pdc Posted November 25, 2013 Report Share Posted November 25, 2013 I'm looking for a slightly used set of back up irons for my 308 AR. I'd like a set of fixed sights but flip ups are okay too. American made. Aluminum is preferable. I need the kind that goes on the rail and not a railed gas block. Price needs to be right. Message me if you've got something. Thanks.

sketch Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 You should find some 45' offset and put some solid glass on top!! I went cheap on eBay ( boo!) and paid 45$ for irons still hit center mass at 100 yds all aluminum and adjustable!! That's why they are back up sights ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pdc Posted November 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 These will be my primary sights until I figure out what glass I want up top. Totally don't want to go cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nereus Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 Go eBay. I bought a Yankee Hill Machine for $66 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robocop1051 Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 If you're looking for QUALITY sights... I have set of Troy tritium Dioptic micro battle sights. I bought these directly from Troy when they first came out. They cost a fortune back then. I might be able to cut you a deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oooo!! Devil Robo >:D on one shoulder and…and…and, well there's no angle for unforgiven and the devil is taken, so he's on the other shoulder :banana: . Both ends of the spectrum, insanely expensive backup sights or rugged and affordable functional backup sights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robocop1051 Posted November 27, 2013 Report Share Posted November 27, 2013 Magpul sights are great sights. If you're running backup sights, I can't say there's any one better. For primary sights, they're a little slower to get a good sight picture. The Di-Optic sights take some getting used to. They are stooooopid fast once you get the hang of it. I was going to put mine on a patrol rifle if I ever got around to it. They are excellent "my life depends on it" sights. I think the only faster sights would be the HK416 barrel sight.

pdc Posted November 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2013 (edited) I ended up with a set of Daniel Defense fixed sights. They should fit the bill just right..... Edited November 27, 2013 by pdc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
