Troys are nice I love them and have a couple sets but I think I want something different for this rifle I'm not dead set on a carry handle but I want good qaulity for a great price probly under 75 but if I can find a troy for that I will most definitely buy it

If youre just looking for a flip-up rear, I would go with a troy or a magpul. Both proven, well-made designs. Some people tend to shy away from the MBUS's because theyre polymer, but I've never had a problem with them that I havent seen happen to troys or something of the like.
But if you want something on the A2 side of things, LMT makes a good fixed BUIS thats basically a carry-handle sight w/o the carry handle.
Daniel Defense makes something to the likes of this as well.
I love the Daniel Defense fixed rear sight. Solid, well made, light weight, affordable. And still leaves some top rail space should you decide to throw some kind of optics on it (versus the carry handle type that covers the entire rail).

About $80.

I put one on a rifle that I didn't plan on putting optics on either. In fact, eventually I ended up just swapping the upper for an A2 upper. But here it is with the Daniel Defense sight.

I've got a YHM A2 fixed rear sight (YHM-643K) for sale if you are interested.
See my post in accessories for sale. " Cleaning out the Gun Parts Drawer"

Stick to the A2 look, get a handle. Jensens has plenty on hand.

So I bought some magpul sights off fleabay and they are fake gay airsoft crap...
How could you tell? The reason I ask is that I bought some at a show awhile back at a REALLY good price and in a plain cardboard box. My first thought was that they were Chinese knock-offs. At the time, I went to Magpul's site and found their literature which explained the differences but the set I bought passed all the tests.
So at this point, I don't know if their a legitimate gen-1 set MBUS or the Chinese got better with their goods. For what it's worth, this was right around the time that Magpul released the Gen-2 so they may have just been clearing stock but that wouldn't explain the plain box.

i didnt realy look at them before i bid but i bided $15. but i just bought a bunch of shit from cheaper than dirt and they sent me a catalog so i just looked at the mbus in the catalog, mine have allen screws, magpul has flatheads, mine the knob is on the left, magpuls are on the right, this is how i was able to tell other then that the qaulity is about the same
This one is local- you can probably do a little better out of state- but this is the army issue unit

I prefer Troy or GG&G but I do have one of these as well.
