Hello I'm new to the ar world. I just purchased a complete lower and have a few questions before i decide on how to do the upper. I really like the Daniel defense v2 upper. Is the front sight removable for if down the road I want to add an eotech sight or is there a better way to do that?

most people leave the front sight as a backup with a red dot sight.

I would leave the front iron sight on the DD-V2 if me...or find a differant upper (w/o the standard front iron sight) that has a gas block/rail already installed. That way you can add your own 'flip-up' front sight (buis)of your choice w/o having to remove anything.

Best advice I can give you is if you want a standard A2 FSP then order the upper you listed, if you don't want one, order an upper with a low profile gas block installed and no front sight. Do it right the first time. And for the life of me I still don't understand why people want their A2 FSP gone. It doesn't interfere with optics.

I agree, the fsp is the best way to go as far a durability and as a gas block. If you want a longer rail look into a v1 upper ,or the middy v5 without the fsp


Because if you want a longer rail thats not an fsp, shaving it down is the best way I think.

Thanks for clarifying that. I was assuming if I added an eotech sight etc the front sight would interfere. Thanks for the help
