Really dumb question, but how usable would "low real-estate" (meaning taking up as few slots as possible) iron sights be, mounted solely to the upper receiver?
Example: Upper receiver group, with a flat top, neither FSB nor 12 o'clock rail, rear sight mounted as far aft as possible, front sight mounted as far forward, and (with a lot of luck) a T1 or T2 between them?
Not a pressing issue, just curious. Seen more than one setup where there've been absolutely no provisions for a front sight, and was wondering how well this might work in a pinch.
