Good Cause (AR-15 Sights)
AR15
ArmaLite sold its rights to the AR-10    and AR15    to Colt in 1959 after which the AR15 was adopted by the United States military    under the designation M16. Colt continued to use the AR15 trademark for its    semi-automatic variants. The "AR" in AR15    parts comes from the Armalite name and does not in fact stand for    assault rifle as is commonly believed. Today the AR15    Accessories
   and its variations are manufactured by many companies and have captured the    affection of sport shooters and police forces around the world due to their    low cost, accuracy, and modularity. Please refer to the M16    accessories for a more complete history of the development and    evolution of the AR15    parts and derivatives.
Some revolutionary or otherwise notable features of the AR15:
Aircraft grade aluminum receiver 
   Modular design allows for a variety of accessories, renders repair AR15    sight
   Small caliber, high velocity round 
   Synthetic stock and grips do not warp or splinter 
   Front ironsight adjustable for elevation 
   Rear ironsight adjustable for windage and distance 
   Wide array of optical devices available in addition to or as replacements of    ironsights 
   Semi-automatic and automatic variants of the "AR15"    are effectively identical in appearance. Automatic variants have a rotating    selective fire switch, allowing the operator to select between three modes:    safe, semi-automatic, and either automatic or three round burst depending on    model. In semi-automatic only variants, the selector only rotates between safe    and semi-automatic.
