Iron sights for AR

[Vaquero]

I'm just not liking the red dot a whole lot.
Looking for a decent set of irons to put on my sportical, gas block mount on front.
I'm hoping for some suggestions or maybe someone has a set for sale.

Thanks.

I like Troy, just make sure the front and rear are compatible heights. Magpul makes good stuff on the cheap, but I don't know if they make one to go on the gas block, which would melt it IF it were even a compatible height.

They do - Magpul came out with a folding steel set, the Magpul MBUS Pro.



For rear-sights, I've loved the Matech ever since a buddy recommended them; I like the ability to change distance immediately:

I just listed the Magpul Pro Front in the Commercial Classified section today

DD A1.5 rear sight fixed and Troy folders are two that I've used and would recommend to anyone. Both are BUIS without elevation but are very light and quite utilitarian.

I like the fixed sights for irons vs folders. If I'm in a tactical situation with paper, watermelons or cans advancing at me I don't have time to flip up sights! lol

I have used the Troy fixed sights (F&R) and the Daniel Defense A1.5 rear. I like both.

If I'm running a scope I don't usually run backup irons with it. I know, weak, I'll probably die in the zombie apocalypse for my "non-tactical ness" but I'll take my chances.

I like Troy the best.
