Griffin Armaments Micro Modular Sights™ (M2 Sights) (https://www.griffinarmament.com/category-s/1863.htm) are built for the purpose of being a small, lightweight, yet durable, and modular sight set. Most notable is the patent pending interchangeable mounting plate system that allows the sights to be configured in the traditional vertical format or angle mounted depending on user preference.


Griffin Armament is proud to introduce affordable Micro Modular Sights™. (M2) compatible with Picatinny rail systems. Griffin M2 sights offer an industry first, patent pending, modular base plate system. Constructed from QPQ Treated 17-4 and ordnance grade steel, Griffin M2 Sights were designed to be the correct product for every backup sight application.

A shooter can use these durable, low profile sights in a 12 o'clock mounted application while having the flexibility to reconfigure them to ambidextrous 45 degree angle sights using the alternate and available angle plates. This flexibility ensures these sights can be used by anyone and will never end up in a box of undesirable legacy kit. The full M2 deployment kit includes the front and rear sight assemblies as well as both vertical and angled bases for a complete modular system. However, sights and bases are available separately for users who wish to buy parts as needed. The front A2 sight provides elevation adjustment while ensuring maximum aftermarket support for your favorite post, be it tritium, fiber optic, match grade, or otherwise. An extremely low profile, snag resistant, slotted rear windage screw, affords easy but more importantly secure adjustability.

Robust spring tension of both front and rear flip up assemblies ensures accurate repeatability every time the sight towers are actuated.
Never before has a product in this category offer this degree of flexibility. Griffin M2 Sights have a minimal foot print, and are among the smallest backup sights on the market. For a mere 2 and half ounces your rifle can be equipped with a durable iron sight system, to provide aiming capability in rain, snow, or fog, on or off axis without dependence on batteries or glass.

Deployment kit (including both plate sets) $184.95 MSRP (https://www.griffinarmament.com/product-p/gam2dk.htm)
Angle only kit $144.00 MSRP (https://www.griffinarmament.com/product-p/gam2s.htm)

I like how low profile the rear is, not much to scrape a knuckle on.

I like the slim profiles of these sights.

I'm sold. Great idea - I'm cross dominant so a lefty rifle shooter. One product that makes you feel like left-handed = leprosy has been offset sights.

I love the bases, slick and simple. I'm a sucker for simple and clever modularity.

So are they attached by set screw?

Looks that way, threaded into the sight body, which is dovetailed onto the mount, and in the case of them being on the 12 rail, the screw acts as the lug and puts the rest of the assembly in tension. I'm assuming the cantilever amounts use a blind hole to accomplish the same task - but with two screws acting as recoil lugs to offset the higher forces that the cantilever can create.

Extremely clever.

Yes attached by set screw in any configuration. 18/inch pounds with a drop of blue threadlocker if you prefer.

Thanks for the positive comments guys. We've had these in development for about a year. We're extremely happy with the end product. I think alot of people will like to have affordable metal micro backups.

Sorry about the small pics. Photobucket is not working for me today. I would appreciate a recommendation for a photo host easy for an old dino to copy/paste larger pics.

A size comparison with Mbus Pro and showing scope clearance. I'm liking these a lot. Nice simple sight picture. Hopfully MN will warm up enough to try them soon. Click to see larger.

I use WEVO to host all my photos. Works for me since I mainly hang out here, and I don't post a lot of pics.

I don't see any WEVO option to add pics on this reply page.

Gost. I started a pic post thread in the lounge so as not to clutter up this one. Please delete all mine after the posted pics. And follow my "tree" confusion over there. Thanks.

I received the Griffin M2 sights and have to say I think they hit a home run with these BUIS. I'm extremely impressed with these sights and the fact that they're priced well under the Bobro and Rainier equivalents while offering an extra option of the offset mount sets them apart. I just wish I'd ordered more during the introductory pricing.

Probably going to wind-up with a set of these sooner rather than later!

Was just on their site looking at the taper mount flash hider and was looking at these. They look great. Little pricey but look great

Did you get the whole kit ? Does it seem to lock up good with base ?

Any new range/usage updates on these from those of you that purchased them? I'm thinking of picking up a set for the Battle Kitty build.

Thanks. Appreciate it...

Only shot with them once. They are what they are, a decent set of sights with multiple mounting options.

And something is def up with posting pics in this thread. No option to upload directly from your computer.
