    Of course on a secondary sighting system doesn’t need to be irons, though it’s still the most practical choice on a pistol. A red optic and a green laser can be viable.
    I understand your point, and that is how I run my carbine-a fixed front sight, rear folded down. It seems this might be personal preference, although that is sometimes not respected these days.
    A Streamlight TLR8 w/green laser is attached to my personal 19 MOS. I’ve worked with it in reduced light, and I think it quite viable.

    FSB with a folded rear is my preference too.

    FYI, Scalarworks just announced 1.93" folding BUIS.
