Question regarding AR15 front sight compatability

[jc89]

This is what my AR looks like now minus optics:

Would this front sight/carry handle combo work? It seems like the carry handle could fit on the Picatinny, but how would the front sight be attached?

It attaches via the pins, you will need that front sight and drill then ream for the size pins provided with the front sight. You can see in the second pic you provided the pins thats designed to hold it on the barrel.


You can always cheat a little and use this front sight.....

It simply clamps on.
