New Chaos HK style Sights

[cvhanh20 1,052]

We will be making these for our Chaos Extended Quad Rail although they will fit any 1913 Mil Std. rail, after tapping a couple holes. These are very low profile, and very light. These sit low enough you wouldn't need a cheek rest. Our Extended rail is already the lowest rail on the market and hugs the top of the dust cover and the HK style sights I have come across just sit to high, so out of need we will be manufacturing our own, these will maintain the quality and look that Chaos has come to be known for. They we be 100% USA made as every Chaos part is!!!! For Chaos Extended quad owners already out there, we will be offering for a small fee, to drill & tap your rail for these sights. Here's a taste.

Why not make them "clamp on" to reach a much larger customer base?

Coupla questions... First, Boba Debt's question: why not just make M1913-compatible clamp-on sights? Two, how high off the rail does the aperture sit?

Nice work Cameron, I'm interested even though I just bought mbus sights.

I have been searching for something similar to these for a while!

I'm glad you posted this before I bought something not quite as good.

 

Is there an ETA for these? What about a back-order waiting list or pre-order?

I'll be one of the first in line.

Nice cad work Cameron. Exciting stuff! I'm looking forward to seeing them:)

Cameron, are these utilizing actual HK parts on your own base for the rear sight? If so, any plans on selling separate components, (complete front sight and the rear base) for those of us already having some HK sights in possesion? I like them BTW!

Looks nice put me down for some of those as well Cameron along with just about everything else you offer. Box mags and Drum as well.

[xflowinA3 12]

Those look awesome, how long do we have to wait??

[vitamink 90]

Now that is slick. You know i'm in.

[HarvKY 72]

Good idea

 

a FWIW: do you think it will be possible to use standard HK front sight inserts as a replacement and just dremel/file the top area to match your unit?

 

I'm thinking of the tritium replacement insert ring/sight post that several companies market?

 

+1 on the question about availability timetable

 

Continued success

Very nice, but that is what we have come to expect from you.

[Tram 11]

Nice!!

[nayo 6]

I am not a big fan of the HK sights!! but those just look sexy

[scattergunner 12]

wow.im drooling. i have been waiting for something like this ever since i retired the halo quad in favor of the chaos ex-quad. very nice indeed. when can we buy some and how much are you projecting they will cost???

[mscottrogers 56]

nice work!

[FRC64 2]

You read my mind on these sights. I just wish you would have released them at the same time as your Chaos Extended Quad Rail. I bought a UTG Quad for my most recent Saiga because I wanted to retain the use of my iron sights when my red dot was dismounted.

 

Well, now I'll be able to pick up my next quad from you and maybe upgrade the Saiga with the UTG rail.

 

Again, nice job on the HK style sights.

 

P.S. I prefer the drill and tap set up to keep these as low as possible.

[Cobra 76 two 2,677]

Good job Cam! I like the way you designed the front sight especially, the shape and the open top are excellent! These will be a much better option for Saigas and I see a particularly good use for the open top design to work with my SBS rail design. I need to get with you on some specific dimensions if you don't mind. My rail is designed to work with and mount to the standard HK front sight, but I think yours will be a much better option.

Will there be any other mounting options designed? As others have already said, a familiar QD picatinni clamp style mount would obviously be a great thing for these, to make them mountable to any 1913 rail system. I'm sure you already have something similar in mind...from the way it appears on your CAD drawings they will mount via a threaded hole in the rail.

Is the front sight going to be strictly a steel blade, or is there plans to use an AR style front sight post so that users can swap out to their preferred style of sight post?

[cvhanh20 1,052]

Why not make them "clamp on" to reach a much larger customer base?

We did design a clamp on like this: But our main focus for now will be on the bolt on ones.

 

 

Coupla questions... First, Boba Debt's question: why not just make M1913-compatible clamp-on sights? Two, how high off the rail does the aperture sit?

The main reason for the bolt on style is because the bolt on can adjust side to side as where the slide on are non adjustable unless we make them a little taller. The aperture on the bolted on style sits about .500 off the top of the rail.

There will be a back order area on our website with in the week!

We will be manufacturing these 100% so sorry, but I doubt do to the nature of the low design that any other HK parts would work.

 

Those look awesome, how long do we have to wait??

The wait? I'm running 100 complete units first run, this is new design so I've got to get all ducks in a roll, so to speak, I think we should be shipping some in 45 days.

 

Good idea

There is a very good chance we will offer different insert rings for the front sight.

Yes there is a clamp on design. What I have ran into with the clamp on is this, I will have to add a little more height if it is to be adjustable from side to side, which I feel that a sight should be adjustable. It would not be a lot, but it will be some. I trying to offer people something thats not out there so thats why I focusing on the bolt on style, plus the bolt style looks more permanent and like they belong there IMO.

[sapper1371usmc 107]

If and when you come out with the clamp-on style, I'll be down for a set.

Please let us know when your back-order section is up and running so we can sign up!

 

Any idea on a price range?

[protected static 19]

Thanks for the replies, Cameron. What constitutes "a little more height" for the clamp-on design? A clamp-on version with an aperture 1/2" above the rail would be a perfect replacement for my Kel-Tec SU-16's rear sight.

[KC913 324]

I would def. be down for a couple sets if they were clamp-on, as long as the price isn't through the roof.

[6500rpm 670]

Sign me up chief, the lower the better. Great idea

 

 

[setlab 11]

Awesome, the lack of low profile sights available were really the only reason I haven't bought your rail yet. I may have missed it but how much higher are these HK sights compared to the ones people TIG weld on?

[BobAsh 582]

Nice looking part, and a great idea. Those HK take-offs aren't going to be available forever!

[Bridis 319]

I already have your extended quad rail system. You mentioned an option to fit the sights to previously sold rails. Do you have a cost for that yet? It would also be cool if you had a price for a replacement top rail with sights.

 

I'm very interested in this. Keep us informed on price and availability.

FULL OF WIN!!!

[MT Predator 2,294]

One more question. Will these cowitness with a mini RDS like a Fastfire or Jpoint mounted on the rail?
