I saw those on Troy's site. I was thinking of killing two birds with one stone and trying those with the diamond rear reticule.

La Rue knock offs. IMHO

Will the Howe/ CSAT sight fit on it?

Umm, no.

The Troy is clearly just an evolution of their folding sight as it retains the same details and features of that product

AFAIK any aperature that would work with the folding sight will work with the fixed as they both use the same part.

LaRue did not invent the fixed rear sight. Just as Al Gore did not invent the internet.

I know of no aftermarket apertures that fit Troy rear sights. Troy is coming out with night sights soon to in front and back. In my experience with night sights on ARs it's best to not have the tritium in the rear sight.

I was more excited about their fixed FRONT sight offering. Unfortunately, it is available only in the HK configuration and they have no plans to offer it in an M-4 configuration.

Mirror Sight makes a "Diamond aperture" but those might be considered OEM perhaps?

GotM4 - I've been looking at these for a few weeks now on their site. Did you order them directly from Troy or did you get them from a store (if so, which one ;))?
