GG&G Rear Flip Up Sight and MAD

[Dale Rabideau]

I have two questions concerning GG&G's rear flip up:

1) Can anyone who has worked with both the rear flip up sight and the MAD (Mulitple Aperture Device) give a compare/contrast why they would choose one over the other for work from 0-250 meters?

2) I have only found them in the Bushmaster catalog ($119.95 and $129.95 respectively). I searched Shotgun News with no luck. Are there better prices available and where might they be?

Thanks,

Dale Rabideau

I received a quick reply from Ted on the AR15 list pointing me to www.aspila.com for good prices on GG&G.

Any thoughts pro/con between the traditional A2 sights and the MAD with 4 aperatures?

Having only seen both via pictures, it appears that the MAD is more sturdily built. The MAD also appears to block one's peripherial view less than the A2 sight.

It looks like I am talking myself into the MAD.
