The Magpul MBUS Rear Flip-Up Sight in Flat Dark Earth is a backup iron sight built to stay out of the way until you need it. Designed as a secondary aiming option for AR-15, M16, and other Picatinny-railed rifles, this rear flip-up sight deploys with one motion and stows flat when your primary optic is doing the work. Its low-profile, streamlined design won't catch on brush, slings, or gear in the field—and it locks securely in place once deployed.
The ambidextrous release mechanism means you can flip the sight up or down from either side of the rifle, which matters when you're moving fast or shooting from an unconventional position. The spring-loaded action is intuitive: tap the grooved tabs to deploy, tap them again to fold it down. Since it uses less than an inch of Picatinny rail space, it won't crowd your handguard or top receiver, leaving room for your primary optic, laser, light, or other mission-critical gear. The steel crossbolt keeps everything locked tight with zero wobble.
The rear sight ships with two different apertures—a larger .185" peep for quick target acquisition in lower light or stress situations, and a smaller .070" peep for precision work at distance. Windage is adjustable, so you can dial in your backup zero once and rely on it. Magpul engineered the sight to match the height over bore of a standard A2 iron sight, which means it'll cowitness with most modern optics if you want that added layer of redundancy.
Whether you're running a modern optics-first setup or just want a fail-safe backup, the MBUS rear sight is trusted by shooters who understand that gear needs to work when called upon and stay invisible when it isn't. The Flat Dark Earth finish blends with most tactical and hunting platforms.
