Frequently Asked Questions
Will these sights work as a primary iron sight setup or only as a backup?
The NcStar Pro AR Flip-Up sights can function as either a primary or backup sighting system. They are fully capable of serving as your main iron sights on a stripped AR-15 build, though they are especially popular as backup iron sights (BUIS) used alongside red dot optics or magnified scopes for a co-witnessed or offset sighting option.
Are these sights compatible with standard AR-15 uppers and handguards?
Yes, as long as your AR-15 upper receiver, handguard, or free-float rail features a Picatinny Mil-STD 1913 rail section, these sights will mount securely. They are not designed for proprietary or non-Picatinny rail systems such as KeyMod or M-LOK without an appropriate adapter.
Can I adjust the sights for windage and elevation?
The rear sight offers windage adjustment via the dual aperture design, and the front sight post is elevation-adjustable using a standard front sight adjustment tool. This allows you to zero the sights to your specific rifle and ammunition for accurate shot placement at your intended distances.
