Dagger Defense Classic Hooded BUIS with Flush dial Adjustment for Back up Iron Sights

I bought these sights for one of my 9mm ar pistols because they are metal, cheap and had pretty good reviews. First off these things are rock solid. They stay firmly in place when folded down and lock up nicely and dont have much play when deployed. The first issue I had at the range to dial them in was my standard ar sight tool wouldn't fit so I never got the front sight post adjusted to the correct height so the front sights cover my point of impact. My second issue was with the rear sight. The aperture rolls back under recoil. It just wont snap firmly into place with the ball detent. I tried putting some blue loctite on the adjustment screw to see if it would help, and it did, but flipping back and forth for varying ranges loosened it up again. If it weren't for these issues, or if it had come with the proper size sight tool they'd be 5 stars.

For the price I was pleasantly surprised by the quality. They are well built, smooth moving and seem to lock into position very nicely. They dont lock in the down position which is good for quick deployment. The tension can be adjusted for a tighter or looser deployment, I prefer mine a little snug. The windage adjustment is spring tensioned, so should hold zero through quite a few rounds, yet is loose enough to adjust with two fingers. Not sure how well elevation adjusts, I need to order a front sight adjustment tool. Which would be the only downside I can see with these sights is no adjustment tool, but for the price thats just an inconvenience. Id highly recommend these sights for primary or back up sighting. Good quality, low profile when not needed and super easy install.

Yes, these are inexpensive sites. I know, you get what you pay for, but few things bothered me about these. The first, they lock into place. To remove them from the battery position, you have to push in on a pin to lower the site. To move or remove the site, a hex wrench is required. When the rear site is lowered, the close range reticle is forced into position. So, when you raise the sites again, you have have to adjust them back to long range. I haven't, nor do I know very many people who use close range.

I bought these as an inexpensive backup for an AR pistol; the front sight mounted perfectly and functions fine. The mounting screw and plate for the rear rail was improperly machined, and as such is unable to attach to the rail. I will try to find a replacement screw at the local hardware store. Obviously, I did not get a chance to test the sights yet, but at least the front sight is good. If the screw was properly machined, I feel like these would be decent sights at this price point - they lock solidly when flipped up and seem pretty stable.

pretty nice sights for the money. There are two small issues. The white logo is off center which is totally cosmetic, and the front sight slightly moves front to back as it doesnt lock perfectly. But for the money they are worth while.

A low cost solution for quick target acquisition on my AR... I love it. 😁 😻

Very nice sights for the money. I don’t like buying junk but I needed some mp5 style sights and these fit the description. The construction feels good and the materials look like they will hold up for many years. Only down side is the front sight has a tinge of slop when sights are in use. Has not affected accuracy.

They're pretty good, love the front sight as it reminds me of my childhood SKS. The rear sight is okay too, but it wiggles a little.
