The MBUS (Magpul Back-Up Sight) Pro Sight – Front, Hooded is an all-steel backup front sight. The hooded front sight arm provides a profile that aids in faster sight acquisition while minimizing snagging. It's just as durable as our other Pro sights thanks to a corrosion-resistant QPQ finish that delivers maximum functionality and strength with minimum bulk. When the Hooded Pro Front Sight is paired with the dual-aperture, windage-adjustable MBUS Pro Sight – Rear, it can act as a diopter-style sight (aperture within an aperture) depending on its placement in relation to the rear sight. Used with the MBUS Pro Sight – Rear, the toolless, elevation-adjustable MBUS Pro Sight set excels in all applications. Detents keep the Hooded Sight at standard sight height when deployed, and it remains out of the way when stowed (measuring 1.71" from the sight base's leading edge to the top of the hood). Two front-post widths (.040" match and .060" standard) are available to fit precision needs (the narrower .040" post is also compatible with most IR aiming device and light installations for the professional user). As with all our sights, it's made in the USA.
