The Troy SSIG-45S-MDFT-00 45 Degree Offset Battlesight Set delivers rapid target transitions when primary optics fail or close-quarters situations demand instant backup sighting. This Flat Dark Earth anodized sight set mounts at 45-degree angles to provide immediate secondary aiming capability without removing hands from firing position.
What Makes This Different
Unlike traditional backup iron sights that require complete sight picture realignment, the 45-degree offset configuration allows shooters to simply cant the rifle for instant sight acquisition. The dioptic rear aperture provides precise target definition while the M4-style front post delivers consistent sight picture alignment. Troy's machined aluminum construction withstands impacts that would damage polymer alternatives, maintaining zero through thousands of rounds.

Field testing demonstrates sub-4 MOA accuracy at 100 yards when properly zeroed, sufficient for defensive engagements and competition backup roles. The sight set maintains zero through temperature variations from -40°F to 160°F, making it suitable for duty use across diverse climates. Quick target acquisition proves valuable in 3-gun competition stages where optic failures eliminate competitors, while law enforcement appreciates the redundancy during critical incidents.
