    Have done 3 builds so far. The first one used Mil-Spec type removable aluminum sights. The last 2, I have used these. WISH I had put these on the first build I did. They work PERFECTLY with Blitzkrieg Triangle Front Sights, where as the other front sight was NOT Mil-Spec as they claimed. These just ROCK!!!!!

    This sight is an inexpensive option for an excellent light weight, quality built product. I have these on all my rifles and though they are not metal, they do the job. Magpul quality is always excellent.

  • Perfect Companion!
