About this part
The VLTOR VST (VLTOR Front Sight Tower) Clamp-on with QD Mount - VST-1C is a gas system part.
From the manufacturer
The VST folding front sight and gas block is an all-steel, flip-up design, with spring loaded detents. There is no lock so if the sight gets hit, the sight will fold down rather than damage a locking mechanism. The VST-1 series incorporates a QD sling swivel cup mount while the VST-2 does not. All models use an AK47/AKM/AK74 front sight post. This allows the user adjust the sight, for elevation, with the use of a simple AK cleaning kit. Despite the VST’s solid construction, it actually weighs less than a standard A2 front sight tower. Note: Removal and replacement of existing front sight or gas block is required.
