    Even the Army, which is almost always well be hind the civilian shooting world, has officially labeled them Back Up Iron Sights. That’s a clue.

    So did the rest of the world, a quarter of a century ago. Move on to bigger and better things. Several of the instructors I train with don't even have irons on the guns at all, they back up their LPVO's with MRDS and call it a day.
