AR15 / M16 Flip Up Front Sight

The UTG MNT-755 is a low profile flip-up front sight for AR15 and M16 rifles with a picatinny rail on the handguard. A cross-bolt clamp holds it to the rail, and the sight body folds flat when you are using an optic, then stands up when you need iron sights. The A2-style post threads up or down for elevation, and two protective ears guard it from knocks. The finish is matte black and the sight carries UTG's lifetime warranty. It suits shooters who run a red dot or scope and want a backup front sight that stays out of the way until it is needed.

Description

Low Profile Flip-Up Sight

The UTG MNT-755 is a folding front sight for AR15 and M16 rifles with a flat-top rail on the handguard. It works as a BUIS (backup iron sight): it stays folded flat while you shoot through an optic, and you flip it up if the optic fails or its battery dies. It suits shooters who run a red dot or scope and want a set of irons ready without a fixed front sight post sitting in the way.

Features

  • Picatinny Rail Mount — The base clamps onto a picatinny rail, the standardized slotted rail found on top of most modern AR handguards.
  • Cross-Bolt Clamp — A hex-head bolt runs through the base and tightens the clamp onto the rail so the sight holds its position.
  • Flip-Up Folding Design — The sight body pivots on a hinge pin, standing upright for use and lying flat along the rail when stowed.
  • Low Profile When Folded — Folded down, the sight sits low on the rail and keeps clear of your optic's field of view.
  • A2-Style Front Sight Post — The post threads into the sight body, so you can raise or lower it to adjust elevation the same way as a standard AR front sight.
  • Protective Ears — Two tall wings on either side of the post shield it from knocks and snags.
  • Marked Orientation — An "UP" arrow on the sight body shows which way it deploys, which makes installation straightforward.
  • Matte Black Finish — A non-reflective black finish keeps glare down and matches most black rifle furniture.
  • Lifetime Warranty — UTG backs the sight with its lifetime warranty.

Mounting And Fit

The MNT-755 fits any AR15 or M16 pattern rifle with a picatinny rail where the front sight would sit, including free-float handguards with a full-length top rail. Pair it with a flip-up rear sight to make a complete backup iron sight setup. The sight may arrive in either of two UTG retail boxes, labeled "AR15 Super Slim Flip-Up Front Sight" or "Tactical Low Profile Flip-Up Front Sight"; the sight inside is the same.

    I know the UTG haters are gonna come out of the woodwork but this little flip up front sight is legit. Machined aluminum, not polymer, and the posi-lock mechanism snaps up solid with zero wobble. Paired it with the matching UTG rear on my 16" midlength build and co-witnessed it with my Sig Romeo5. Zeroed in about 10 rounds.

    Spring loaded posi-lock snaps up tight with no play

    You need a standard 4-prong sight tool to adjust elevation, dosent come with one

    The UTG flip‑up sight folds flush against the rail and stays perfectly aligned when I raise it. It’s lightweight and built like a tank, so I trust it for every range session.

    Low‑profile design won’t snag on gear

    This flip up front sight locks into place with a satisfying click and holds zero really well even after flipping it up and down repeatedly. This thing feels sturdy and the low profile design keeps it out of the way when I'm using my red dot.

    works well and stores away small

    I bought a DPMS ORC as a range burner and this is what I use on it. It has improved my iron sight skills quite a bit.
