Having a quick adjustable ranging feature on your back up irons is dumb as fuck. I recently got pick related as a gift after not running back up irons (fixed front sight). And it's all you need. just zero your backup sights for 50 or 36 yards and you are good to go. Tell me what imagined scenario you have in mind where you need to shoot beyond point blank range with your backup iron sights

Nope, you're correct. Especially with 5.56, you could just set it to 100 and use it as a point blank zero clear to 300 yards with no real problem. The concept of dialing your irons for range compensation is absurd.
>Tell me what imagined scenario you have in mind where you need to shoot beyond point blank range with your backup iron sights
The real reason is because older rifles had them for indirect volley fire that literally never happened. So then when boomers got ahold of the AR they said "what the actual fuck where is my range adjustment I need my range adjustment" even though they most definitively did not.

>The real reason is because older rifles had them for indirect volley fire that literally never happened.
they absolutely did the volley shit. It's just they did it in like the late 1800s. They were still lining up like Napoleon war style in the late 19th century because they didn't have a better way of organizing troops due to lack of radios or other types of communication and they would fucking volley fire at each other. That's why the US and bong governments both flipped out about "snipers" using 7mm mauser in the spanish American war and boer war and why we ditched the krag and the .30-40 and why the bongs tried to ditch the enfield and .303 before WWI
>>
>>64909258
there is zero appreciable difference in range between .30-40 krag and 30'06. That has nothing to do with anything dork.
>>
>>64909243
>>64909254
that's a lot of settings with basically no purpose. You can get a 5.56 rifle to shoot point blank out to 300 yards without a significant parabola since 5.56 is so flat shooting and you're not going to hit men outside of 300 yards anyway

read the army manual, no gunz. there is no 200m aiming point. it's not a target shooting optic for high power. the army manual literally says if someone is within 300 meters aim with both eyes open and start shooting when any of the red is on the target

plus, again, depending on how you set your sights
point blank with an AR is between 250 and 350 meters with the 3 most popular zeros

>3 niggerball fields is point blank
>>
>>64912509
>(you)
>>
point blank is how far you can shoot and hit a target in center mass without needing to adjust your sights, retard.
a 50 yard zero will put you like 4 or 5 inches low at 250 meters, so 250 meters is point blank
a 36 yard zero will put you like 3.5/4 inches low at 300 yards so 300-310 yards is point blank. actually if you go with the M16a1 manuals, they say you can push it to like 350 yards and still be considered acceptable point blank
And then again, if you have a 25 yard zero you're probably like 5 or 6 inches low at 350 meters so anything within 350 meters is point blank, no gunz
https://www.scribd.com/document/50874069/M16-M4-data
people don't fuck with the sights in combat, that's a known distance target shooting thing. there's basically ZERO drop between 0 and 200 meters and very little drop out to 300 meters. you don't shoot
>>
>>64912509
see>>64912551, retardo
>>
Well, would you look at that. An M4 firing M855 has a convenient 36 yard zero, with a maximum point blank range of 300 yards for an 8 inch target. Funny that.
>>
>>64912593
exactly. 5.56 is flat shooting as fuck and is point blank out to about as far a someone is reasonably going to shoot in combat with no magnification. even more so for a private citizen who probably isn't even going to need to shoot 300 yards
>>
>>64909277
Not that anon, but honestly I think most iron sights these days are actually horseshit and not nearly as accurate as the old vnotch iron sights on older rifles.
>>
>>64909225
>>64909240
>>64909261
>>64912551
Your squad comes across an enemy position, a wooden shack, measured with a hand held laser range finder to be 600 meters out.
The squad leader instructs everyone to zero at 600 meters and shoot suppressing fire, aimed single shots, at the muzzle flashes coming from the shack so that a separate maneuvering element can close in for the kill.

