    Looks like you've got your rear MBUS sight mounted on backwards. Typically, folks will mount it facing the other direction, with the cross bolt mounted through the farthest rear section of rail. This gives you the right amount of eye relief, as well as extending your sight radius, thus increasing accuracy.

    Now that I looked a little harder, the front is on backwards as well. I would mount it as far as you can forward on your rail, without the body the body of the sight hanging off.

    Thanks guys!

    I've been told about my sights before and I personally prefer it this way as I like the way it sits on the AR for some reason? Maybe I'm foolish and should do it the right way lol.

    Finally get to post in this thread. Just getting started. DPMS with Magpul goodies. Trying to round up some ammo before I go any further. Will add a CTR stock and optic of some kind, either a strikefire or variable scope with quick detatch base so I can use irons when I want to.
