New Magpul MBUS: the Magpul Back Up Sights 3.0

Published by
Forrest Cooper

As Rifle and Carbine Optics continue to march forward, backup Iron Sights remain the foundation. A long-term staple in firearms accessories, Magpul's new backups are smaller, sleeker, and include many of the features that made the Magpul MBUS Pro series a cut above standard.

Magpul MBUS 3.0 Front Sight

The next evolution in our MBUS (Magpul® Back-Up Sight) line, the MBUS 3 incorporates the best features, strengths and value of our original MBUS and MBUS Pro Sights in a feature-packed back-up sight system.

Significantly reduced in size from the MBUS, it sits at just .44” when folded and 1.15” at its widest point. Its aesthetics are derived from the MBUS Pro, but the Magpul MBUS 3 Front Sight is constructed of our impact-resistant polymer, making it lightweight and extremely durable. Featuring the same spring-loaded technology as its predecessor, they can be deployed with an ambidextrous push-button. The MBUS 3 sits at standard AR-height when deployed.

The Magpul MBUS 3 Front Sight includes tool-less elevation adjustments and a dual width enhanced front sight similar to the MBUS Pro.

Made in the USA.

  • Tool-less elevation adjustment similar to MBUS Pro
  • Dual width enhanced front sight similar to MBUS Pro
