Any good recommendations for a good set of iron sights? Thinking Troy of Midwest.

Anything from a reputable manufacturer will be fine. I've personally used Troy and Magpul (mbus and pro). I prefer the pro since they have the slimist profile when folded. If these are truely going to be backups, I'd go with the mbus to save some coin. They are perfectly functional and durable sights for the backup role.

I've never had a complaint of the magpuls... https://shop.opticsplanet.com/magpul-mbus-front-flip-up-back-up-sight-gen-2.html?_iv_code=55-IRN-MAG247-MPIMAG247BLK-KIT1&utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=plusbox-beta&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI-P7A1NfY2AIVQZJ-Ch1vsQT3EAQYASABEgJZu_D_BwE

The Magpul sights are an excellent option. I didn’t believe in plastic sights until Rob at Bowers did a little demo for me. He took a rifle and jammed that Magpul front sight hard into the edge of his work bench. Didn’t hurt it a bit. It flexed or folded and popped right back into position ready to go. I doubt the Troy sights I was fond of running at the time would have faired as well.

Have most of the ones on the market in use, really cannot go wrong with any of them. Bottom line is what price point you want to be in.

Troy can eat a bag of dicks!
Don't ask, just Google it.

I have to say I'm a little scared of that.

^^^^^
Don't google "Troy eating a bag of Dicks". The results will probably not be good.

I would be interested to hear the criticism of Troy sights but not Troy eating a bag of dicks.

If you're unarmed, you are a victim
