ar 15 back up sight help

[skeeterboud]

1st!! I am not an ar/msr person, and know very very little of them.

i got a dpms ar 15 for Christmas, and want to put back up sights on it. but!!, the gas block rail is lower than the rear rail. I'm having a hard time finding sights made for this. any recommendations?

Need gas block height front sight. Rear your choice but your primary sight matters which rear.

Been a while since I had one in my hands but I recall a 45* offset set of iron sights that were easy to put on target for close range fast acquisition.

God bless and happy hunting.

That's what I have on my 6.8 AR... Trijicon 3-9X40 on top and BUIS on a 45 degree offset. BUIS are tritium and pop up very nicely in low light conditions... Only thing I ever shot with the BUIS is a cat and a coon...

Let me check my box o’ parts. I may actually have one left over from my first build.

If I don’t get back to this thread send me a PM reminder.

Reflex?

How about a reflex sight?
You don't have to buy a $400 EoTech 512.
IMO the Sight Mark ultra shot plus reflex sights are just as nice & under $100
I'm assuming it's a flat top?
God bless!

thanks for the help. I ordered the 'gas block height' front and normal rear Samson set up from opticsplanet. should work!!