There you go, a use case for adjustable sights. It's not meant for scenarios where a soldier might see a single enemy soldier and immediately take a shot. It's for scenarios where you know the range, such as an ambush or a point target etc. and can coordinate for everyone to zero their rifles for that range such that your fire is more effective.
>>
>>64912974
and is there any evidence of anyone doing this in the last 100 years?
hitting an individual guy with an AR at 600 meters is very unlikely. it's not like the spanish American war where they were firing into columns 50 men wide
>>
>>64909225
>Tell me what imagined scenario you have in mind where you need to shoot beyond point blank range with your backup iron sights
any event in which i might have to use my rifle at extended range because i am in poverty and cannot afford an optic of any kind

point blanks is like 300 meters for an AR
>>64913359
>100 years ago
>zulu
didn't zulu happen in like the 1870s? They totally did volley fire at 600 yards back then, but that was because troops still lined up the same linear warfare napolianic formations they lined up in for decades (centuries?) at that point due to lack of modern tech allowing for better communication and organization. This was further exacerbated by the fact rifles could easily defeat cavalry (see the thin red line shit in crimea) and because indirect fire wouldn't be invented by the nips and bongs until like the 1890s early 1900s so men with rifles outranged artillery. And again, it's way easier to score hits when you are shooting at a line of 100 men, 50 across 2 deep as opposed to trying to hit one dude
>>
>>64909225
If you don't have irons capable of delivering at 300m on your primary, you are fat fuck neverfought. Optics are great right up the moment they break. And if you can't provide effective overwatch fires because your piece of shit broke, you are a useless bag of shit that is nothing but a fucking liability to the rest of the unit.
>>
>>64913437
see>>64912593
a 36 yard zero puts your point blank out to 300 yards, a 25 meter zero puts it out a little farther and a 50 yard zero puts it out to 250 yards, no gunz. you don't need a range drum to hit out to 300 meters with AR irons

And no, none of the bullshittery in this thread is "point blank". Wherever you noobs picked up that stupid phrase talking about accurate delivery at 300m is fucking retarded. If you're zeroed at 36/50m, your 300m bullshittery is fucking Kentucky windage. Good shooters with a shitload of practice can absolutely make that work. Dildos who exclusively use optics are 100% fucked with that set of problems.

>>64913602
>t. no gunz thirdie
holy shit you are FUCKING RETARDED. point blank literally just means the max distance you can shoot without having to adjust your sights. a 36 yard zero does not need Kentucky windage at 300 yards retardo. it's literally point and shoot. a 36 yard zero will put you like 3-4 inches low at 300 yards. that's still a hit on a center mass shot and it's only like 1 moa off. you don't need to aim high or guess or whatever, it's literally put front sight on center mass and pull the trigger out to like 350 or so yards, retardo

Okay, smartass. You are textbooking your way into the toilet. Let me spell it out for you: If your target is at the exact same altitude you are, yes. If you are shooting at approximately 500m above sea level, yes. If your atmospheric conditions are ideal, yes.

NONE of those happen in combat, numbskull. You're shoot up, down, lateral, all the fucking time. Overwatch shots get fucked with wind, rain, and atmospheric pressure all the fucking time. I slapped down more 300m pop-up targets in rifle quals during my career than you can possibly imagine. Did it more than once with a weapon handed to me out of a truck and had to do a double 3 rnd group zero before quals. So you're not doing anything telling me that horseshit. There's a reason the flip aperture on a standard M16 worked, dumbass.

In any case, I find it amusing you pimply-faced asshats keep arguing stats about AR bullshittery. M60 gunner for a fucking reason, yet that didn't prevent me from doing the deed every time with a rifle I'd never used before. You optics twats have no idea wtf you're doing.

There is absolutely nothing "antiquated" about iron sights on the modern battlefield. Whatever the dumbasses here had to say, the axiom still holds. If you don't have dumb iron sights on your weapon, and know how to use them, you are a fucking liability. Optics are fragile pieces of shit. Secondly, using the words "point blank" for field-zero at 300m is fucking ridiculous. Whatever you weirdos want to think, glass is fragile. Irons take punishment. If you're not prepared to switch, you are garbage.

it's technically not. it's like 100% acceptable point blank for center mass a torso but you're going to be like 6 to 8 inches low. like you won't change your aiming point, but the far zero for 36 and 50 yard zeros are like 280ish yards and 225ish yards
>>
>>64913567

Magpul and KAC, mainly.

In terms of zero retention, size, shit like that. Troys are big, take up a ton of space, and since they're spring tensioned that can wear down. Not even getting into that drop test.

