I noticed that the DPMS patterned upper receiver has a different height rail from the standard AR. It appears to be about 0.060" higher from the barrel centerline, maybe more.
The barrel I have is a 20" rifle length gas system barrel with a standard front sight ( non F marked).
Based on this, how do I select a rear sight? It would seem that a standard rear sight would require a taller front sight post.
Any input is appreciated.
