Covered this topic in one of my previous posts:
http://www.tippmann.com/forum/wwf77a/forum_posts.asp?TID=174 641&KW=dustin85

That being said, since then, RAP4's front sights do include a front sight post, however, it is permanently fixed (not adjustable for elevation like on the real one...which, for most users, should not be an issue)

Hope that helps.

I believe they are all 7/8" OD....can anyone back me up on that?

just to be sure...a pair of vernier calipers will solve that question for sure. If that is the case though, as far as I know all the Opsgear front sights are made for their 1" OD barrels...might work if you use some shims or electrical tape?