>they're spring tensioned
they arent unless you are counting the button to unlock/lock it as a spring.

his retarded ass logic is he wants a ghost ring that doesn't have an ourside shell, like >>64918038 and >>64918031 because he wants to not see the rear sight and keep his head far back on the rifle. assuming he shoots at all, which he probably doesn't, he only shoots offhand. it's like that thing where you see ACOGs hanging way off the back of the receiver because the guy only ever shoots offhand

when you shoot prone or sitting your eye is closer to the rear sight. it's why high power shooters who use scopes have adjustable stocks with marked locations on the stock because they change their stock length to maintain the same eye relief on their scopes in different positions. I used to scope myself with an acog all the time because my head was closer to the scope when I shot the sitting stage than for standing or prone. when your eye is closer to the rear sight it appears bigger because things look smaller farther away and bigger when they are closer. and again I do the same shit he does where when I shoot offhand I basically shoot with the stock as high up on my shoulder as possible and I don't lean my head forwards at all and I get that same ghosting effect on my .22 doing that, where as when I shoot my match rifle prone, because my eye is so much closer to the rear sight I can use a tighter sight and the stuff outside the sight doesn't bug me or factor into my sight picture
it's a big reason why, historically, hunting rifles used to have receiver peeps, but target rifles had (and still have) tang peeps or extensions on the receiver peep that brings the rear sight closer to your eye

those arent much better you have range adjustment you are never going to use but its still a backup. the priority is backup.

im just going to stop cause im arguing with a guy who makes up shit in his head. then deflects more when proved wrong. you cant have a conversation with that.

if you have something like this and you dont know where the target is and you have to actually scan the environment through it you cant see shit. its the same with the magpuls to a significantly lesser extent. if you dont actually use other irons youd accept it as usable. and it is usable as a backup. but when you know the difference its there.
keep in mind this is strictly about irons. dont say some stupid shit like well just use a reddot if you want to be able to see things again.

notice how it's off the receiver and not on the receiver so it has shorter eye relief?
also just use a fucking red dot or an acog, retardo

>no im serious. the square makes it harder to see stuff that you arent directly aiming the gun at. you lose peripheral vision.
Retard, the actual aperture is going to grey out for the most part when you focus in on your FSP, if you're going to be sperging out about peripheral vision then everything above and to the sides is still there and anything under is going to be blocked by the gun itself. You're just coming up with bullshit to justify your fondness for a shitty BUIS that can't stand up to a drop-test.
>>
>>64918211
you dont even comprehend what im talking about. you keep making up shit in your mind then go off and refute those points.
you are the one who randomly assumed i wanted a ghost ring. im not even sure if you understand what that means.

>magpul sights are inferior to your basic ass carryhandle in sight picture.
You better be pretending anon
>>
love how one sped is pretending there's any real difference in sight picture between one AR15 aperture sight and another
>>
>>64918230
a1s are great really fun to use.
im not going to go to the safe to take more pictures cause frankly it would change nothing. this guys going to continue to not understand my point.
>>
>>64918241
this is a weapons board your going to argue over 9 vs 40 vs 45 you can argue about irons.
>>
>>64918244
anon he's saying you're a retard for making that claim he quoted.
>>
>>64918221
he's probably not focusing on the front sight
>>64918228
you're literally saying you want a ghost ring so you can maintain peripheral vision. Do you primarily shoot offhand or not, homo? do you shoot head up or nose to charging handle?
>>
>>64918308
yeah you dont understand shit. im not saying i want a ghostring. all these sights are ghostrings by default. im saying magpuls limit your peripheral vision compared to a troy or standard carryhandle. you havent said anything to prove this wrong. you just keep tangenting and making up headcannon.
>do you shoot head up or nose to charging handle?
middleish of stock roughly an inch away from being nose to charging handle.
ive got multiple period correct ars with different stock lengths. head position changes based on gun and stance.
if i had to categorize it bladed nam era stance without the chickenwing.
roughly something like this https://www.youtube.com/shorts/UMK-O4egzmI

>all these sights are ghostrings by default. im saying magpuls limit your peripheral vision compared to a troy or standard carryhandle.
yeah you want a ghost ring, you want the sight to ghost out and to not have anything outside the ring like the wings on the carry handle. you want a ghost ring
>>
>>64918433
the wings on the carry handle are fine.
you just keep making assumptions in your head. its impossble to talk to you.
>>
>>64918449
the wings on my carry handle obstruct my vison more than the fagpul sight

Reminder KAC Micro 600m can easily be found for less than $100 if you don't mind the USMC stamp.

that seems like a pretty useless feature. the only part of that that's slightly interesting is that you could zero it at 50 yards and then leave it at 300 yards. But even then it's pretty meh outside of K/D target range shooting because unless you are in actual combat 25/36/50 yard zeros don't actually make a difference at self defense ranges
