Overview
The Magpul MBUS (Magpul Back-Up Sight) Gen 2 Rear Sight provides a robust, reliable, and space-efficient aiming solution. Engineered as a secondary sighting system, it integrates seamlessly with 1913 Picatinny rail-equipped firearms, with specific design optimizations for the AR-15/M16 platform. Its construction prioritizes functionality and durability for field deployment.
Key Features
Robust Construction
Constructed from a durable, impact-resistant polymer, the MBUS Gen 2 is engineered to withstand operational stressors. This material selection ensures consistent performance and structural integrity under varied environmental conditions, offering a weight-efficient alternative to metallic sights without compromising reliability.
Integrated Functionality
The sight features a spring-loaded, ambidextrous deployment mechanism, facilitating rapid presentation. Its low-profile, folding design mitigates snag hazards and allows for co-witnessing with various optic systems when stowed. A positive detent system secures the sight in both deployed and folded positions.
Precision Adjustment
The MBUS Gen 2 Rear Sight incorporates a dual-aperture system: a large aperture for rapid target acquisition and a smaller, precision aperture for refined aiming. Windage adjustments are executed via a knurled click-adjust knob, providing tactile and audibly discernible feedback for precise zeroing and corrections.
Platform Compatibility
Designed for broad utility, this sight mounts directly to any standard 1913 Picatinny rail. While compatible with a wide array of firearms, its dimensions and operational characteristics are specifically optimized for integration with the AR-15 and M16 rifle platforms, ensuring proper sight picture and clearance.
