    Yup, I'm liking that rear sight. I got my nephew a 6920, and this may be just the ticket to go behind his Aimpoint for a fixed BUIS.

    I'll snag one for him and we'll play with it.

    Cross bolts are heat treated 4140 phosphate coated screwed into a stainless helicoil . This is how we attach all our sights .
    Thanks

    I've personally never had any of my MI sights have issues, nor have I ever had a student with a MI sight have any issues. They are not gucci, but they work well.

    Very cool.

    I was in the market for a fixed rear sight and was going to buy one from another manufacturer that makes a good unit that I have multiple of, but I recently bought an MI QD mount and MI cantilever riser for my Aimpoint PRO and am impressed with it.

    Looks like I'll be grabbing an MI rear sight now too.

    Thanks

    Those look well made and well though out. I will snag a rear for sure.

    Since the front uses a standard A2 post and the rear uses a standard A2 aperture they can all be upgraded with a wide variety night sights.

    I currently use the DD A1.5s where applicable but I'm liking that rear sight. Looks like a great alternative for a pretty sleek fixed rear sight. The front looks good too, but I'm still a pinned FSB guy.
