    If this is what you're refering to:

    You'd be far better off just getting the taller front sight post from Bushmaster.

    I've been researching swapping front sight bases and I've found it's far more
    trouble than it's worth. You can end up with zeroing problems because of
    an improperly indexed barrel or even a ruined barrel. It just ain't worth it.

    The only place I've found that can do it is ADCO, and they won't respond to
    E-Mails.

    The taller front sight post from Bushmaster is the best fix.
