Covered this topic in one of my previous posts:

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.

wiw that does help a lot... probably get the opsgear on then to match the rest of the stuff i ordered...wouldnt happen to know the O.D. of a J&J for an A-5????

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?
