Took a bunch more but can't get them small enough.
Go one pic of front sight and one pic of rear sight and one pic of the rifle as it will be used.
Still waiting on red dot to arrive.
Been working with these cpdefense mags and they are turning into some very good mags.

The front sight being finger adjustable is a good thing. No clue why others don't or didn't do the same.
Not real confident about the durability but that is because of my previous experience with Leapers BUIS.
When you get some experience with that AT3, would appreciate your opinion.
Big thing I look for with the dot sights in priority is (1) their ability to zero; (2) holding the zero after being turned off then back on; (3) how well the dot can be seen in bright sun or against a light background.
A big eye opener for me was using some over snow, very light colored ground, and bright sun. The issued M-68 and my civilian Comp M2 had enough power so you could still see the dot in these bright conditions and when shooting into the sun. Less expensive civilian models were rendered unusable in the same conditions. Not enough power to see the dot. I also used a gigantic M-68 on the M-2 machinegun. Surprisingly, it actually stayed on that thing when shooting and didn't break! Way better than those iron sights on the M-2.
As for the lazer, not sure why they have one at all on the sight but hopefully it won't eat up batteries like the green one I have. That green one I have is pretty powerful and you could see the beam pretty easily to 50 yards during the day. At night it went pretty far but the beam opened up pretty quickly, too. Learned that at night the green beam worked but didn't illuminate particularly well with the naked eye. Not well enough to see clearly without NVD's. So, although fun to hip shoot at 50 yards, the battery lasted maybe thirty seconds of use! I took the thing off and it sits somewhere in the pile of 'good ideas' that I spent a fortune on over the years.
So do tell us how these things work out for you.
