I love this rifle. Unfortunately, the Command Arms Accessories handle I put on it sucks. My advice: Don't buy the carry handle from CAA. The lesson learned is that if you're going to buy a great rifle, get quality accessories to go with it.

UPDATE: Since I made this video I realized I WAS WRONG! See the link in the annotations for how I screwed the whole thing up. Thanks for watching!

  • Why even leave a video up when you know you made a mistake. Not everyone takes the time to follow links in videos. I've purchased CAA products, and they work

  • @juanriv01 The whole point is that I don't only leave up the videos that make me look smart. I admit when I'm wrong and I state it in the annotations. This is my first experience with CAA., so they may have fine products for all I know. Thanks for watching.

  • Try reversing your sight adjustment. Front sight Down and Rear sight up! I think your best bet is to either buy a bore sight or take it to an FFl dealer/ Gun store to adjust it for you. I hope this helps! Good luck

  • @hartncali When I bought this handle, it was only meant to be temporary until I could afford a better fixed rear sight without the handle. That way I can mount an optic as well. I’ve gotten rid of this handle and am saving up for a new rear sight. I’ll keep the reverse adjustment in mind. Thanks!

  • @GunsKnivesSurvival hey man, google f marked front sight base, that is your problem. F marked is for flat top m4 style guns, but many companies still use standard FSB. I had the same issue, i had to order a .4 taller front sight post from bushmaster and it resolved the issue.

    Hope this helps

  • @dumfart21 Thanks!

see all

  • Bushmaster sells a .040" taller front sight post for this problrm ($5.50). Also works well if you use the improved battle zero. It keeps the sight post from coming up out of the detent.

  • @ZackPorter2010

    You use your front sight for elevation.

  • ahhhhhhhhhh anyone know where to buy a GOOD carry handle for an ar-15 i dont wana red dot and i bought a cheap flip up and found out when i got it it has no up and down only side to side so i couldnt even sight it in..

  • thanks!
