The Yankee Hill Machine QDS Sight Set (brand part no. 5040H) is a matched front and rear flip-up sight set for the AR platform, finished in black hardcoat anodizing with a protective hooded front stem. YHM’s Quick Deploy System springs the sight up automatically at the push of a button, and both sights lock positively in the folded and deployed positions so there is no play at either extreme. Machined from aircraft-quality aluminum and hardcoat anodized to military specifications, the sights fold down to just 0.435 inches off the rail when not in use. The front sight mounts on the same plane as the rear using standard hardware, and this hooded-stem set pairs the YHM-5010 front sight with the YHM-5030H hooded rear sight. Built by Yankee Hill Machine, the hood adds extra protection for the front post in the field.
