Description

The Aim Sports MT201 is a low-profile rear flip-up sight built for AR-15 and M4-style rifles, giving you a proven iron sighting option that folds down flush against the rail when it's not in the fight. It runs a familiar A2-style dual aperture setup, so you get a large 0.200" hole for close, fast target work and a small 0.070" aperture for tighter groups at distance. The whole thing is machined from black anodized aircraft-grade aluminum, which keeps it light without feeling flimsy.

What Makes the MT201 Flip Up Worth a Look

The magic is in the ball-bearing pivot detent. Flip the sight up and it snaps into place with a positive click, locking solid so it won't flop around under recoil or while you're moving. The posi-lock design is meant to hold your zero when the sight is deployed, which is exactly what you want out of a backup. Windage is adjustable right at the aperture, coming in around 0.49 MOA per click on A4 rifles and 0.65 MOA on M4 carbines, so you can dial it in cleanly.

Pairing the MT201 With a Red Dot or Optic

At roughly 2.5 inches long and just under two ounces, this is a genuinely low-profile piece. Folded down, it sits out of the way and leaves room to co-witness or run a compact red dot or holographic optic up top. Users who've mounted it on their AR builds note it's compact enough to share the rail with a smaller optic while still standing up as a reliable set of irons when the batteries quit.

It fits AR-15 receivers where the rail sits on the same plane as the receiver, and it drops onto standard Picatinny like you'd expect. For anyone building out a modern sporting rifle who wants dependable backup irons in the rear without spending big, the MT201 is a straightforward, mechanically sound choice.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the MT201 rear flip up sight lock in the up position?

Yes. It uses a ball-bearing pivot detent that snaps the sight into place when you raise it, and the posi-lock design keeps it from moving around under recoil. That locked-up feel is what lets it hold zero when deployed so it stays true shot after shot.

Will the MT201 work alongside a red dot or optic?

It's designed to. At about 2.5 inches long and under two ounces, it stays low enough to leave room on the rail for a compact red dot or holographic sight up front. Folded down it tucks out of the way, then flips up as your backup irons when you need them.

What rifles does the Aim Sports MT201 fit?

The MT201 is built for AR-15 and M4-style rifles and mounts to standard Picatinny rail. It's meant for receivers where the gas block or rail sits on the same plane as the receiver, which covers most flat-top AR-15 setups.

What are the two apertures for on this sight?

The MT201 runs an A2-style dual aperture, same idea as classic AR irons. The larger 0.200-inch hole is for fast, close-range target acquisition, while the smaller 0.070-inch aperture tightens things up for more precise shots at distance. You flip between them depending on the situation.
