overall not too bad though. Adjusting the rear was easy and solid
Not one for reviews but I hope this will help someone.First The construction of these is relatively decent. Some of the cuts aren't clean and that shows in the finish, overall not too bad though.Adjusting the rear was easy and solid, I didn't feel a lot of play. The rear aperture isn't cleanly cut and you might need to drill some bits down to use properly on the day/long range aperture.They mounted perfectly and haven't wiggled at all on my rail.They lock in place when opened and I haven't had one fall back or break with roughly 300 rounds of 300blk supersonics.My biggest complaint is the front sight post. The design requires the use of a normal m4/m16 adjustment tool, however the "horns" whatever you want to call them, prevents the tool from being able to access the post. There just ins't enough room. I used several tools including ones my range buddies had and nothing worked.I eventually used a bullet tip to lower the post, however since you can't come from above the sight you must come from the front or back and you have limited room.It took me 30 minutes to get the post down a couple notches which was still off of zero.I went home and used a dremel to take away some of the horns to get access, but it became apparent that I would need to take a lot of material off.I spent another 45 minutes or so (damaged several bullet tips) getting the post down to zero on my RD.Overall decent sights, but not for you if you adjust your front post at all. I'll be throwing these in a drawer and getting the real deal.

If I could write a negative stars I would. The sites don't lock into place properly making it impossible to sight in your rifle with them. As a back up site I would not trust them at all in a bad situation. If Your radical failed and you had these sites on you're gun pull out the side arm in till you can fix your radical. As far as sights go these are the bottom of the barrel terrible don't buy

Good for the money, may need to be fixed, but it can be done
First I want to make it clear that my score of 4 stars is based on, what you are getting for what you are paying. At first glance these are a dead ringer for Diamond head sights, which as we know would cost you about $200 a set. I don't know if there is a law suit pending somewhere or not, but we need not go into all that here and now. These sights are metal, which is what I always prefer, and to my knowledge 2 colors are available, black and baby poop what they call FDE. Overall the quality isn't half bad, but there are some issues. The locking mechanism is held in with 2 small pins, which would be fine, but for whatever reason the holes the small pins go into go all the way threw the sight base. What happens next is, the small pins can drop out of the sight, and if they both drop out of the sight then the whole locking mechanism can drop out, this is an obvious design flaw. If the pins were tapered correctly, or if the holes didn't go all the way threw the base of the sight, then this wouldn't be able to occur. However, this issue can be fixed, you can use super glue to secure the pins from the bottom just be careful not to get any inside where the locking mechanism is. If you are good with a soldering iron, you can also use that to fix the issue; I found some small panel nails which could replace the pins, they fit into the holes tightly and I would cut the nails so no extra would protrude from the bottom of the sight base. Now if you need to do all this are these sights worth it, well truth be told I have to many ARs and such to put a set of Troys on everything, and if your intended purpose for these are back up sights, then yes they are worth the cost. Now I did have one set of these which was very canted to the one side, so much so that they rubbed on the rail, and it was a fight just to get them up. I contacted the seller, and they sent me a new set no fuss, which is another reason I'm rating these as well as I did, costumer support is always a selling point for me. If you got the money to buy Troys or real Diamond heads, and you figure you will be using you irons a lot, maybe these aren't for you; but if you want a set of BUIS which are still good for the money, these might be the ticket. I guess if I didn't come up with an easy and cheap way to fix these my tone might be different, but I did, which is good, since I've got about 10 sets of these. My fix uses 15 gauge panel nails, got'em at Lowe'

They're good for the money
They're good for the money. Problem is these aren't flat dark earth. I contacted the company and their response was something along the lines of "flat dark earth varies greatly and this is our flat dark earth." It ain't. It's olive drab. I wonder what their olive drab version looks like....

Great price works very well
Great price works very well, this isn't a light sight but serves its purpose great. Color matches well enough to all the slight differences in FDE. Would recommend to anyone looking for this color in a flip up sight for a good price.

Just OK
Not bad for the price. I would not make this your primary sighting system. Just OK for a backup emergency sight.

These are OK . I don't think they are worth the money and they are built well heavy and very basic.

Pretty great buis for the money
Pretty great buis for the money! They are not quite magpul FDE but close enough. IT IS NOT SPRING LOADED. The detents work OK they are a little loose. Just don't shoot any heavy calibers
