Tacfire AR Front & Rear 45 Degree Flip Up Spring Loaded Sights

The Tacfire AR Front & Rear 45 Degree Flip Up Spring Loaded Sights deliver rapid-deployment iron sight capability for shooters who need fast transitions between optics and unmagnified shooting. Constructed from T6 6061 black anodized aircraft-grade aluminum, these 45-degree offset sights are engineered for durability in high-round-count training environments and duty-heavy applications where reliable zero retention is non-negotiable.

The front sight features an adjustable A2 post with spring-loaded flip-up mechanism—a single button press deploys the sight and locks it into a fixed position to guarantee zero stability during fire. The rear sight offers dual-aperture design, enabling shooters to select the appropriate sight picture for short-range (close quarters) or extended-distance engagements. The 45-degree orientation positions these sights alongside a primary optic on the upper receiver, allowing instantaneous target acquisition if the primary system fails or becomes obscured. The lightweight design at 0.26 lbs per set adds minimal mass to the AR platform.

This sight set is built for AR platform users—whether law enforcement trainers conducting range qualification, military units requiring redundant aiming systems, or civilian shooters preparing backup iron sights alongside red-dot or magnified optics. The combination of durability-focused aluminum construction and spring-loaded deployment makes these sights effective for duty carbines, patrol rifles, and tactical training builds where seconds matter and mechanical reliability cannot be compromised.

Offset 45-degree iron sights have become standard practice on modern AR builds precisely because they solve the optics-failure problem without requiring sight re-zeroing or operator retraining. The Tacfire configuration is straightforward—no adjustment complexity, just proven mechanical function for when iron sights become the primary aiming system.
