"The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles. --Jeff Cooper"
My feedback
I was one of those dumbass.. til the mbus got loose from the heat. You shouldve seen my grouping. I couldve hit godzilla!
In all fairness, I run my front MBUS reversed. According to Magpul, the front can go either way, and the previous owner of the sight ground off the release lever on one side. So I'm kinda short of options till I go with another front sight. But yeah, mounting an MBUS on a standard gas block= bad juju.

On his bottom-shelf DPMS, at that. Oh well...more power to him, I guess.
sorry...

i have a matac (which IS used by our military) it folds towards the back of the rifle just like a mbus
I don't mind iron sights backwards. It's just a peephole. Why would it matter which way was the front when you're looking through a circle? Same with the front sight. It's a post.
I run my front sight reversed, for no other reason than it takes up less real estate on the rail, and I don't have to worry about clearance issues. Though I can't see any reason to run the rear sight reversed for the same reasoning.

Might be a forthcoming "Restriction" in the Feinstein bill.
"All firearms with open sights, are prohibited from being installed the forward and proper direction. Open sights are only allowed to be installed and used for function when installed backwards, sideways, upside-down-ways, slanted, skewed to the right/left/up/down, or in any otherwise manner to render them useless for acquiring a target."
