AFFORDABLE 522 SIGHTS FOUND?

[SW509]

They are made by MFI for standard Sig Rifles, including the 522. I've been grinding my teeth for the last 3 weeks looking for irons for a 522, mine was apparently an "optics ready" model, which is basically a sweetened term for absolute minimum for the rifle, but all i saw was complaints with the Williams Peep sights, and links to "Affordable" sig 556 sights at 200+ dollars retail. For the average person, that's a lot for a .22 rifle accessory. Anybody have any experience with these?

I'm a big fan of the Magpul flip up sights. They work well and are less than $100 for the pair.

No experience with the sights you've linked to though.

Well for 95  bucks i think i jumped the gun, but they were 30% off and i would have been disappointing to see the sale over or out of stock tomorrow. I'll put up a review when they arrive.

Looking foward to it.

Magpul flip sights wont work on the 522 unless you have the front rail hand guard version...there's no where to attach the front sight. The "gas block" on the front is flat on top, with the funky sig "weaver-style" dovetail.

Well, I got them in the mail 2 days ago, i'm working on getting them on but i've been kind of busy and the front sight is quite a job to install.
