I recently got a decent price , , on a heavy barrel fluted stainless rifle, with a scope its shooting 1/2" hundred yard groups with good ammo,
but it came set up for a scope mount without any precise metallic peep sites
all the flip up sites the local gun-shop carry's are low quality crap, some are even plastic, or die cast zinc
Id really prefer to add a back-up precision machined set of flip-up rifle sights

Troy, PRI, Midwest Industries, Magpul.
You may also consider either folding or fixed 45degree mount sights. Dueck Defense does A2 style fixed 45degree sights which are nice, Troy and Magpul (and others, I’m sure) do a nice 45degree folding set. Having them on the side allows you to immediately transition without removing the primary optic, and eliminates some of the fitting issues you might find with fitting folding rear sights under the eyebox of certain optics.

Glad I could be of service. The dueck’s are bulkier than some guys might want, but they’re a full figured A2 style sight, meaning you’re not compromising anything for adjustment or durability. Just a matter of getting your cheekweld right.
