FAQ:

Q: What are offset iron sights?

A: Offset iron sights, all called canted sights, allow for instantaneous access to physical iron sights by simply tilting the rifle 45-degrees. These are most commonly used as a backup to either a red dot or some other top-mounted optic, which can block the normal iron sight plane – making flip up iron sights impossible to use.

Q: How long does it take to install canted iron sights?

A: Most sets of canted iron sights can be installed in about ten minutes if you’re taking your time. Make sure you pick up a set that is compatible with your rail system, whatever that may be, and follow the instructions carefully – beyond that there are a few tips of the trade, so to speak.

Q: Why do people use canted sights?

A: Similarly, some people pair an optic with a laser or light, which can eat rail space. Much like a variable powered optic example, shifting sights to the side opens up top rail space for other accessories. In any case, access to physical iron sights is critical and canted sights provide a unique level of flexibility to the user.

Q: Why choose iron sights for AR?

A: This redundancy reduces the likelihood of failure; as they say “one is none, two is one”. To ensure complete functional utility of your AR it’s critical to maintain an alternative to an optic — which is where physical iron sights come in. 2. Speed of Transition
