AR-15 TACTICAL BATTLE REAR SIGHT Reviews & Ratings

Tactical backup sight is always deployed, so there’s absolutely no delay, no fumbling when you need to transition from the primary optic. Troy designed this sight to be simple, rugged, and reliable—and it takes up only 1-1⁄8" of rail space. Precision machined from solid aluminum, with plenty of metal on the protective “ears” around the two-position aperture. All edges and corners are rounded, and there are no protruding knobs or levers to catch on brush, clothing, or other equipment. Rear of the base is undercut to provide clearance for access to the charging handle. Same-plane aperture flips easily between .190" and .070" diameter peeps, just like the Folding Rear Battle Sight. Windage adjustable in ½ MOA clicks using a coin in the slot of the flush A1-style detent-locking adjustment wheel. Clamps to any Picatinny rail; installs with a standard flathead screwdriver.

SPECS: 6061 T6 aluminum, hardcoat anodized, Black finish. 1.5” (3.8cm) OAL, 1.25” (3.2cm) maximum width, 1.875” (4.8cm) high from top of rail to top of sight housing. 1.8 oz. (52g) weight.

Rear Fixed Battle Sight, Black by TROY

I mounted this on a FN FNAR for use until I can afford to buy a nice scope. The matching front sight mounted smoothly with no issues, but this rear sight had to be basically pounded on with a rubber mallet. I loosed it as much as possible and even tried stretching the base out where the two cut lines are. It didn't help. I would not recommend this sight or purchase it again. Buy a different version, the base of this is a bad design.

Not so sure...

I had a very difficult time installing this thing on my flat top AR. Seemed just to simply not fit without a ton of effort. Thought it would simply slide on my rail, but this was not the case. I would not buy this product again. I would return it, but I dont think it would come off of my gun.
