Most Helpful Positive Review Rail-Mount BUIS
Stands at the same height as an A2 sight but has the advantage of folding out of the way when not needed, like when using optical sights. Locks firmly into position, and co-witnesses perfectly. Another quality Leapers product. Pros: Does The Job Cons: None
Most Helpful Negative Review UTG Flip up rear sighr
Recoil from my AR15/6.5 Grendel knocked the sight down every shot. Threw it in the trash after the first use. Pros: Easy to set up Cons: Will not stay up

Good flip-up sight

by frank, from NC, United States Written on January 17, 2016
I own several of the rear flip-up sights using the A2 front sight on my AR. Also works well when Co-Witnessing sights with a Red Dot.The metal construction holds up and keeps zero well. A good value for the price and shipping was quick from OpticsPlanet.

Great Back-Up Sight

by fossikker, from CA, United States Written on September 17, 2015
Inexpensive and works great, and it's metal not polymer/plastic. Once zeroed, I was shooting soda cans at 200 yards and was able to consistently hit a silhouette target at 400 yards. Since the only time I'd use it is if my scope is non-op, I removed it and then put it back on three times and zero was still good. For a back-up sight and for the price, you can't go wrong.

Leapers UTG Flip-up Tactical Rear Sight

by BigKid, from TX, United States Written on January 10, 2015
If you have a rail system on your AR, AK, or any firearm with electronic optics OR even a scope and the sight FAILS, you are SOL Unless you have a BACK UP Sight. This is a great way to have an expensive Back Up.
On an AR with a red dot type optic sight, this sight allows to Co Witness on the Front Sight Through the optic. Just what I wanted to do. Can use With of Without the optic. Scopes may be different.
Pros:
  • Inexpensive
  • 2 appeatures
Cons:
  • Does NOT fold down
Best Used for:
  • Back up rear sight

Does the job

by want2learn, from CA, United States Written on December 21, 2014
I'm very satisfied with the product. The UTG sight seems to be stoutly built. Offered at a fair price i would call this not only a decent product but a bargain. For the civilian user who merely desires a back up to their primary i feel i've received a very good value.

Leapers UTG Flip-up Tactical Rear Sight Complete with Dual Aiming Aperture MNT-951

by Johnny, from CA, United States Written on October 1, 2014
Fits well on AR platform, good instructions with the product. Easy to assemble and add attachments to rails. No problems with the product with one slight exception. The rails are slightly sharp around edges. Also its a little bulky when the rubber protectors are added to the rails, otherwise good economical user friendly product.

UTG Flip up rear sight MNT-951

by Legacy Reviewer, Verified Owner from MT, United States Written on August 18, 2013
Well made sight that is easy to mount and adjust. The only reason I did not give it straight five's accross the board is I believe it would have benefited from a positive locking mechanism when the sight is flipped up/down, versus a friction lock, but nevertheless it holds zero just fine. Excellent value for the price, would buy another.

Great sight for the money

by Legacy Reviewer, Verified Owner from VA, United States Written on July 6, 2013
This sight is typical Leapers - a good product and a great deal for the money. It won't be the most durable or last the longest, but you can't beat the price. I highly recommend it.
Pros: Great price, sturdy, fits well.
Cons: None.
