    I have been using the flip up polymer rear sights on my 6720 without any problems for nearly two years now.

    Yep. Same issue here. Sight picture just doesn't look as good as my Troys. Considering pulling them off my rifle and looking for something else. Wish they would just throw a metal aperture on there.

    The only issue with my Mbus g2, was they required alot of left windage too zero. Why is that a problem? Cause sight picture through a lower 1/3 optic looks slanted.

    The rear mbus needed it on both an f marked front sight and a front Mbus mounted on a kmr.

    I had the exact same problem on a Centurion rail - it turned out that the rail wasn't machined properly.

    My brother experienced this on his carbine with a DD Lite Rail II. But he had torqued the attachment screws onto the pic rail like a damn gorilla and it warped the body of the sights. There is such as thing as too tight in the age of thread lockers.

    Glad to know that the problem is not with the product itself

    Anyone had any issues with the actual fitment of the sights on the rail? I just got a pair of Gen 2 to put on my Aero Precision upper and they wont fit.

    Take the screw out and start the sight from the end of the rail tapping it on with a rubber mallet or something similar. The first installation is usually pretty tight fitting.

    Okay, that's exactly what I needed to know. I didn't want to force them on if they weren't supposed to be that tight. Thank you!
