I think you flipped the description for adjusting the sights, if you raise the front post, your shots should go down, and if you lower it the shots should go up… you said it right a couple times but in your “Pencil” demo, you said it backwards

[@jamescarter4175]

You are correct.

[@bigwednesday00able]

Thank you. I was here for this specific sight adjustment, but I have zeroed several rifles. So, this backward explanation bothered me.

[@His_Scout_Sixty]

If if your shooting hight? You go up?

[@sirmaxwellvonfleckenstein5376]

There is an arrow on the front sight that says 'up' which is to raise the point of impact. So if you are shooting low, turn it in the direction that says 'up'. Opposite direction if shooting high.

[@richardtheisen6456]

Yeah, and that's funny because he did say it's opposite , and then he did the opposite

[@Daniel-oh2ui]

yes. backwards. raising front post will send barrel down when lining sights up. I alway encourage people to look at it in the extreme . if you added 3 inches of post hight the barrel would point at the dirt when aligning sights. .

[@1718blazer]

FORS…..front opposite, rear same. A good crutch to remember sight adjustment.

[@harmoniousembodiment7203]

Finally someone who titles a video install of the sights and actually shows the actual process of installing it! Bizarre how many people title their videos about the sights and adding them to a rifle but all they do is yack and dont even show the actual process clearly or at all. Thank you!

[@claytonjones3802]

The bigger/smaller aperture hole is for night and day shooting. Smaller hole, smaller pupil for days. Larger hole, larger pupil for night shooting.

[@lorenl134]

Also larger hole for up close

[@noneyabusinesshomie]

Sight radius was the word you were looking for when talking bout the distance between the sights. Longer sight radius helps for making shots further away and still functions for close up, shorter radius helps for getting sight picture faster, pretty sure you knew that already though just describing for anyone curious.

[@munkeyinspace5331]

I’m definitely curious as I’ve always used iron sights or scopes. Is there a right or wrong distance for the sights to be apart? Meaning should they at least be like 12” apart or something?

[@CuddlebugThug]

I just bought a pair of the MBUS sights, and all your comments were very helpful, especially about the tightness in putting them on the rail. I used a few drops of CLP to ease them on, with a few taps of small hammer. The double rear sights were so tight, I couldn't separate them with a thumb nail but used a small screw driver; a nuisance. Thanks, too, for the sighting comments.

[@Raggzzaug11]

Same here. Definitely no slop!

[@Max-jq3kj]

[@RDxKa0s]

I’m so glad I went to KZbin!! I nearly hammered the thing onto the rail top-down... sliding it is the trick to get it on. I think I would’ve broke something

[@EagleRun23]

they arent normally this tight!! not sure why yours and mine were. Glad you are good to go!

[@Sparks68]

I have a very long central hallway -- about 25 meters -- and use it to set an initial zero with newly installed sights/optics for with an LED boresight. Saves some time fussing around with ammo on a range. No LED boresight is perfect, but it gets you close enough to finish zeroing quickly on a 25 meter range. With an AR-15, you only need to work with the upper when bore sighting it. I recommend temporarily removing the extractor from the bolt when using a boresight and using the bolt with BCG to hold the boresight in place in the chamber. Removing the extractor while doing it prevents damage the boresight case rim which is typically soft metal.

[@stevezoutman7533]

Follow the grouping. If you're hitting High move the front sight up if your hitting low move the front sight down

[@Blueknight1960]

Another way of saying it is------- Up is down and down is up.

I see you made this video about 8 months ago and had very tight sights. I just installed about my 10th set of Magpul sights and they were extremely tight to mount on the rail. I never had this issue before either. At first I thought the sights or the rail was defective. I guess it's a good thing because once it is mounted you almost don't need the screw, lol. Magpul must have tightened up their tolerances a little bit, it will probably be better in the long run. Magpul sights are solid sights for the money.

The thumb grasp part of your front sight tool is the flat head needed to tighten or loosen your screws. Thanks for the video.

[@emmanuelsanmiguel4031]

The little wingnut tool it comes with to adjust the sights can be used in place of a flathead screwdriver to tighten the sights on the picatinny rail. You can tell since there's a little section of it that's thinner that fits just right in it.

