Quoted: Quoted: What I'd LOVE is an A1 with quick release leavers instead of the protruding screws.  Bill Me too? If just the rear sight without the carry handle will do, LaRue makes one with a lever. http://stores.homestead.com/Laruetactical/Detail.bok?no=29 |

Quoted: I like the Daniel Defense A1.5 Rear Sight. http://www.danieldefense.com/img/product/d34485c4f6c5b13036e884a504701695.jpg I do too, but those guys were asking about levers.  |

Quoted:
I have 3 of the A1 Carry Handles and really like them. The plastic nuts included with the handle from CNC Guns are garbage, so you need to replace them with real steel carry handle nuts. I used A2 apertures with the A1 components. The one I have on my 9mm has the XS same plane aperture since I don't need the range changing aperture.. +1 - Except for the nuts, the CNC Guns carry handle is good kit. I put same plane apertures on mine because I rarely get an opportunity to shoot past 200. Quoted:

How do you adjust the A1 for different elevations?

So you are only good for the 50-200 range?

These are cool. It would be great chopped off like the LMT BUIS. I remember years ago he made an A1 BUIS, I bought one but it had no crossbolt. So, confidence was not too high and I sold it before I used it. IMO that's exactly what this is. The similar design grabbed my attention. Yep those are great except the are using the same aperture the use on their flip sights. The small aperture has the bevel you can see in the pic. It is very distracting as it produces glare. The bevel is there for fold down clearance with the flip sight. Are you listening Troy Industries? |

Just curious as to the limitations of the A1. At this point, I like my A2 with the RIBZ for range use. I can still set it at 50 yard setting for the same zero as the A1. I'd like to change my 11.5" KISS over to an A1 upper receiver. Anyone like to trade uppers? |

I got a steal on a bushmaster A2 handle.
I will still get one of the A1 handles here after the holidays. Is this the best way to zero the A2 sights? |

It becomes a matter of knowing your hold over and leading your threat. +1 - IIRC the farthest pop-up targets on the qualification range were at 300 meters when the Army issued the A1, and they weren;t too hard to knock down. The rear sigh elevation adjustments were added for the Marines. The Canadians and others who use the Diemaco/Colt Canada products seem to do fine without them... |

Free plug for cncguns.
The quality of the Detachable A1 rear sights I have is flawless, truly aerospace grade work. Gotta get me at least one of those A1D carry handles too. |

Just put the sights on my CNC A1 handle last night. I see why he sells them without the sights installed. Was a PITA until I got it done. Think I can do one ina few minutes now!
