The design accommodates compact weapon lights such as the X300 and TLR-1 positioned forward of the sight, and the concave radius on either side is described by Daniel Defense as a great place to rest your thumb for easy, ambidextrous activation of the light. A front sight that shares the rail with a light is normally a compromise; this one was drawn with the light in place.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is one piece, machined from 6061-T6 aluminium with a Military Specification hard anodised finish, and it installs on any MIL-STD-1913 rail using a slotted fastener into a self-locking stainless steel thread insert. It weighs 1.1 oz (31 g), and it is designed to complement the A1.5 Fixed Rear Sight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn a UK straight-pull AR-15 built for irons, or carrying irons as a backup under a red dot, a fixed front sight has the same appeal it always did: nothing to deploy, nothing to forget.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy shooters choose the Rail Mounted Front Sight\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShaped for a weapon light\u003c\/strong\u003e — clears compact lights such as the X300 and TLR-1 mounted forward of it\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConcave thumb radius each side\u003c\/strong\u003e — ambidextrous light activation without breaking your grip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSnag-free profile\u003c\/strong\u003e — streamlined enough to stop catching on kit and slings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOne-piece construction\u003c\/strong\u003e — fixed, with nothing hinged or sprung\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e6061-T6 aluminium\u003c\/strong\u003e — Military Specification hard anodised\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e1.1 oz (31 g)\u003c\/strong\u003e — and it pairs with the A1.5 Fixed Rear Sight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat the Rail Mounted Front Sight fits\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFits any MIL-STD-1913 Picatinny rail — the top rail of a quad rail or a rail-topped free-float handguard — on AR-15\/M4 rifles including UK straight-pull AR-15 builds, and secures with a slotted fastener into a self-locking stainless steel thread insert.
