What is the YANKEE HILL MACHINE CO., INC. - AR-15 Flip-Up Tactical Rear Sight Black?

Heavy-duty, steel construction makes these emergency rear flip sights the tactical shooter’s choice for LE and military tasks requiring a compact, backup, sight system of superior strength and dependability. Deploys easily with the flick of your thumb; disengages down, out of your sight path when not in use by depressing the spring-loaded pushbutton. Extra thick, protective ears guard against blows that could potentially bend or break the sight post or aperture. Solid clamp with large crossbolt provides rock solid attachment to Weaver or Picatinny rail systems. Knurled and slotted, quick-release thumbscrew makes sight easy to install/remove. Rear Flip Sight's low-profile design attaches to A4 flattop receivers and regulates correctly with standard, M16/M4 front sights, as well as all Yankee Hill front sights. Rugged, steel base features an aluminum stem to keep weight to a minimum. Deploys instantly with thumb pressure. Large, knurled, screw head provides 1⁄2 M.O.A. windage adjustment. Includes flip-style aperture with .065" and .200" diameter peepholes for short- and long-range accuracy.


SPECS: Steel, Mil-Spec phosphate coating. 1" (2.5cm) long, 1Ѕ" (3.8cm) wide, 1-3?8" (3.5cm) high when raised, 2.5 oz. (71 g) wt.

Outstanding rear iron sight
This rear sight co/witnesses perfectly with my Aimpoint PRO in addition to my YHM forearm front sight. I now have a reliable MBUS back up tp rely on at any time. The construction is heavy duty and will last.

I like it
I have 2 of these rear sights on my ARs and find them to be just what I needed. When I don't need them they stay folded and unobtrusive. When needed, they are easy to deploy and use. I have been using them for several years without them coming loose. I do check the screws from time to time and they always seem tight

good buis
I have this on my AR with the vltor rail system and an Aimpoint with a lowmount. Works great! Only problem with "losing zero" is probably due to the A2 windage nob. Personally, I don't have any problems with it at all and would recommend it.

Great Backup IRON Sight
I don't understand the complaints about this sight falling off. I installed it 8 years ago with blue loctite (obviously) and have never had that problem. It is now on a new gun and no problems whatsoever. The only complaint is that it sits too high when folded to fit under some of the newer scopes. I have a Primary Arms 1-6 on my latest rifle and I can't use the sight under it. So I've moved it to a rifle with a red dot. I couldn't be happier. I can only guess that if people are having problems they are either not using loctite (which should be used when attaching ANYTHING to a firearm) or are using the thumb screw to make it finger tight!
