The Magpul MBUS Front Sight delivers reliable backup sighting capability when primary optics fail or require removal. This spring-loaded flip-up sight mounts to any MIL-STD-1913 Picatinny rail and provides shooters with a dependable iron sight solution that stays out of the way until needed.
What Makes This Different
The MBUS (Magpul Back-Up Sight) system uses a spring-loaded mechanism that allows rapid deployment with a simple push of the sight post. Unlike fixed iron sights that can interfere with optics or create snag points, this low-profile design folds completely flat when not in use. The reinforced polymer construction weighs significantly less than steel alternatives while maintaining the strength needed for repeated use and impact resistance.Key Features
