Abstract

The disclosure relates to an adjustable rear iron sight for a firearm. The rear iron sight includes features that maintain its various components in a state of alignment, that permit the rear iron sight to be locked in raised and lowered positions, and that bias a dual aiming aperture against movement while nevertheless permitting the user to easily rotate the dual aiming aperture to switch between its large-diameter and small-diameter apertures.
