SOLD: $112.00 shipped

Up for sale are a set of Griffin Armament Fail Safe 2 Angle Sights. These are fixed offset sights. These sights offer some pretty tangible benefits if you are dialed into how and when they are used. There is a really thorough review from Breach Bang and Clear, and also a very good review here on M4C, albeit the pictures are no longer available, but it's still a good review.

BLUF (Bottom Line Up Front)
- $120 shipped to your door. (Griffin Armament: $194.95)
- I accept PayPal and USPS Money Orders
- If sending via PayPal, use F&F or pay an additional 4%
- Make me an offer - worst I can say is no
- I have never taken these sights to the field (or range) they have not left the sanctity and protection of my shop

A couple of good benefits up front:
1. Single adjustment point. Rear sight is adjusted for elevation and windage, removing any need to adjust the front sight.
2. The wan't get inadvertently adjusted out of zero. The adjustment is a coin slot (like LaRue fixed rear sight)
3. Accommodates ATPIAL lasers
4. Rear aperture is sized to allow rapid target acquisition and engage targets further out.

Features
- Billet Machined 6061 T6 housings
- Type III Hardcoat Mil-Spec Anodizing
- 17-4 PH stainless steel internals parts
- Fully Adjustable Rear with no tools required
- Fully Shielded front sight post protects against damage from hard use.
- Machined front post in dead center of sight provides rapid acquisition every time.
- Same Cheek weld as standard sights in 12 o'clock plane for rapid transition.
- Coin Slot Flush windage will not get inadvertently moved out of zero.
- Rear Aperture perfectly sized for rapid yet accurate target acquisition.
- Lobed front sight to accommodate military IR lasers

I'll be honest, I was surprised that these were not heavy sights. I expected them to be, but while they are just really well made, they are not adding much weight to your weapon. You do not lose any balance or natural symmetry that you may already have.

No risk of inadvertently hitting a knob and throwing your zero or your windage out of whack. This is very similar to the LaRue fixed sight. Simply take a coin or 2032 battery and adjust.

As you can see from this pic (and others) the finish is absolutely perfect.
