Most Helpful Positive Review Great backup sight
Easy to install. Works perfectly with the fixed A2 front sight on my upper. Folds out of the way when not needed. Great ordering experience from Optics Planet. Pros: Low profile folds flat, high quality polymer Cons: None
Most Helpful Negative Review You get what you pay for
I regretted this purchase as I pulled it from the box. The sight is massive, far bigger than, say, my Noveske or other, more expensive sights. I have since sold it locally. Having said that - for the price you are getting a very solid sight that does what it is supposed to do. I like two apertures,...

backup iron sights

by Jerry Mathys, Verified Owner from OH, United States Written on February 22, 2025
I have tried various iron sights over the years, and found that buy the best the first time and you won’t have to buy things twice. Optics planet has everything I need and want. Magpul buis are the best. I look to optics for most of my needs, and delivery is always on time. Thank you optics planet.

More Typical Magpul

by BearonN, Verified Owner from PA, United States Written on February 3, 2025
As with my review of the MBUS Front Sight, the MBUS Rear Sight is of the same excellent quality! Top quality workmanship, superb functionality, and a solid (few light taps with a plastic hammer to get started on the rail) fit. This review could have been a mirror copy of my Front Sight review: both are top notch sights. As I am with all the Magpul furniture I have on my recent build, I am quite pleased with the sights!
Pros:
  • Excellent fit & finish
  • OUTSTANDING WORKMANSHIP
  • superb functionality
Cons:
  • pricey if you don't look for deals
Best Used for:
  • modular rifle builds
Would recommend: Yes

ordered a set and got two different gen sights

by DAMOND, Verified Owner from VA, United States Written on December 26, 2024
Different packaging, different shades of grey. Need the sights now so won’t be sending them back. But would not recommend ordering Magpul. Inconsistent color.
