technically i think mbus 2.5's, but that's not a very practical solution.

It would be impossible to use fixed sights that sit that low. The reason standard sights are centered 1.5" high is so your cheek weld is natural on the stock. The only sights I know of that vary from the 1.5" standard are shorter and designed to be used with HK piston driven rifles that have a raised rail. They still achieve the same basic cheek weld (1.5") when installed on HK rifles.

I think you'll find the HK (Troy Micro Battle Sights) folding sights impossible to use comfortably on a standard AR-15.
