Built for shooters who demand a dependable backup sight without unnecessary bulk, the MFT Extreme Duty Metal Back Up Sight (BUIS) Front delivers a rugged, minimalist solution for compatible rifle platforms. Its low-profile design is engineered to stay out of the way of optics and other rail-mounted equipment while providing a durable mechanical sighting option when needed.
The front sight features an AK-pattern front sight post that's adjustable for elevation, giving you a straightforward way to establish the desired point of impact. The post is threaded for AK-pattern compatibility, making it a practical choice for configurations designed around that sight standard.
MFT has focused the Extreme Duty BUIS on simplicity and durability. The design eliminates traditional detents and springs from the sight post assembly, reducing friction points and unnecessary hardware. Fewer individual components mean fewer potential failure points, while the steel construction provides a solid foundation for a hard-use sighting system.
The low-profile base tucks neatly beneath compatible optics and forward-mounted rail equipment, helping preserve valuable space on a modern rifle setup. When the sight is needed, the manual flip-up arm allows you to raise it into position. Positive detents hold the sight securely in both the up and down positions, giving you a consistent configuration whether the sight is deployed or stowed.
Construction is another area where the Extreme Duty BUIS stands apart. The sight is CNC machined entirely from steel, with no cast components used in its construction. This all-steel design provides a robust feel while maintaining the streamlined profile that makes the sight easy to integrate into a broader equipment setup.
A nitride coating protects the sight's exterior while providing a subdued black finish. Corrosion-resistant hardware further enhances its durability, making the sight well suited to demanding environments where equipment may encounter moisture, dirt, and regular handling.
Installation is designed around a 1913 Picatinny rail, providing compatibility with a wide range of firearms and rail systems using that mounting standard. The manual operation keeps deployment simple, while the compact profile minimizes interference with other accessories.
For shooters looking to add a rugged mechanical backup sight without cluttering their rail space, the MFT Extreme Duty Metal BUIS offers a focused combination of strength, simplicity, and compact design. Its all-steel CNC construction, AK-pattern front post, positive detents, nitride finish, and Picatinny mounting interface make it a practical addition to compatible rifle configurations.
