The Kriss USA Defiance low-profile flip-up front sight provides a compact, stowable front sight solution for AR-platform firearms. This OEM-style front sight is the same flip sight supplied with the Kriss Vector and DMK22 platforms and folds to a very low profile when not in use. It features a wide elevation adjustment range to accommodate varying height-over-bore configurations and sight radii, plus a large textured knob for easier adjustment while wearing gloves. Constructed from steel with a black finish, the sight mounts directly to a Picatinny rail.

Engineered to stay out of sight when stowed yet provide straightforward, repeatable adjustment when deployed, this Defiance front sight balances a minimal profile with robust steel construction. The large textured knob and broad elevation range make it practical for a range of sight-over-bore setups on AR-platform rifles. Consider adding this sight to your setup for a low-profile, mechanically simple backup or primary iron-sight option.
