I stress that I dont care making open sights better is a good thing imho and of course your just setting out to make the corect hight post, but I think you said it was for a service rifle build so fyi from the match code

Page 25 9.3.3.1 AR15 Open Sights: A1/A2 sights, flat top receivers may use a carrying handle sight or a clip on Milspec type of sight. Front post must be a minimum of 0.050 inch and rear peephole sizes are to be no smaller than A2 Milspec standard. Sights that co-witness with an Aimpoint style scope are acceptable. Fibre optic or “Hi Viz” type front posts are not acceptable.

It could also be a issue under both the "as issued" and "advandge" rullings.

Most people wouldent notice,and of those geeks that do most like me wouldent care but as you seemed to take your service class optics hunt seriously I thought you may just want to make sure you didnt indavertanly get caught out