[@BelaPeralta-bp6lu]

The easiest way is to keep in mind the directions on the sight refer to the bullet impact point. ie.. if you are low and the arrow on the sight says “⬅️ up “you turn the sight clockwise to raise the point of impact. Same for L/R, if the arrow says “ R ➡️ “ and your hitting right you turn the back sight adjustment counter clockwise to move the impact point left . This applies to all sights.

[@GC-Jo]

Read the instructions closely and followed your video which was emensly helpful. Had to tap lightly with a rubber mallet front and rear sights. Thank you!

Mine fit tight like that, too. The screws can be installed using the edge of the front sight tool to tighten.

Your rear peep sight has two settings. The smaller peep or hole is your daylight aperture. The larger peep or hole is your night time aperture.

[@timrobinson6573]

How much does it change the POI for each click of the front post?

[@EagleRun23]

assuming 100 yards,,,,, its weird and imprecise, but one click is about 1.25 MOA. moa = 1 inch per 100 yards.

[@Raggzzaug11]

My magpul sights are tight on the rails also. I also went to adjust the rear sight and the knob popped off and the small indent bearing went flying! The roll pin was missing, made a new one for it. Ended up not using them because the rear sight interfered with my 1x6 scope. The riser on my scope is perfect for co-witnessing flip ups but can't get it far enough back for eye box on scope.

The "coating" on the screw is a lock--tite jel, just makes it a cleaner process.

Easiest way to think about it is which direction does the round need to go. Shot is high you adjust down, shot is right you bring it left. Same for scopes and dots.

[@EagleRun23]

Thank you for the instructions. I will note this though: I used the mbus pro sights. The front sight post was labeled up. Following the "front sight is opposite" saying, I went "down." After two sets of three rounds I realized the sight had that already taken into account. Lol

The stuff on the end of the screw is called "microencapsulation" .. it's basically dry powdered loctite/thread locker.. in automotive they say so replace these screws every time as if the stuff is one time use... Idk you could surely just put a drop on if you're worried about it coming loose

[@hunterbroome6168]

[@EagleRun23]

Great to hear! we are always building a gun or working on something, thanks for watching!

[@liggerstuxin1]

You are tapping the optics towards the front of the rail. Shouldn’t you tap them towards the back so that way recoil will only reinforce their position? That’s what I’ve read on optics anyway so I would imagine it would be the same for iron sights.

[@EagleRun23]

its in a rail slot and on there super tight. I would have had to tap it 14" all the way back down from the other side, that would have been sketchy! haha

[@liggerstuxin1]

@@EagleRun23 lol I didn’t mean other side of the gun. I meant while the screws are in and inside the rail. While the optic is loose tap it to the rear (inside the rail) so the recoil can only reinforce the position. After that you use Loctite or whatever. It’s probably just a bigger issue when you have a 6X or so because the slightest change will be magnified. I remember looking it up when I put on my Primary Arms Raptor 1-6 . There’s a little back and forth in rails themselves. Again probably not an issue with iron sights. I still tapped them towards the back anyway… lol

[@theairwaybat1830]

It's almost like they designed them to be constantly closed. All other flip ups are visually pleasing to look at

[@youtube.commentator]

@@theairwaybat1830 I agree, they could have done something different

[@kenfong6373]

The idea of folding to the rear is because your gun is always faced and maneuvered forward, walking, running, poking your barrel forward through brush hitting a branch or bashing and breaking a glass window etc you want your sight to fold rather than break , especially a polymer one , they get somewhat brittle if super cold . Stressing metal sights mounted backwards can end up tweaking the hinge pin assembly so they get loose and sloppy or dont close all the way

[@300blkreepin]

I also installed mine backward but for the reason it makes more sense that the button is behind the sight. Makes it easier and faster to activate the switch. With it installed “correctly” you have to make sure your thumb is in front of the sight when you hit the switch, then move your your hand back to where you normally grip.

[@samaelmartinus3273]

With boardsides eliminate how we're going to the range?

[@davidmartin8953]

The problem with these split rail sights is that the rail is in two pieces! Micro differences between the front and rear rails and sights! Plus, they are composite, giving a little! I've noticed my mono rail 22lr and 12 ga have very tight shot groups! On to something? No split rail, plus they are Alum., all metal. Mabey take down pins for split rail ar's need a tighter tolerance? Bandaid? Thread tape? Scotch Tape? I would love to figure out my S&W 15-22 accuracy problem, Any Ideas? MBUS worked great for first 100 rounds or so, then couldn't hit anything! Mabey loose barrel? Any comments will be greatly appreciated.

