What sights should I get for my shitty AR? I'm thinking these diamond head one's, any suggestions?
Sights thread
Also really like RRA's sights, but theyre expensive as fuck
Troy one's look magnificent.
>>28305810
The design of those sights is both literally and figuratively edgy
>>28305810
don't get the one on the right it is literally the definition of a terrible sight picture, it looks cool but how can anyone even see what they're shooting at with it?
>>28305829
B-but I am edgy...
The diamondhead front post is a bit fat in my experience, but I've always liked the angular alignment.
>>28305825
>Supporting Troy
KAC is the only choice
Posting /k/ related wallpapers too
>>28305872
S just the name of them, theyre RRA's
>>28305879
Hahahaha I'm laughing my ass off
>>28305810
Hk diopter sights. If you're going to have a shifty AR, at least have good sights.
>>28305879
That filename
>>28305922
Perfect, just what I was looking for. Thanks

SHOOT AT THERE FEET

>shitty AR
MBUS
>>28306098
if someone has to go with plasticrap sights go with fab defense because they won't need a tool to change elevation.
>>28306135
>fab defense
>on anything not airsoft
>>28306098
Fuck it man. Since I'm putting an Aimpoint Pro on mine I'm getting an MBUS rear site because fuck off I won't actually use it ever unless something retarded happens to my Aimpoint.
>>28306174
Just get a surplus KAC rearsight off ebay for $60.
>>28306146

What's wrong with Troy? Did I miss something?
Hey OP,
I'm about to give you a Christmas present.
Go to amazon, look up Green Blob flip up sights
They are literally aluminum flip up iron sights that are Texan made replicas of the Diamond Head... same exact design but for $30 instead of $90.
I have two sets for my cheaper AR-15 builds and they zero and work very well.
>>28306278
Troy are literally hands down the best iron sights money can buy, /k/ is just autistic because one of their former employees was involved in Waco.
>>28306494
>best mineu can buy
>regular plastic.mbus sights dont lose zero when whacked
>unlike troy and even mbus pro
>>28306486
>Green Blob
>>28306486
>Green Blob
>Texan made replicas
Texan imported, Chink made.
They're complete airsoft tier garbage, too.
Buy once, cry once.
>>28306486
>muh Texas
Man, fuck Texas.

>>28306899
wow lot of hate, I've had mine and put over 500 rounds combined between my PSA build and another AR-15 using these sights and I am able to pop water bottles at 25 yards with them very easily...
I mean $30 for two sets is much better than paying $75-100 per front/rear sight...
>>28307274
>25 yd
Why even bother with sights then?
>>28305922
Wow, didn't know this was a thing, thanks.
Are there any that don't have the notch for 100yd? I'd rather have 4 holes than 3 + notch.
>>28307274
>500 rounds combined
>pop water bottles at 25 yards
Well it's been settled. My bad.
>>28307274
>25yd
Wow it's fucking nothing.
>>28307395
theres a notch at a 100 cause if your shooting at a 100 quick sight acquisition is more important than precision
>>28307274
Wow, you're able to do foundational pistol shooting with an AR15. Clearly this means your sights are ready for combat! Watch out everyone, we got a badass over here...
Pop water bottles at 100 and 18 inch gongs at 300 and get back to us about how good your sights are.
>>28307395
Just shoot with the 200 yard hole if it bothers you. On an AR the vertical difference should be less than 1.5 inches when at 100 yards.
Hell, from 12 yards to 250 yards the drop/rise for the 200 yard hole is less than 2 inches in either direction.
>>28306278
they give money to FBI babykillers
>>28307274
i would rather pay 400 dollars for two front sights than pay ten cents for a green boob sight
>>28305810
I got the diamond heads on my ar. The angular nature of the sights really do help with sight/target acquisition. The human eye likes right angles.
I plan on getting a tritium insert front post and maybe drill the rear sight for tritium vials also unless i can get by just painting them.
>>28306072
>THERE
I recommend a matech rear of a eBay for $30-$50, and MBUS regular front.
>>28307924
Why not get the polymer version? I thought they already have some kind of night glow shit built into it.
Also talking about polymer sights, how does the new Ruger polymers match up against Magpul or Diamondhead polymers?
>>28305810
>>28305879
>not just cowitnessing another optic
Do you even operate?
>>28308474
>>28308348
I think those came out after October 2014.
>>28307395
Mine has the 4 holes, no notch, I'll likely only ever use 300 cause it's how I was trained.
>>28307386
You zero for 300 yards at 25.
>>28306188
>surplus
Lol
>>28309098
>still using rainbowtastic 300 yard zero
>not superior 50/200

>>28309182
That guy's $30 sights don't have ranging adjustments.
>>28308505
>eotech
>each one warped to a different zero
Sounds about right.
>>28309200
On the real, 300 is easy to zero to at a short range and for irons, 300 is the farthest you'll be able to shoot reliably.
>>28309227
There's still a silly amount of ballistic arc compared to the 50 yard zero where aim compensation at 300 consists of [aim at the head to hit center of mass, aim center of mass to hit them in the dick]
KAC 600m
>>28305815
>expensive
LMAO poorfag detected
>>28309274
What round/muzzle velocity is that for?
>>28309274
The army has been doing the 25/300yd zero since the M16 entered service.
>>28307274
>pop water bottles at 25 yards
Nigger I can do that with a $40 pellet gun, get back when you're at 100 yds
>>28305810
I saw some hooded front sights once but Im unable to find them again
>>28308474
>>28308505
Hummm not all the reticles line up... not surprised it's EoTech.
>>28309347
more like 300m
>>28309363
nice meme
eokeks are fine
>>28309324
Not sure, have another chart with actual weapon/velocity listed.
>>28309337
Just because the Army does it doesn't mean it's automatically the best choice.
>>28307274
>500 rounds
>popping water bottles at 25 yards
>>28309383
So THATS why there's the 350yd setting on the M4 sights. Interesting.
