The TD 415 does not come with sights. They are available but are extra. They are also the proper height for the raised HK 416 rail height.
Other than the buffer and recoil spring ( which are designed for this piston upper ), nothing else comes with it.
That being said this is still a great price if it turns out to be as good as it looks.
I would love to know when they will start shipping!!!!!!![]()

What Happened to the American dream? It came true. You're looking at it.
Thought I had my mind made up on a POF 415 P9SX upper, now I'm not so sure. The TD-415 is very tempting and alittle cheaper then POF. Whats the barrel specs on the TD-415, POF uses 4150 MIL-B-11595 Vanadium alloy (whatever that is) and claims to be 2 times harder then Mil-Spec and Hammer Forged. What is Titan Defense using for barrels? Any info wound be great. Have to place an order soon before the wife finds the money i have stashed...LOL.![]()

I thought initially they would be hammer forged but you're right 416 stainless steel.
The promise of good accuracy and longevity according to Todd on another forum I got a link to from a friend (can't recall). I think the accuracy is obvious, if the life is better than, or as good as, hammer forged/chrome lined that will be a great barrel.
A nitride treated 416 barrel should be incredibly durable and accurate.
Because nitride increases surface hardness, it should make even 416 impervious to corrosion, and wear much better than chrome plating.
I'd rather see more companies offering nitride treated barrels than jumping on the cold hammer forged bandwagon
Obviously, no one will really know what these guns are capable of until they are in circulation and pushed hard

Man, I wish that they would release these uppers.
Im ready to try it out.
Im not impressed, you wanna improve on the hk416 get rid of that charging handle. make it ambi on the upper rail or something.
Someone else can be the guinea pig on this one.
Lets get out of the delusion and get back to reality, people.
Look at all these issues associated with this:
1. This product is a clone which means it is probably reverse engineered.
2. How did this get around the intellectual property rights of HK. Patents expire after 11 years. The HK416 hasn't been out this long.
3. Todd Bailey is connected to this.
4. It already has deviation in the components and materials from a real HK416.
