I wanted to know who makes fold-down front sights, and where can I buy some? I have a fold-down sight on my Bushmaster Modular Carbine, but have not seen any other brands.

I know that the higher magnification the less of interference there will be, but let's say I mount a 2X-4X magnification Trijicon AGOG, mounted directly to my flat-top?

How do you know that all those views are through scopes mounted directly to flat tops and with regular front sights? I see a dark spot on a few of the views that look like a front sight, but most of them are clear, which could also mean that those scopes are simply mounted on top of a carry handle, or using raised adapter...
