Dude, thank you so much for your insightful video!!! Although I have shot AR rifles in the past, since the 80"s I dare say, I finally was able to buy my first one last year!!! Your vid is so cool and helpful. Thanx again and BTY, I bought a Rock River Arms Operator last year and this NRA Life Member has been in shooting range heaven since!!! Thanx again!!! The Candyman

@ni4ni07

glad it helped

Dumb question...I just mounted a troy folding rear, and I have an A2 standard front, they will work together correct? Thanks.

[GunWebsites]

@NoiseMostBeautiful

yup, should be a perfect match

I have seen fixed rear sight UTG version at amazon for $20 are they any good?

[GunWebsites]

Sorry I am not familiar with them

A quality sight (front OR rear) will be over $100 so I doubt a $20 item will be near the quality

[zx6me1983]

LOOK AT THOSE RETAIL PRICES!!! WHOA..

[OGKILLa9365]

are those real guns or are they missing parts

[TheManFromAlaska]

Good overview, but I wish you would have show the Yankee Hill flip up rear sight. Do you have any opinions on it? Thanks -- TMFA

[Dsmalldes]

I have a Bushmaster XM-15E2S with removable rail. Will the Matech sight work on it?

[theianzway]

I love the matech site...I think you need a better flashlight bud...

I have a colt LEO ar15 with stock fixed A2 front sight and I bought the magpul rear flipup and it doesnt have elevation adjustments and at 100 yards I was shooting the top of 1 5 foot tall taget when I was aiming at the bottom. Now Im running the Matech rear flip up and the only negative I see is the peep hole is a dish and kida shiny so light catches it and you cant see your target too well.

I'm I the only one that's not gonna pay over $100 for just a rear sight to shoot at paper and wood ? I'm not running around the streets of Iran and shit......lol.

I want to get one of those UTG rear sights for the price but I keep hearing bad things like they are hit or miss on quality. Any suggestions let me know, I dont want to spend more then $40 for a rear sight.

@zachporter2010 spikes tactical makes one for about 90 bucks there good brand the other is dpms

[ZackPorter2010]

ahh if anyone knows a good carry handle that would go with a RRA flip up front sight for my ar-15 that doesnt cost over 100$ i would really appreciate it an less it costs the better lol

[brutaltlr]

Right on! Thanks for the vid!
