I’m building a retro XM177E3. This front sight is period correct other than the bayonet lug that should not be on there. It’s nothing a 4” grinder can’t handle… then add a bit of CeraKote and there you have it. This same front sight is also a suitable replacement for any AR15 SP-1, A1, or A2 as well. I would not have any problems whatsoever if I ever needed this front sight as a replacement part…!

Hi there, thank you for your feedback on our Luth-AR A1 Height AR-15 Front Sight Base. We're happy to hear that it is a suitable replacement for your retro XM177E3 and other AR15 models. We apologize for the bayonet lug, but we appreciate your resourcefulness in handling it with a 4' grinder and CeraKote. We stand by the quality of our product and are glad to know you would have no hesitation using it as a replacement part.
