I'm looking for a front sight that can either be mounted to a magpul doe hanguard or a a .725 od. barrel, I've got a low profile gas block on it now and about 70-80 bucks to do it, so what are my options?
 
Magpul DOE? I assume you meant MOE. I don't know how reliable sights mounted to a MOE handguard would be. Or how you would be able to get the front sight to the correct elevation.

You can replace low pro gas block with either an A2 FSB or railed gas block then add a front sight. If your current gas block is pinned, you can get a clamp on gas block or FSB. Save the low pro and pin in case you want to put it back on later. Armalite makes a great clamp on FSB.

Disspators style ARs use a fornt sight out past the gas block. Most are pinned. Find a clamp on A2 FSB that matches the diameter of your barreL.

You can replace your MOE handguard with a drop in quad rail. UTG, Troy, Daniel Defense and a few others make them.
 
A Google of AR15 clamp on front sight should get you going.

I use a clamp on variation on my AR10 setup:

Really depends on how good you want and what you want to actually spend. Brownells / Sinclair are a good source start.
