The GG&G 45 Degree Iron Sights are the perfect addition for shooters needing to rapidly transition between long-range and close-quarters engagements, especially when using magnified optics on rifles like the AR-15 or SCAR. These offset iron sights, designed to mount at a 45-degree angle, allow for seamless switching by canting the weapon slightly, ensuring swift target acquisition without removing your primary optic.
Crafted from tough 6061-T6 billet aluminum and finished with a hard coat anodized matte black, these angled iron sights are both lightweight and robust, weighing only 0.75 ounces each. The front sight uses a standard A2 style square post that is adjustable for elevation and can be replaced with a Tritium insert to enhance low-light visibility. The rear sight features a large open aperture, adjustable for windage, which facilitates quick and accurate targeting.
Installation is straightforward, with compatibility for both Picatinny and Mil-STD-1913 dovetails, ensuring a secure fit without interfering with primary optics. These canted iron sights are ambidextrous, making them suitable for both right- and left-handed shooters, and are ideal for various tactical applications, including law enforcement, military use, self-defense, and 3-Gun competitions.
The GG&G 45 Degree Iron Sights make a great choice even if you are looking for offset sights on an AR-15 or canted iron sights for a SCAR.
