ar15 BUIS..........

and i have learned that BUIS means back up iron sights........:cornut:

so.....i have this bushmaster full rail minimalist and it is going to have sights.....period.

started off thinking magpul flip up spring loaded but after i got to handle a pair i just did not like them....for one thing the smaller peep aperture peep folds into the larger ghost ring when folded....and you have to pick at it a little bit to expose the ghost. Also just not real excited about the spring loaded deployment.

checked out the highway patrol's carbine. do not know the brand but they have a flip sight (no spring) but it is rock solid when it locks and the aperture position is solid and separate so when i do raise it, the ghost peep is the primary.......i like that.

This leads me to Yankee Hill Machine and what they offer.....i have been careful to make sure whatever i look at is "same plane" and to avoid front sights that go on the barrel or the gas block.

would appreciate any opinions.......i am also considering Troy Brand.....

i may eventually go red dot on this thing but i still want some decent irons to play with.

i may co-witness or i just might go quick detach on the red dot........maybe......eventually........

i do not want to sink a ton of money in it at this stage of my life....but i do want to enjoy it. Most of the sights i have looked at on amazon are the cheap chinese stuff.......and it would seem highly questionable.
