    What's your favorite BU rear sight?

    I just bought a Mid 16 Model Zero Bravo Company mid-length, and now I'm scratching my head as to what rear sight to put on it. I ended up ordering the Daniel Defense A1.5 rear sight, but I looked hard at the LaRue QD unit as well.

    I read some threads on the subject, and I'm thinking a lot of it is personal preference.

    What BU rear sight do you guys favor, and why?

    I recently posted a poll on BUIS and got a lot of good responses. I ended up going with the KAC Micro's, with 600M rear. I like this sight because I shoot pretty close to NTCH and a smaller aperature works well for me. It is pretty much the lowest profile (height and width) sight you can get if you're going to run optics. I also really like the fact that I can adjust my rear for POA/POI out to 600M. I don't know if/when I'll ever need to, but I like having the option. It's a solid piece of gear, and you get to say, "I own KAC stuff!"

    What's the link to your poll? I must have missed it when I did my search.

    Is it your "MBUS vs. Troy" thread?

    That's the one. Kind of odd that I ended up picking neither of those two options, but that's the beauty of this site and the info here. Several folks in that thread recommended the KAC as a best option. I looked at some in-person and decided they were right.

    while I am still new to the AR platform, I picked up a Matech sight from a forum member. It has a smaller aperture opening and seems to help me focus on the front post and is low profile enough not to bang my knuckles when manipulating the charging handle..as I am left handed.
