My 6720 is losing it's MRO and I wanna go with a fixed rear sight. Has anybody tried these before and if so what did you think?

I had one years ago, it was nicely made.  I didn't know they were still around.

I have had good experiences with CNC Gunsmithing in the past.

No info on their carry handles.

They're great.

I bought one a little over a year ago.  It is well made, and I like it overall.  The only thing I don't care for are the attachment knobs.  There's nothing inherently wrong with them, but they do seem/feel sort of cheap.

I used an A2 aperture when I installed the sight assembly, as the A1 version doesn't get along with my crappy eyes.  The A2 is wider, so you lose some windage adjustment, but that shouldn't be an issue unless the rifle is really wonky.

The detachable A1 carry handle is outstanding.  Can the attachment knobs be changed?  I have a lightweight, k.i.s.s. build, in mind, to favor the ladies in my family.  The A1 handle with A2 aperture is exactly what I’m thinking about.  A stripped A1 handle lends itself to be Cerakoted.

I'm mostly certain that they could.  It would just be a matter of matching the threads on the the posts.  I seem to remember reading a something on this site about someone who had made his own by turning down the knobs from a standard carry handle.

I'm pretty sure the posts are standard off a mil-spec carry handle and the steel knobs would fit.

They are. I switched out the originals for standard knobs. The originals are kind of flimsy.  I got mine from SAW.
