The Kriss Low Profile Flip-Up Front Sight for AR-15 brings proven field-tested design to your rifle. Originally developed as OEM equipment for Kriss Vector platforms, this sight trades unnecessary bulk for a streamlined profile that stays out of your way until you need it. Whether you're running backup iron sights alongside an optic or setting up a pure iron setup, the low-profile flip-up design collapses to just .50" when folded—compact enough not to interfere with your primary glass or charging handle, yet instantly deployable when the moment demands it.
The build is straightforward and durable: a polymer construction in black that resists snag and shine, paired with a wide range of elevation adjustment to handle everything from .22 rimfire to full-power rifle rounds on AR platforms. That span of adjustment accommodation means you're not locked into one height-over-bore configuration—you can dial in your zero and keep it there across different ammunition or shooting distances. The textured adjustment knob is deliberately oversized so you can make corrections even with gloved hands, no fumbling required.
At 2" long when deployed and sitting on a slim base, this sight fits the low-profile ethos without compromising usability. If you've built an AR that needs a dependable, non-intrusive front sight that doesn't demand much real estate on your handguard, the Kriss flip-up delivers honest iron-sight backup in a form that won't bulk up your gun.

Frequently Asked Questions

The wide range of elevation adjustment accommodates a large spectrum of calibers and height-over-bore conditions, so you can dial it in for .223, 5.56, or other AR-15 rounds.
Can I adjust this sight with gloves on?
