Although an in-person version of SHOT Show will not happen this year, Magpul is keeping up their tradition of announcing new products the week before the event.
The first two are the new MBUS 3 – Front and Rear sights. I am very excited about these.
The latest version of the MBUS (Magpul Back-Up Sight), the MBUS 3 is constructed from impact-resistant polymer, making it lightweight and extremely durable. It looks more like the MBUS Pro than the original model and still features the same spring-loaded technology as its predecessor, simple deployment with an ambidextrous push-button.
Both made from polymer, Magpul has significantly reduced the footprint of the MBUS 3 from the MBUS. The new models sit at just .44” when folded and 1.15” at its widest point.
The sights are M1913 Picatinny rail compatible but the front sight shouldn’t be mounted on an AR15 direct gas block mount
Both front and rear will be available in Black, FDE and OF Green.
Now is the best part, the price. The front sight is $39.95 and $59.95 for the rear.
MBUS 3 – Front
The MBUS 3 Front Sight includes tool-less elevation adjustments and a dual width enhanced front sight similar to the MBUS Pro. It is standard AR-height when deployed.
MBUS 3 – Rear
The rear sight includes a rapid-select aperture system.
