Ok guys im fixing to build my first AR.... YAY Anyways i will be buying a package deal as far as the upper goes, from grant at grtactical. It is a flat top and im assuming has the A2 front sight (he listed parts and had "A2 FS" listed so im assuming that means A2 front sight).
I have been reading alot about sights here lately and have read about a F milspec sight base, and then i have read about differences btwn A1 and A2 front and rear sights and its all getting really confusing. I dont know what will work properly or be correct to use with an A2 front sight since it would seem that it would be different from a front sight that came on a flat top gun.
SO what rear sight will be appropriate, without any complications to work with a Flat top and an A2 front sight (assuming thats what it has)? I have been looking at the M1S and the LMT tactical rear sight. I like these set ups but i am also open to a folding rear sight (troy folding battle sight)... i just really dont know what will work with this setup as i got very confused.
Please help me figure this out or just tell me what sights will be appropriate. I will be adding either an Aimpoint or an Eotech later , but first i will need a rear sight.
Thank you all for your help.
