Description
The Scalarworks PEAK/01 Fixed Front Iron Sight (Scalarworks model SW1010) is the front half of a fixed backup sight set for MIL-STD-1913 Picatinny rails. Scalarworks CNC mills each Peak sight from 7075-T6 aluminum billet, with a streamlined profile free of protruding levers and knobs. The front sight adjusts for elevation at 0.5 MOA per click, a step chosen to match most red dot sights. It is built around a modern 15-inch sight radius rather than the 20-inch radius of the M16A2. It is for AR-pattern shooters who want a light, fixed front sight that stays out of the way.
