These little suckers are small but I have not seen any weight specs on them. I am guessing they weigh in with the lightest of flip sights, GEN 2 MBUS.
GandR lists the 300m micro rear as about 1.2oz.

Anybody measured the 600m rear and the micro front sight?
Thanks

For comparison (courtesy of SPQR476):

GEN2 MBUS:
Front: 1.16 oz
Rear: 1.29 oz

MBUS PRO:
Front: 1.52 oz
Rear: 1.79 oz

Troy:
Front: 1.56 oz
Rear: 1.76 oz

I haven't weighed them, but KAC has them listed:
600m Micro Rear (http://www.knightarmco.com/portfolio/micro-rear-flip-sight/?cate_cm=commercial&term=sights-military&features=micro-rear-flip-sight)
Micro Front (http://www.knightarmco.com/portfolio/micro-front-flip-sight/?cate_cm=commercial&term=sights-military&features=micro-front-flip-sight)

Thank you. Conflicting specs on the 300m rear micro from GandR lead me to question KAC's 1.5oz listing for all three sights.

I found this video after posting; the guy weighs the front and rear 200-600m at 09:50.

Front micro: 1.3oz
Rear 200-600m micro: 1.8oz

Update:
I found and weighed the set
KAC Micro 300m rear: 1.5oz.
The KAC Micro front: 1.35oz.
