The Samson Manufacturing fixed rear sight brings serious durability to your rifle's backup optics setup. Built for shooters who demand reliability when it matters most, this Picatinny-mounted rear sight pairs rock-solid construction with the kind of dependable zero-holding performance you need on the range or in the field. If you're running a modern rifle with a top rail and want a no-nonsense alternative to electronic optics, a Samson fixed rear sight earns its place in your backup sighting system.
What sets this sight apart is its dual-aperture design—give you flexibility to dial in your sight picture depending on light conditions and shooting distance. The stainless steel clamp locks down to any Mil-spec 1913 Picatinny rail with the kind of mechanical grip that keeps your zero intact through hard use. The M4 co-witness height positions your rear aperture correctly relative to your primary optic, so if your scope or red dot goes down, you're back in the fight without re-zeroing. Samson designed this sight to work with standard aftermarket aperture replacements, so you're not locked into proprietary parts down the road.
This is built-to-last iron sight gear—the kind that doesn't need batteries, doesn't need adjustment unless you want it, and won't let you down. It's not intended for mounting on lower-height gas block rails, so make sure your Picatinny mounting surface is up to spec. Whether you're a precision rifle shooter, a tactical trainer, or just someone who believes in redundant aiming systems, the Samson fixed rear sight is engineered to stay true.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this rear sight work with my rifle's Picatinny rail?
Yes—the Samson fixed rear sight mounts to any standard 1913 Picatinny rail. Just make sure it's a full-height rail; this sight is not designed for lower-height gas block rails.
What's the co-witness height, and why does it matter?
This sight is set at M4 co-witness height, which means it aligns correctly with primary optics mounted on standard rifle rails. If your primary optic fails, you stay on target without re-zeroing your irons.
Can I replace the aperture?
Yes. The Samson sight accepts all aftermarket rear apertures with Mil-spec dimensions, so you can customize your sight picture without buying a new sight body.
Is this a backup sight or a primary sight?
The Samson fixed rear sight is built as a reliable backup or co-witness sight to work alongside a primary optic. It's also a solid choice if you prefer iron sights altogether—no batteries, no complications, just mechanical precision.
