the Ergo grip is ok. its skinnier than i thought it would be. it does feel good but my point was to have a beefier grip that the standard A2 frip and it is only a small bit bigger.
Sounds like I have what you wanted, while you got what I wanted
As for prices on flip up sights, it depends.
The first thing you need to consider is your gas block, is it the standard fixed type, or a railed block? If it's standard, you have to remove it, hopefully your muzzle device isn't permanent.
You'll be looking at $70+ for each sight, usually more like $85+ each. Theres a type that mounts to a rail system, or one that mounts to a railed gas block, and a type that
incorporates the gas block, for front sights. I hope I'm being clear, the point was, be sure you're buying the right one for your application.
In the rear, most guys seem to swear by the A.R.M.S. #40 One manufacturer seems a little cheaper on most items, Yankee Hill Machine or YHM... I'd go that route for front flip, (my front site is fixed) but stick with the ARMS 40 for rear, I like mine and it's pretty much worth the price.
Fixed front and folding rear, I have no probs with EOTech co-witness and nothing additional was required. That may change with, for example, any variety of YHM folding front sight.
Plus, if I want a classic A2 look, I can take off the optic and rear sight, and replace with a detachable carry handle. Flat top recievers are good stuff
and yes, it's definitely addicting
