Product Overview
The Magpul MBUS 3 Front Sight represents the evolution of Magpul’s Back-Up Sight (MBUS) system, integrating core strengths and value from both the original MBUS and MBUS Pro lines into a streamlined, high-performance package. This iteration significantly reduces the sight’s footprint, mitigating snag hazards with a folded height of just 0.44 inches and a maximum width of 1.15 inches. While its aesthetic design draws from the MBUS Pro, the MBUS 3 Front Sight leverages impact-resistant polymer construction, ensuring robust durability without excess weight. Utilizing the proven spring-loaded deployment mechanism, the sight deploys rapidly via an ambidextrous push-button. When deployed, the MBUS 3 Front Sight aligns to standard AR-height, providing a consistent sight picture. Precision adjustments are facilitated through tool-less elevation controls, complementing an enhanced dual-width front sight post inspired by the MBUS Pro.
