AR-15 · Sights · Range
Real Avid AR-15 Front Sight Adjuster: A1 and A2 in one compact tool The AVAR15FSA is double-sided: five pins for compatible A1 and four pins for compatible A2 front sight posts. It is used for the elevation adjustment of the front sight – not as a general sight pusher or tool for lateral rear sight adjustment.

Black-Raptor Quick Check
A small range tool with a clear purpose. The purchase decision depends on the number of pins and free access to the front sight post. “AR-15” alone is no guarantee that every proprietary front sight fits.


Fits well if … your front sight has a confirmed A1 or A2 geometry and you want to adjust the front sight height compactly at the range.


Fits less well if … your front sight is proprietary, protected, or geometrically different, or if you want to perform windage or pressing work.


Features with practical impact


5-pin side For compatible A1 front sight geometries. Check the number of pins and clearance before the first contact point.


4-pin side For compatible A2 geometries. The head must seat symmetrically and fully.


Knurled center Provides a direct grip without additional pliers or leverage extension.


Stainless steel, black-oxidized Robust compact tool for the workbench and range bag.


Limits and bad purchase-
Risks

A1/A2 is the interface: proprietary or different aftermarket sights are not automatically compatible.
Only elevation adjustment: The tool is neither a sight pusher nor a rear sight windage tool.

Practical Tips


Check pin count before pressing Compare tool end and front sight post in good light. Only even contact of all pins is a sensible approach.


Document small changes Note starting position and correction direction and then check the effect at the approved shooting range.

Black Raptor · honestly rated
A useful small tool if the geometry fits. The most important check to avoid a bad purchase is not the weapon name, but the actual A1/A2 pin interface.
