Troy Industries BattleSight, Rear Folding Sight, Di-Optic Aperture, Picatinny, Black Finish (SSIG-DOA-RFBT-00)

As other reviewers have noted there are multiple versions of the rear DOA BUIS. The version I receive from Amazon is the current version.I emailed Troy Industries and confirmed with their CSR that the updated version of the DOA is marked "0-200 and 300-600""The apertures are marked 0-200M and 300-600M on the new sights. Lot NE-16676 was manufactured in April 2013."Reference the Lot # on your sight (on the bottom) if the number is later than mine listed above you can gauge when it was manufactured.Product Review:These sights are unmatched in quality and performance. They are extremely sturdy and hold zero perfectly. They are most expensive than most sights but I made this purchase expecting to keep them for generations.DOA Review:Initially I was skeptical of the DOA sights (Di-optic Aperture) and even considered returning them for the standard ring sight but I am very glad that I did not.The close range 0-200M range aperture is undoubtedly better. The square shape allows my eye to very naturally center the FSP perfectly. The 4 points in the rear sight are easy to connect and determine perfect center. As someone who had issues centering the FSP in a standard circle sight this was an amazing upgrade allowing for MUCH faster target acquisition.The medium/long range sight 300-600M was even more confusing initially. Think of it as a pistol sight, you need to line the FSP up perfectly with the notch in the rear sight. I was skeptical at first but after hitting the range it felt extremely natural. I really like having an unobstructed view of the target with the open style aperture.Quality product all around.

Do you have trouble shooting with two eyes open without going cross-eyed trying to concentrate on the front sight post? This actually helps to correct that issue; somehow the shape just works. It is the perfect shape that works well with the A2 style front sight (lining up a circle and a "v" is harder than lining up a "v" with a "v" if that makes sense). You can also flip it to the smaller aperture for more precision or longer range shots. With that said, I've never had to do that, and I've had good accuracy out to 100 yards with the larger aperture.Best rear sight for target acquisition and especially CQB. It's tough, easy to flip up, and attaches securly. I've had one on my duty rifle (which gets banged around a lot) for over seven years without issue. (And no, I didn't get paid to write this- I actually use and depend on this product). Hope that helps- if you get it, practice with it, and I'm pretty sure you'll love it too.

This is by far the coolest, and useful set of AR sights I have used. They are super durable as all Troy products are. They are easy to mount and utilize. The diamond shaped aperture make for faster aiming by giving you a level point of reference to align front sight post wings (I paired these with Troy Front folding M4 style sights) . What wasn't mentioned but is definitely a bonus, in the instructions on the back of the package the diamond shape also allows for some different aiming elements out to 600 yds. I am very happy that I ponied up the difference over some its competition, because they are far better construction and more thoughtful in execution.

Amazing sights, get the Amazon combo that tells you what other people bought with this sight, get the V shaped front sight, and the tool! it's really hard to adjust the front sight efficiently without it...The reason I think that these sights are one of the best on the market is that I sighted in my sights 2 years ago, and my vortex strike eagel wouldn't hold zero (I sighted it in at 6x power at 100, could not hold zero) sent it back, but I had a competition in 3 days (2 gun). I went to the range to check to see if the iron sights we're still zeroed, and to my amazment still held zero.I shot the competition and which multiple targets were out to 350yds, and the sights handled it like a champ. Ranked 15 out of 38 shooters.

I purchased the set and i really like them as BUIS. They are very sturdy, i like the sight picture, and made with high quality all around. The only reason I didn't give them 5 stars is because of the price. I know they are competitive in price with other high-end BUIS, but i think those are overpriced as well. Hard to explain why two small pieces of steel could be valued at nearly $200, but i suppose it is the nature of the market. If money isn't an object, then i definitely recommend these BUIS, but they are by NO MEANS a good value.... If value is what you are looking for then check out the MAGPUL BUIS... both their composite ones (cheapest for good quality) and their Pro versions (steel) are a much better value, but I still like the Troy sights more.

Great piece, solid and reliable.I put it on a flat top 16" middy, and it is everything that is expected from Troy Ind. I figure when you're looking at sights for your gun, why would you settle? Don't cheap out and go for some of the lower cost sights, I have the absolute confidence in this piece. I trust that it would come up in the same position time after time even if it has been bumped or dropped, it is a complete tier above most of the flip ups out there. I know there are people that don't trust anything but fixed sights, but once you see how solid this thing is I think you will want to give it a try on an optics ready receiver.Cons are only on my specific order.The piece was not the same as the one pictured. After some investigation I got word from Troy that they were in the process of launching the new model and some sites were not yet updated. So while the picture was the old gen, I received the new one. So I guess I can't really complain but it would still be nice to get amazon updated.Also there was a small chip on the base of mine, purely cosmetic so I elected to keep it and the seller gave me a discount. Still it would have been noticeable upon inspection and for the price I would expect that it would have been caught.
