My colt 6920 has the mbuis rear on it right now. I do not plan to put a rds on it for awhile. Would the money be worth it to buy the lmt rear sight that is adjustable for windage and elevation? Or should I hold off and just pinch pennies until I can buy an aimpoint or acog? I wont be trying to drive it past 300 yds probably. I guess I am just nervous to how the mbuis holds up being flipped up all the time and bouncing around in a pickup daily.
Thanks.
Mbus Gen II is pretty sturdy, even compared to a lot of metal sights. The LMT is nice and so are others like daniel defense and troy. Just depends on your willingness to spend the extra $$.
The MBUIS isn’t bad though I do prefer other options. If you are wanting a fixed option the DD A1.5 is a good choice.
Keep the current rear and save up for an exps
Is the dd A1.5 adjustable for elevation? I had searched it, and wasnt sure if it is or not.
Keep an eye out for a Colt take off carry handle in the EE. You can get them for 50-60 dollars and have a solid rear sight.
If I recall, just the front post, sorry.
No it is not. Have one in hand. that said, for GP I am not certain that I would need if for only getting out to 300. That is me though.
That said, as Markm said, a carrying handle take off would be a nice option as well. Just slapped an old carry handle on an old Bushy I had laying around and am quite enjoying shooting that thing as an irons only range toy.
For straight irons a carry handle is best. Stiffens the upper.
What is the added weight of a removable carry handle?
Why do you need the rear to adjust for elevation?
~8 ounces
Thank you!
Just get the best from the start: http://shop.knightarmco.com/ProductDetails.aspx?ProductID=KM25650
Vltor’s test actually showed that the CH did not help receiver flex. ![]()
At a minimum you can index a picatinny-topped free float handguard with it ![]()
That’s true too.
MBUS Pro…steel, no tool adjustment and very small footprint. They’re my new favorite!
I have troy flip ups,troy fixed rear and Colt carry handles. If it is irons only then I prefer the carry handle.
Look at the Burris AR 332
