A standard AR front post covers your target and leaves you guessing where dead center is. The KNS Precision Crosshairs Standard Hooded Front Sight fixes that by replacing your post with a CNC-machined sight body that carries a fine crosshair reticle inside a .240 aperture. The result is a sight picture that feels a lot like looking through a scope, letting you place your aim point right on the bullseye instead of holding on top of a fat post.
The crosshairs are made from heat-treated beryllium in a thin .010-diameter wire, so they hold up to hard use and keep their zero. The hood adds a .250 shield around the reticle that cuts down on glare from reflected light and gives the delicate crosshair extra protection for rough range days and field work. It runs a matte black finish over brass, which keeps things low-glare and easy on the eyes when you settle in behind the sights.
Installation is about as painless as it gets. This sight drops into the standard front sight housing the same way your factory post does, so there are no modifications and no special tools required. It fits AR-15, M16, AR-10, and SR25 rifles with standard sight housings, and it plays nice with factory A2 rear sights, backup iron sights, and variable-diopter target setups.
Folks who run irons for precision work, competition, or as a backup behind a red dot tend to notice the difference right away, especially when tightening up vertical stringing. The fine crosshair rewards good eyes and steady technique. A common trick among owners is a dab of bright paint on the wires to make them pop in lower light, since the thin reticle can get harder to pick up as the sun drops. Made in Fredericksburg, Texas and backed by a lifetime warranty from KNS Precision.
Yes, it drops into any standard AR-15 front sight housing and also fits M16, AR-10, and SR25 rifles with standard sight towers. It replaces your factory post directly with no modifications and no special tools. Just swap it in the same way you would install a mil-spec post.
It does. The KNS crosshair sight is compatible with factory A2 rear sights, backup iron sights, and variable-diopter target sights. It also co-witnesses well as a backup behind a red dot.
The .010 crosshair wire is fine and precise, which is great for aiming but can get harder to pick up as light fades. A lot of owners add a dab of bright paint to the wires so the reticle stands out in dimmer conditions. In good light it gives a clean, scope-like sight picture.
The crosshairs are made from heat-treated beryllium for strength and long service life, and the .250 hood shields them from glare and knocks. KNS builds these to hold zero through hard use and backs them with a lifetime warranty. They are made in the USA in Fredericksburg, Texas.
