Magpul MBUS Pro Rear - Profile

This week, Magpul Industries is introducing the MBUS Pro front and rear back up sight featuring all steel construction. They are freaking awesome. Right out of the gate, I know some of you are going to say that they ripped off this company or that company. Ok, got it. Now, check the price. MSRP for the Front is $84.95 and Rear is $104.95.

Magpul MBUS Sizes

Naturally, they are Mil Std 1913 compatible and feature positive detents for both up and down functions. Additionally, they are narrow so that they won’t get in the way of other devices such as lasers.

Magpul MBUS Pro Front

The MBUS Pro front sight integrates a rotary-style elevation adjustment knob so no more tools and stows just .432″ above the rail height with standard AR front sight height when deployed for use.

The Rear MBUS Pro is dual aperture and adjustable for windage.

Magpul MBUS Pro Rear

The Rear Sight is .375″ above the rail when stowed and extends to full AR height when in use.
