    Default What makes Troy sights better?

    When shooters talk about rifle sights, it seems like most will end up recommending Troy sights as the best option in the market. In you opinion, what makes Troy sights more desirable than say Samson or Diamondback or any of the other aluminum sights available for the AR platform?

    Well I can't speak to Samson but Diamond head sights are junk. They are super flimsy and feel like they are made out of pot metal. I wouldn't even put them on an airsoft gun. My Troy sights are very solid , stout and lock up very tight. MBUS sights are also very good for an alternative.

    The plastic ones or the new MBUS Pro? I have a set of the plastic ones on an M&P 15/22 (which have served me well) but I wanted something a little beefier for my 5.56mm.

    Standard MBUS. The mbus pros imo, are very hard to use. The sight picture also sucks. I have a few rifles that have MBUS and they work wonderfully.

Randy exclaimed, "Mama, I been shot," and the three ran towards the cabin door. Vicki had heard the shot and Randy cry out for help, so she ran to the cabin door with baby Elisheba in her arms and held it open so that they could make their way inside for cover. As Kevin Harris made his way through the doorway, Horiuchi placed the cross hairs of his rifle's scope on the edge of the door and fired a second shot. The bullet penetrated the door window, passed through Vicki Weaver's head and struck Kevin Harris in the left arm and chest. The bullet had miraculously missed baby Elisheba. Vicki Weaver fell to her knees, still holding her baby, and cried out in agony for approximately 30 seconds before slumping to the floor and succumbing to her fatal injury. Kevin Harris and Randy Weaver lay on the floor moaning from the massive wounds they had suffered.
    As the echoes from the shots subsided, Randy and Sarah noticed that Vicki was not moving. Randy turned Vicki over and then screamed out in horror as he realized she was dead. Her skull had literally exploded and her face was unrecognizable. Randy and Sarah dragged Vicki's body away from the doorway and everyone sobbed uncontrollably.
    The psychological warfare became even worse the following day. "Good morning Mrs. Weaver," Fred Lanceley, an FBI negotiator, called out. "We had pancakes this morning. And what did you have for breakfast? Why don't you send your children out for some pancakes, Mrs. Weaver?" Following the statements made by the negotiator, the whole family began sobbing loudly. The phone, which had been placed outside the cabin door, rang continuously every 15 minutes as the negotiator continued yelling through the bull horn, at times stating that if they failed to come out, they were all going to die
