[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Folding BUIS question

Posted: 4/9/2006 7:39:00 PM EDT

I have always used an LMT buis on my rifles but picked up an ACOG TA31F Saturday and am in need of a folding BUIS.

Now I know there are many models of folding sight from which to choose but I would like one that uses the small aperture as the default setting or can at least be raised and lowered with the small aperture chosen.

Can anyone tell me which sights (if any) can be folded with the small aperture chosen? I think the YHM folding sight can but was curious if there are any others

(edited to add that I did perform a search read the tacked threads, but didn't find an answer to this question)

I have the yhm and you can fold it with either one.

The 40L will work. The KAC 300m will work, and there may be others. What mount is the ACOG in?

The Matech fits under the ACOG...and is small aperature only.

It's mounted in the TA31 mount. Thanks for the help on this one

I was running a matech before I sold the ACOG to you.

To my knowledge, the only BUIS that will flip up with the small app are the ARMS #40L, KAC 600m, KAC 300m, Matech, and GG&G MAD. Maybe the new Wilson Combat and DPMS weird named one too?

I have the standard ARMS 40 and I just took the aperture off and switched it around. It works just fine even if the concave side is on the wrong side.
