What do you fellas like to run for AR iron sights? Like the flip up jobs that mount on the pic rail.
We don’t have them here anymore but we do have neutered straight pull spring return versions as a workaround to our laws in Canada.
12.5” barrel, 20 round mag, accurate. Should make a nice farm gun, has a cheap red dot on it now

MBUS flippys are what i run. They cowitness through my romeo5's nicely, mount absolutely rock solid on the rails and have no play anywhere. Good price point too as a set can be had for around $90 to your door.
How do you like the romeo5? I have zero experience with red dots but want to try one out on an AR9 that I built. I am looking at the romeo5 and holosun 403r.

I have had zero issues with them. I like a basic red dot with a shake awake feature. There are however several knock off romeo 5 sights out there that are hard to tell the difference so i recommend buying straight from Sig or a reputable place like PSA. Ebay and Amazong are where most of the fakes are coming from so beware buying from there. After seeing this torture test, i was further sold on them.

Wow, can't argue with that kind of durability!

I bought a couple of these Blackhawk leather iwb holsters
M&P 9 and Springfield xds
They are so nice I ordered 3 more
Like 30.00 for 5 holsters
Made in Italy
The xds holster fit my shield plus perfectly.
Just like the M&P holster

The slide profile is similar on the m&p series and the Blackhawk fits the 2.0 holster perfectly and can be tensioned.IMG_20250119_115402.jpgIMG_20250119_115412.jpg
The Springfield xds holster fits the shield plus perfectly.

If they look anything like the pictures, they should be OK. I have hybrids for the iwb stuff now. While not the most comfortable, they work well. Mine are horsehide, so sweat doesn't penetrate, unlike bovine leather.

@Czed Taurus has a new GX2 you’ll probably like for the price. A little smaller than the G3C
I'd buy one especially at 210.00 my shop has them on sale
But i just bought a gx4 carry toro
And i have my original gx4s
Really no issues with any of them the gx4 i pocket carry don't even notice it.

It comes in a nice kit with 3 batteries
A mount for a picatinny rail.
A optics plate and a variety of screws.

I use the A4 style rear carry handle/sight on mine with the F marked front sight base. Down here you can get a USA made one for about $80.00 or a decent imported knockoff for about $30.00. Since autoloaders are no longer an option for you, you may want to check out the Ruger American Ranch 5.56 that uses AR mags and has a threaded barrel. I love mine, in fact I like it better than my actual AR carbine
