That's what I'm looking for. Now, how do I get there.
Right now I'm running the standard A2 front sight with an Ashley Outdoor (XS) same plane rear aperture. The AO/XS same plane rear ap is just a bit large. Same with the standard A2 front sight post (too wide) on a 16" carbine.
I'd like a little more precise sight picture with the irons, but don't want to go with hooded apertures, etc. The standard 20" sight picture should work just fine. The problem is duplicating them on a 16" carbine with the same plane rear aperture.
1. What front sight mimics the 20" sight picture on a 16" carbine?
Here's where I've started:
www.bushmaster.com/shopping/dcm/9349056cg52.aspWill any of these works and are there any other options out there? What width do I need?
2. How do I get the 20" rear aperture specs in a same plane unit?
Here is what I'm currently looking at:
www.accuracyspeaks.com/parts.htm (Apparently they'll cut these per your specs.)
4. .052 X .059 Rear Aperture: Uses the M-14NM sight sizes, allows the same zero with either aperture.
5. .040 X .040 Rear Aperture: Undersized to allow redrilling to custom diameters.

Obviously I'll have to measure the A2 apertures, but that pretty well known. Heck, the AS guys could probably give the specs off the top of their heads.
Are there any other options that I'm missing?
TIA
