Weapons Stuff: The CSAT Rear Sight for AR-15/M-16, by XS Sight Systems

Filed under: Weapons Stuff — Tags: , , , , , — Matt @ 3:04 PM

    This sight is brand new, and there really isn’t much input about it.  It looks promising though and I just wanted to get this up on FJ so guys know that it exists. 

     I do like the fact that this rear sight has a notch, just like a pistol.  I also like the horizontal serrations carved into it, and this falls in line with the sight that Larry Vickers likes called the Slantpro Straight 8 by Heinie.  I have that sight on my Glock, and it is an outstanding rear sight aperture for pistols.

    But like I said, I do not own this rear sight and I haven’t heard any feedback about this sight, except for one comment at the XS store website where you can buy this sight.  On the CSAT website, they give a better description of how to use this new rear sight, so be sure to check that out as well.

    Also, I wanted to give a heads up that CSAT is coming out with a new rifle based on the AR 15 platform and that this rear sight will probably be a standard feature of this rifle.  It will be great to see the final product in the near future.  –Head Jund
