Polymer or Metal doesn't matter much. I'd just not rather spend $100 if I don't have to (magpul). It's not going to be anything more than a woods gun, but I'd really prefer folding sights over fixed.
Any ideas? Thanks

Well,
I understand just a woods gun...but it is still a weapon. As such my opinion is any little thing I can do to give me an advantage is worth it...even if there is very little chance to need this weapon Now if you have a fsb then you only need the rear mbus... Myself I run and stock mbus here at my place...I like spares... An honestly do you want to buy some paintball sight that won't hold zero... The mbus are gtg. Ymmv Bret |

ARMS Probably can get these for about $80. 
I probably would just stick with the Magpul MBUS Gen 2s! $80

Magpul MBUS, IMO.
Make sure you get the gen 2 and print off the user manual prior to install and zero. Look on Amazon and you can usually find a set for less than $80, not including shipping. |

Plenty of Matech flip up BUIS's on the Equipment Exchange in the $40 for new/used.

I'll second and say again...mbus I have lots of buis's but all but my sniper rifle has mbus on them... Just curious...does anyone still have the gen 1's new yet... I know about the knock off but I haven't seen a gen 1 in the wild for awhile now... Bret |

Here's something to consider. it just dawned on me recently. You never want a adjustment knob on a optic that can be turned by hitting something on a hard use gun.
On something like a scope or Aimpoint the adjustment knobs should be covered with a cap. On a rear buis I am starting to like sights like the "TROY" because you need a bullet tip to adjust it. |

Your BUIS will be down 99% of the time. Are you really that worried about losing your zero on a folder read sight? OP, as someone who has owned Troy, KAC, MBUS, etc. They all work fine. If cost is a real issue, find a set of used MBUS on the EE and you'll be fine. |
