The ARMS #41 B-L-P Folding Front Sight offers a robust, pinned mounting solution for those seeking maximum stability and historical accuracy in their rifle build. Unlike the screw-mounted B-L version, the B-L-P model is secured with traditional taper pins, requiring installation by a qualified gunsmith. This ensures a rock-solid attachment to the barrel, making it the ideal choice for anyone creating a military-correct clone of rifles like the SAM-R, which originally featured a pinned Knight's Armament flip-up front sight.
Perfect for use with rifles where precision and authenticity are critical, this front sight folds down when not in use and deploys instantly when needed. Built to last, it is designed to handle tough conditions while maintaining accuracy in any situation.
- Pinned installation: Secured with taper pins for maximum stability, gunsmith installation required.
- Durable steel construction: Engineered to withstand tough environments.
- Bayonet lug: Military-correct for clone builds.
- Fixed fit: Ideal for rifles needing a rock-solid, permanent installation.
- Combat-proven design: Reliable and battle-tested.
For the SAM-R or other military-correct rifles like the KAC SR-16 CQB, the A.R.M.S. #41 B-L-P front sight offers the pinned installation required to mirror original designs. Just like the Knight’s Armament gas block, which was also pinned, this front sight provides the solid, secure fit favored by military units. Law enforcement and military teams historically opted for pinned front sights to ensure durability under stress, making this model an essential part of any rifle aiming for historical and functional authenticity.
The sight folds down when optics are the priority, but springs into action when iron sights are needed. This versatility mirrors the design philosophy of military units adapting their rifles for both optics and traditional sighting options, ensuring reliability in dynamic environments.
