i prefer one that goes on the gas block...i think..

i guess from reading some of the back sights habe aperatures that give two different zeros?

i do not really understand any of that...

do any work like the leaf type ak sights where maybe you could zero it at 25 or 50 yards like my ak...then just dial in a number...100yds..200yds..300yds and be somewhat on target? any help is appreciated....mark

PRI, Yankee Hill are some brands that come to mind.

If you are referring to the 2 types of apertures on the rear sights, they are the small and large hole apertures. The large hole are basically used if you are zeroing at short distances 0 to 50 meters, and the small hole is used if you are zeroing at +50 to 100 meters.

I think the elevation dials at the rear will achieve the same purpose.

The Matech BUIS has this feature.

After several weeks of debate I went with the Troy, no regrets.

If you are looking for something that goes on the gas block, GG&G makes a nice beefy BUIS for the front.

If you are looking for something on the rail, then TROY does the job well. For the rear, my personal favorite is the GG&G A2 style. It's priced right, very low profile, beefy & looks great. The Troy rear is also a nice choice. It's a bit more but most people who have them really enjoy them. The only problem I have with the Troy rear is the 2 small spaces that are near the peep hole. You need to get used to those holes because it will slow you down.

What are you talking about?

I just ordered a Troy ( from Lightfighter ), as I am conviced, its my best choice, so where are some holes in it ( besides the apertures, of course ;-))
