Features

• Clamps to most any MIL-STD-1913 Picatinny/STANAG 4694 railed hand guard and provides the same height-over-bore as standard A2 irons


• Protective wings shield the spring-locking A2 front sight post

NEW Features for GEN 2

• Reduced size for greater optics compatibility


• Spring-locking front sight post holds consistent elevation

Front MBUS must be mounted to a railed fore end on the same plane as the receiver rail. Because of this the sight is not compatible with the MOE Hand Guard.
