GG&G Spring Actuated Flip Up Front Sight For Tactical Forearms GGG-1282

The new GG&G Spring Actuated Flip Up Front Sight is the latest evolution in our Flip Up Front Sight product line. With just a push of a button the front sight can quickly be deployed on target. With the introduction of the Spring Actuated A2 BUIS (Back Up Iron Sight) it was only a natural progression to provide our customers with an A2 flip up front sight with the same features and benefits. The unique and proprietary design of the mechanism allows the actuator spring and mechanical components to be captivated and therefore not be open to environmental elements. The sight not only springs into an on target position with just the push of the actuator button, but it also locks solidly into the upright on target position. Another push of the button and the lock is released allowing you to set the sight into the locked down position. The spring sight cannot be folded down without depressing the actuator button located on the left side of the sight base. This totally eliminates the possibility of accidentally lowering the sight. With the actuator button located on the left side it can be easily operated with the off hand, leaving the fire control hand in the proper position. This model is specifically manufactured to the proper sight height for mounting on a tactical forearm. Not only is it set for use on the AR15, but will co-witness when mounted to the tactical forearm of an AR-10. The sight stem of this version folds rearward. The dovetail front sight mounting design also allows for fast installation. Installation is easy with the GG&G provided allen wrench. To insure flexibility, we use standard military sight components in this combat ready sight. All models of the GG&G Spring Actuated Flip Up Front Sight are manufactured from solid 4140 billet chrome moly steel and are bead blasted and manganese phosphated to provide a non-reflective, corrosion resistant matte black finish meeting mil-spec requirements. All edges have been dehorned for the operator's safety. As an option, a Trijicon Tritium AR-15 Front Sight Post can be ordered with the sight for accuracy in low light operations. This tritium front sight option is the perfect accessory for police and tactical users who may be moving in and out of darkness in real time.
