Strike Industries Strike Polymer Backup Sights – Black – Folding BUIS for AR-15 (SPBUS) – UPC 793811765694
Reliable, lightweight, and ready when you need them—Strike Industries Strike Polymer Backup Sights (SPBUS) give your AR-15 a rugged, low-profile folding BUIS solution that won’t weigh down your build. Molded from impact-resistant polymer with reinforced hardware, these black flip-up sights deploy in seconds for a clear sight picture if your optic fails, your battery dies, or you simply prefer irons to confirm zero. With intuitive windage and elevation adjustments, an easy-to-acquire A2-style front post, and a dual-aperture rear, SPBUS delivers the confidence and precision you expect from Strike—minus the bulk and price tag of metal alternatives.
Why polymer BUIS? They’re lightweight, cost-effective, and corrosion-resistant, ideal for duty-ready rifles, training carbines, and minimalist builds where ounces matter but reliability is non-negotiable.
Key Benefits
Instant backup: Spring-assisted folding design (manual flip) snaps up for a crisp sight picture when your red dot goes down.
Featherweight strength: High-strength polymer housing and steel hardware keep the set light yet durable for real-world use.
Streamlined profile: Ultra-low-profile when folded to minimize snags under slings, in vehicles, and through barricades.
Tool-friendly zero: Standard A2 front post for elevation and a rear windage dial make zeroing straightforward at the range.
Co-witness friendly: Mounts at standard AR sight height for absolute or lower 1/3 co-witness with common red dots (mount dependent).
Budget-smart upgrade: Trusted Strike Industries design and functionality at a wallet-friendly price.
Ideal Use Cases
Everyday AR-15 builds: A dependable backup to optics on general-purpose carbines.
Training & classes: Durable sights that hold zero through transport and high-round-count sessions.
Lightweight rifles: Save ounces without sacrificing a familiar iron sight picture.
Home & truck guns: Low-profile when stowed; ready in a second if you need them.
Feature Highlights
Front sight: A2-style elevation-adjustable post with protective ears.
Rear sight: Dual-aperture (small/large) with windage adjustment wheel for fast daylight/low-light changes.
Fold-flat design: Both sights fold to a slim profile; ambi-friendly flip-up action.
Mounting: 1913 Picatinny rail clamp for upper receivers/handguards.
Finish/Color: Black with Strike branding.
Material: Impact-resistant polymer body with steel screws and cross-bolts.
Model / SKU: SPBUS
UPC: 793811765694
For best results, mount the rear sight on the upper receiver rail (not the handguard) to maintain zero. The front can mount on a same-plane gas block/rail; verify same-plane height.
What You’ll Notice on the Range
Fast sight picture: Large aperture for close work; flip to the small aperture for precision at distance.
Repeatable zero: Once set, adjustments stay put through recoil and drills.
No-fuss deployment: Smooth, positive flip with a tactile click—easy to operate with gloves.
Installation (Quick Start)
Unload and clear your rifle.
Rear sight: Place on the upper receiver Picatinny rail; align and tighten the clamp screw to manufacturer torque.
Front sight: Mount on a same-plane Picatinny section; verify alignment.
Rough zero: Mechanical center the rear; set the front post flush.
Confirm zero: Fire 3–5 shot groups at 25–50 yards; adjust front for elevation and rear for windage. Re-confirm at your preferred distance.
Pro tip: Paint a tiny witness mark on the clamp screw to quickly confirm nothing has moved after classes or travel.
Compatibility Notes
Platform: AR-15 and other firearms with 1913 Picatinny top rails at standard sight height.
Co-witness: Works with common red dots; the exact co-witness (absolute or lower 1/3) depends on your optic mount height.
Gas block height: If using a gas block, ensure it’s rail height/same-plane; do not mount on a low-profile or non-raised gas block unless specified.
Care & Maintenance
Routine checks: Verify clamp tension and flip mechanism function during cleaning.
Keep it clean: Brush carbon/dust from the post and apertures; a dab of oil on pivot points helps long-term.
Protect the post: Use an A2 sight tool or the correct tool to prevent marring the front post.
Safety & Responsibility
Always follow the four rules of firearm safety.
Confirm zero after any hard impact, optic change, or rail reconfiguration.
Know and follow local laws regarding transport and configuration.
