[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Colt LE 6940 front sight

Posted: 7/27/2011 3:40:00 PM EDT

Will this fit the Colt LE 6920. I'm looking for a taper pin flip front sight, tired of seeing the front sight through my EOTech.

PRI has the FSB that you are looking for.

They aren't cheap.

You might have luck with a riser from LaRue and you can keep the same front sight gas-block LINK

Thanks, that may be the ticket. I needed some height on the EOTech.

If you do decide to replace the FSB, it would be a good time to just go ahead and replace it with a low profile gas block and add a 10-12" free float rail.

The 6940 has a monolithic rail so you would need a whole new upper if you wanted a new/longer rail.

ETA: looks like the OP said 6920 in the first post, I was a little confused

I had GG&G install their model on mine.
But they are around $200 and take months to get done, but well worth it.
