Overview

This flip-up sight set is built for AR-15 platforms using 1913 mil-std rails, with a front sight intended for free-float handguards rather than gas blocks. The metal-reinforced polymer construction keeps the profile compact while providing a practical option for hunters and shooters who want folding sights that stay out of the way until needed. The rear sight uses the same metal dual apertures found in the A.R.M.S. #40L, supporting both close-quarters and longer-range aiming applications. With folded heights of .600" at the front and .610" at the rear, it offers a low-profile setup for rifles carried in the field or run with optics.

Considerations & Trade-offs

The front sight is intended for free-float handguards and is not designed to be mounted on gas blocks.
Folded dimensions are compact, but the front and rear sight heights differ slightly, so fit and sight picture should be checked with your setup.
The polymer construction is metal-reinforced, which keeps weight-conscious use in mind, but it is not all-metal.
The rear sight uses dual apertures, which adds flexibility for different shooting distances but also means a slightly more involved sight picture than a single-aperture design.
