Re: Whats the best Iron Sights for AR-10 off the Rail?
If you're mounting the front sight on the quad rail and if the quad rail is the same height as the receiver, then an AR15 front sight works fine. If you were to mount the front sight onto an AR10 gas block, then you need a taller AR10 specific front sight such as those available from GG&G or MI due to the AR10 receiver being approximately .1" higher over the bore than an AR15 receiver.

I like Troys also. Their rear flip down will fit under my EOTECH 3X on a flip mount also which is nice.

Very nice. I will put Troy on the short list. I did notice in the the Armalite Catalog that the pic of the Front sight for the AR10 is shorter than that of the AR15 front sight. Just in the pic I understand the reciever being taller. It was weird. Anyways I really one a stet of sights in Flat Dark Earth with I know MI has and Magpul has in there MOE line.

Let's be more specific. Troy's are great and all, but you have to try the dioptic version. And who doesn't like a little radioactive glow on their sights?
