Looking for a folding front sight for a FF rail that uses the standard AR front sight post.

Opinions please.

I'm curious to know why you want the standard front sight post.

I'm not him, but I like the ones that use standard front sight posts because I commonly carry a tool that will adjust them, or in exreme cases, I can use a nail or the bullet tip to turn it. The Troy needs an AK front sight tool to adjust (couldn't use a cartridge case) or a pair of special needle nose pliers, neither of which I always have on me while shooting.

Also, if I want to use an XS big dot, or other tritium sights, I can.

Your choices are:

Samson flip up
PRI flip up (they make a rail mounted one)
YHM flip up
Midwest Industries flip up

For the ease of being able to use a single tool to make adjustments as well as other sight post options.
