My font sight post notch is way to low (can barley see it) so I would like to know which is the correct version so I can buy the right tool to adjust the height to the correct level.

2) When installing a real-steel pistol grip on a WE M4A1, how do you deal with the selector spring? In the stock WE pistol grip, there is a little hole drilled into the grip for the spring to sit - but in a real-steel pistol grip there is nothing. Should you just "squish/squeeze" the spring in or attempt to drill a hole similar to the stock WE pistol grip?
Not looking at it atm (at work) if I recall it is the A2. If you have some 5.56/7.62 kicking around you can use that to adjust your front sight

Real steel pistol grips use the selector tension spring & pin hole.

I think some earlier models didn't have it, as the assembly was a bit different. My RS tango down grip does have this hole though (don't forget the lock washer also)


(if it doesn't have it, just drill it!)

Where did you get your RS pistol grip from?
