Recommended iron sights... 300 blackout rifle.

[leroy]

Am waffling back n forth on red dot vs irons on a 300BO ... I tend to like the irons... 100% reliable, rugged, n my overall familiarity.   Any observations/ recommendations as to type n brands would be appreciated... These sights are for possible " real " use, much like the old time lever guns were with the man hunters.    Large two legged predator control.

Thanks in advance.

I had to decide this recently on the same caliber. I ended up with a dot with nice backup irons. A dot is so much faster (for me) than irons. A Sig Romeo5 is only $150 and easily solved the issue for me. I have magpul mbus pro irons. It’s a great setup.

Just reread your question. If you are looking for just irons and are wanting fixed I tend to like the Troy fixed irons the best.

Just looked and Skinner doesn’t make sights for an AR

Safe to assume front sight to be rail mounted? Or A2 front sight post?

Daniel Defense has a nice set of fixed iron sights. So does LMT.

Of note, all iron sights for ARs I am aware of, the elevation adjustment will be for 5.56

I’m a big fan of DD fixed iron sights.

If you decide to go folding, I don't think there are many better options than the Magpul MBUS Pro.

Another thumbs up for Troy. Can't go wrong.

Ive heard good things about these. No personal experience but I have their optic mounts and theyre great.

I would get a set of fixed Daniel Defense sights and call it a day.  I wouldn't be too concerned with folding since you aren't putting an optic on the rifle as well.

Awesome! They have the dual benefit of a great sight picture along with just looking cool.

I also think Troy fixed irons would be the best sight for that.
