quality product; worth the money

great design
Zeroed these on my new saa upper last week. Seem to be very well made and sit very low in the stowed position.

worth the cost
I debated for a while on buying cheaper flip sights. I am glad I did not waste the money. These are good quality and light weight. They are what you expect from magpul

MBUS, The Best Value In Flip-up Sights
I chose Magpul MBUS G2 flip-up sights from SAA for my last two builds simply because Magpul makes the best sights for the money for the vast majority of AR owners. Some people are glad to spend a lot more money for a name and heavier metal sights, more power to them. When I wanted to build ARs my wife and I, for personal and property defense, I am not trying to impress anyone else with "how cool it is". I want the highest quality I can get, with the least added weight as possible that will reliably put rounds on target, period. The fact that MBUS cost about half as much as steel sights is a bonus. ...Semper Fi

Great sights
The sights mounted on the rail very easily. They operate correctly. Am eager to try them out at the range and get them sighted in.

Great product
These are great for its purpose. They are not for shooting wings off of a fly but for a gun fight they are light weight and convenient. I love them.

Excellent sights
Love these things. I was "raised" shooting with typical iron sights, and never really got into scopes. These are dead simple to use, adjustable and even come in various colors. What more do you need?
