  • CMMG quality trusted by armorers, agencies, and serious enthusiasts.

Purpose-Built Performance

This assembly is designed to deliver a true front sight reference at standard height, enabling absolute or lower-1/3 co-witnessing with the right optic setup and rear sight.

Ideal Use Cases

  • Duty and defensive builds where rugged iron sights are mandatory.

  • Retro/clone projects seeking the classic fixed front sight look and feel.

  • Hunting and field rifles that demand dependable aiming in tough weather.
