MBUS® Sight – Front - BLACK

The MBUS (Magpul® Back-Up Sight) is a low-cost, color injection-molded, folding back-up sight. The MBUS Front Sight is adjustable for elevation and fits most 1913 Picatinny-railed hand guards, but is specifically tailored to the AR15 / M16 platform.

An elevation adjustment tool is included, but most aftermarket A2 front sight adjustment tools may be used as well.

FEATURES

Easily activated from either side or by pressing the top

Compatible with most MIL-STD-1913 Picatinny / STANAG 4694-railed hand guards* and provides the same height-over-bore as standard A2 irons
Made in the USA.