[@Industrialitis]

I think that's definitely something to keep in mind when dialing in sights. especially if the front sight base is just a few spots of picatinny on top of the gas block with no floating barrel. shooting past 100 yards with that could certainly lead to inaccuracy.

[@3fl1ppp]

is it normal to have the backsight adjusted all the way to the left in order for the round to go where you want it to go when you line the sights up??

[@yustkhz]

I just found this video after I cut my fingers on the rail trying to install the rear sight. It’s definitely a tight fit. 😂

[@EagleRun23]

I just made a new one with some AT3 pros. They aren’t that tight. :) welcome brother. Thanks for watching!

[@TedJenkins-e5x]

Since they are plastic, couldn’t the front sight warp from the heat of the barrel?

[@EagleRun23]

Theoretically and some rigs have gas blocks with pic rails. They really get hot. Handguards not so much. You would have to intentionally be doing some sort of burn down or ww3 for it to be a concern in my opinion :)

[@haopham267]

Is it possible to use a lazer to zero in then go to range to make minor adjustments?

[@mikewatkins7618]

There’s a reasonably priced laser boresighter (made by Bushnell I think). Instead of slipping it into the chamber end of the barrel, you insert it into the muzzle. It comes with several interchangeable tips (or bushings) for fit in a range of different calibers. I’ve used one for years. I set up an aiming point on living room wall (masking tape with Sharpie cross marking) and set rifle on gun vise on dining room table. Adjust sights or scope to align with the laser dot on the tape. Then at the range, at 50 yd I’m always on paper, can fine tune it from there. If you want to do this outside at a greater distance than the length of a living room, you can get it more precise, within just a couple of inches, before you ever use a single round of ammo.

[@tigertoilet2]

I used this sight at 100 yards on keltec cmr-30 . Wow is it accurate. No need for a scope.

[@piratecat990]

Just got my magpul sights in...I can't fit them over multiple rails. The rear sight stops before it even reaches the first rail slot, let alone the second slot. It seems as if I have to take a dremel tool to widen the seating portion of the sights. This is ridiculous. Fyi...both are Midwest Industries rails. I do not have a teflon hammer nor a hair dryer to warm it up.

[@EagleRun23]

People in comments gave me crap for tapping them in with a nylon hammer. But it work and there was no damage. Do what you gotta do :)

[@mikewatkins7618]

Magpul uses a high grade of polymer. Not going to harm them with lite hammer taps. If you don’t have a nylon face hammer, use a regular hammer and put a small block of wood against sight to hit on.

[@rangersmith4652]

I have not tried it at the range yet, using a magnetic laser bore sighting tool I wound up with my rear sight almost all the way left and my front sight almost all the way down.

A complete upper from a major manufacturer came with a Magpul rear sight. It's an unadulterated JUNK POS. I installed it, played with its chintzy mechanism a couple times, promptly ripped it off, smashed it with a ballpeen hammer to prevent any reuse by anyone, and pitched it into the trash bin. It had no repeatability whatsoever when flipped up, and its flimsy construction would obviously soon break off under field use. There is no comparison between this rubbish and the KAC made for the USMC, or the (less expensive) Troy Industries, also made for U.S. Government procurement. As to sight adjustment, the video does well in describing how to which way to move a front post and rear aperture to zero a rifle with iron sights.

Thats why these are called mbus sights. Magpul backup sights. Key word is backup. So of course, get a red dot. Red dot dies...use your backup sights

@@Not_Sure_81 I got me a Feyachi RS-28 4 in 1 Reflex Sight and also the OTW Flip Up Iron Sights Flip Up Front Sight + Back Up Rear Sight. I noticed my front iron sight you can look through the reflex sight, so is that the correct way to use if the reflex sight would happen to go out?

@@thebestofthebestsir47 I keep mine specifically for a reserve. Most of us only use the red dot and keep the backups folded and out of view. It is of course user preference. Try shooting with and without the sight up. Whatever works best for you is the way to go. Also pick your preferred red dot height. There's lower 1/3rd and there's absolute co-witness. I prefer absolute. There's a ton of reddit posts and KZbin videos on this. Again though, in the end, it's all about what works best for you
