What are some decent folding BUIS?
Thinking about pic related.
Talk me out of it.
Troy.
Pros:
>Very solid construction
>Metal means no worries of the front sight warping with use.
>Very nice, clicky, adjustments.
Cons:
>They hire baby killers.

Magpul
Cheap, accurate, durable. Just don't mount the front one on a gas block.

Can't mount mbus on a gas block, but the mbus pros are all metal.
i have these, $120 i think i paid for them. simple, great quality and also fuck Troy. theyre not folding but at least its one less point of failure

I've heard that a lot of people say they don't like Troy's hiring practices.
What's the deal?
>>30585920
I'm curious to know if anyone is aware of a folding design that does not take up more rail space when collapsed. I'm imagining one that folds to the side in particular (although I can see how it might be hard to maintain a correct zero with such a design).

Not to derail the thread or anything but is there a way to replace the bolt on these without the big knob sticking out the side?

In what may have been the most tone def marketing of all time, Troy hired Lon Horiuchi, a former FBI sniper. Horiuchi is only famous for being at Waco and Ruby Ridge, the later of which he fucked up so badly that the family of the people he killed actually sued and won $3 million from the federal government.
So yeah, turns out gun owners don't like FBI snipers that kill survivalists. Who knew?

I'm interested in this question, I hate that giant side knob.
>>30586142
>>30586185
maybe one of those thumb screws like for computer cases?
>>30586075
I have these too, I like them a lot since rheyre touch as nauls but ive have had a bitch of a time adjusting the rear sight, is there something I'm missing?
>>30586337
Tough as nails* holy shit
>>30586142
ive seen guys take the knob off, cut the bolt to length, and use a nut to hold it in place. lower profile and cheap but youd need a tool to take it off
>>30586154
Don't forget right before that, they hired a retired cop/politician/etc who was massively anti-2A
>>30586337
i put mine on 3 because it seemed like the middle setting and so far so good, try adjusting the front sight
>>30585920
I'd suggest the kac folding buis, they're not as sexy looking in my opinion but they are solid and functional
>>30585920
Read this. Trust me.

>>30586075
just some badass sights
>>30585920
Eric?
>>30586491
who is this?
mbus or mbus pro - done deal pal.
>>30586427
That article convinced me to just get fixed irons and worry about folding rear ones when I get my hands on some optics
>>30585963
So pretty much no negatives then. I know what sights to buy now.
